Motorcycles...Touring, Roadracing (on racing circuits, NOT public roads!), reading about them, riding them...everything.Guitars - Collecting, playing, listening to, looking at, reading about...again, everything about them.Photography - Look for my motorsports photgraphy in Roadracing World magazine.Reading - Love to read. Fiction, non-fiction, old, new, high literature, low escapism...doesn't matter.Computers & technology - I'm a geek, what can I say?Traveling - everywhere and everywhen is always better than the there and now.
Carl Fogarty, Stephen Hawking, Ben Folds, Steve Jobs, Andy Rooney, Kurt Vonnegut, Lisa Loeb, Valentino Rossi, Ashrita Furman, Augusten Burroughs, ...oh, there's a great many people, I suppose. But I'd like most to meet them at the same time - everyone seated around an enormous dinner table, or perhaps seated in groups at smaller tables, and made to change tables with each new course. Something like that.

Honestly, I quit watching TV on a regular basis about 3 years ago. Although, if I were to start that nasty habit again, I'd watch The Sopranos, MotoGP racing, AMA Superbike racing, The Simpsons, and Jeopardy.
Ernest Hemmingway, Orson Scott Card, Kurt Vonnegut, Robert Jordan, Isaac Asimov, Douglas Adams, David Sedaris, Robert Heinlein, Clive Cussler, Tom Clancy...anything you put in front of me, really.
