I'd like to meet:
People who are honest, generous, kind, with some dreams or ambition.
The kind of people who believe in love and commitment, who know that life is too short to engage in enmity toward themselves or others, and endeavor to put aside fear, resentment, bitterness, and blame, so that they can live the life they were meant to live.

Jazz, Blues, Rock, Classic Rock, a bit of everything
Movies:
Braveheart, Gladiator, Taxi Driver, The Professional, Caddyshack, Barfly, Old School, Fifth Element, Magnolia, tons of others

Heroes:
My Dad - who makes me laugh. My Mom, who always did her best, and has found her niche writing our family's history. My daughter, Heather, for her strength. My uncle Richard. Anyone who gets up each day, puts on a smile, and goes out into the world to do their part - and Sponge Bob, just because.
