The chance, poughkeepsie,nyFighting off 200lb Metalheads, Punk Rockers, and hardcore kids gave me the soul of the warrior. When the music hits you (or some guys elbow), you really do feel no pain.Candiria, Cooter, HateBreed, When Dreams Die, Beefcake, Bigwig,

"If you're talking about combat -- as it is -- well then, baby you'd better train every part of your body!" LeeBlade, Gangs of New York, Way of the Gun, Saving Private Ryan, The Matrix Trilogy,Ong-Bak,anything with Bruce Lee.

Books:
I love Books, I eat books, a couple a week at least.
Rather than list hundreds of authors, I'll go with recommendations. Read "Its Easier than you think" Sylvia Boorstein, Hesse's "Siddartha" Fritjof Capra "The tao of Physics" Or anything by Alan Watts or the Dalai Lama...if your interested in changing your worldview. F'n westerners, cmon already.
Other choices, real easy to relate to are "The Doh of Homer" and "the tao of Pooh".
My shelf of honor includes.
David Foster Wallace
Kurt Vonnegut
Milan Kundera
Herman Hesse
John Irving
Aldous Huxley
Phillip K. Dick
Chuck Palahniuck
Jonathan Safran Foer "Everything is Illuminated"
Yann Martel "life of pi"since i think you should all give up or limit your meat intake, try reading Sinclairs "The Jungle" or Ive heard good things about "Skinny Bitch"oh pleasure reading....roald dahl, dan brown, piers anthony, isaac asimov
Heroes:
Everyday Hero's like the guy who helps you shovel your car out in the middle of winter or the lady who gives you directions and a smile when your lost in a strange town.But heres some monumental acts of heroismYou'll find that this image is similiar to my own "samsara", similiar subject matter and color choice. i had never seen a Chagall before i painted "samsara". Artist are the modern shamans and somehow we are connected.12 Paintings commissioned by Cozumel, Buffalo NY
