I'll keep it as simple as I possibly can with this one. Everything interests me to a certain degree. So much to do, yet, so little time. Or, Is it? Too much Time and not enough to do with it? I feel not the need to state everything I may or may not engage myself in(Socially or Personally), to falsify my self and your interpretation of who I am. I will be judged regardless, so why should I bother? Anyway, I like to write. Can you you tell?
Anyone with an OPEN MIND. Anyone that feels the need to ask all the tough questions about LIFE, HISTORY, RELIGION or POLITICS. Anyone who has felt that they have been slighted by the ones who are supposed to guide us. Anyone that just feels the need to reconsider everything that they have been led to believe. I know, I know.....I'm Cynical. Am I not alone w/ this theory? Trust me, I'm not holding my breath.
This one is way too hard to put into words. I'm into many genres of music. I can get into almost anything. I tend to gravitate more towards hard-rock & metal.
Movies. How to begin? Like anyone else, I enjoy a wide variety of motion pictures. Comedy, Horror, Sci-Fi, Drama, Documentary, etc...I'll just name a few of my favorites in no particular order so you might get what I'm into. BRAVEHEART, SAVING PRIVATE RYAN, RED DAWN, FRIDAY, UNFORGIVEN, SEVEN, ALIEN & ALIENS, PREDATOR, THE POSIEDON ADVENTURE, BLAZING SADDLES, JAWS, LAST OF THE MOHICANS, GLORY, STAND BY ME, MAJOR LEAGUE, SLAPSHOT, THE REPLACEMENTS, TIN CUP.Damn, there are so many more. I could go on forever w/ this one. That sort've sums it up. If only the nutshell where bigger.
Yeah, I watch a little TV from time to time. Maybe more than I'd like to admitt or realize. So what. We all do. That's right, you do too. Yeah, I typed that for you. Don't fool yourself. We all love that candy-coated, guilty pleasure called television. Anyway, I'm guilty and here are a few of my COUCH POTATO crimes...11pm Local News, BUFFALO BILLS & BUFFALO SABRES games,highlights & info(absolute MUST SEE), SPORTSCENTER.... Now, the aforementioned are essentials. I need to see that stuff. If not, I feel somewhat empty(LOL). The next are recreational, if I miss a few shows here or there.....no big deal, but, I do try to keep up.....SOPRANOS, ENTOURAGE, ROME, LUCKY LOUIE, MIND OF MENCIA, REAL TIME W/ BILL MAHER, THE O'REILLY FACTOR(because I cant stand the guy) & anything on the HISTORY, MILITARY or SCIENCE channels. If I'm not watching any of previously stated. I'll be channel surfing through the waves of infomercials that have swamped late night broadcasting. Girls Gone Wild...lock me up and throw away the key because I'm guilty, Guilty, GUILTY.
In no particular order...H.G. Welles - WAR OF THE WORLDS, Bram Stoker - DRACULA, Sun Tzu - THE ART OF WAR, Henry David Thoreau - WALDEN, Charles Darwin - THE ORIGIN OF SPECIES, Stephen Crane - THE RED BADGE OF COURAGE, Stephen King - SALEM'S LOT, Homer - THE ODYSSEY, William Shakespeare - HAMLET, Tennesse Williams - THE GLASS MANAGERIE, Micheal Alexander - BEOWULF
Many people, from all walks of life, here and gone, have influenced me in a positive way. For that, I am truly grateful. Yet, I wouldn't go as far as to say that these people are "HEROES" to me. There is only one in my life thus far that I might be able to proclaim as a "HERO". Thank you MOM, I'm forever in your debt.
