Television:
Personally, I dislike most technology. Don't watch TV (though I watch movies) and detest cell-phones most of all... I only signed up to this thing 'cuz Sam asked me to. Don't understand TV/Computer junkies at all... What a waste of life. They go to work, live for their kids and in their 'free' time they watch TV and their kids live on their playstations. And people think Zombies are make-believe!
Books:
My favorite story of all time is, Lord of the Rings, I am a nerd about it (If it's not broke, don't fix it my gaffer used to say - heehee), medieval history, reference books on growing things, fairy tales, myths and legend, 'Black Elk Speaks', Poe, Lovecraft... Gothic Tales - aka Penny Dreadfuls...
Heroes:
Don't have any *Heroes* per se... Admire all who have gone before and made this world a better place to live in... Regardless of whether I know their name. There will always be unsung valour.
