You probably wanted me to put Gandhi or Martin Luther King Jr. -- well, they're on everybody's permanent hero list unless you're some kind of idiot... so they go without saying.
No love for Mother Teresa or various Popes though. Africa says, "Thanks for the AIDS, ya fucks."

Also, this makes me giggle and cry at the same time:
Who I'd like to meet: People to go to jazz bars and eat wacky food with.
People who don't just accept information as true because it has a footnote.
People who thought the Billy the Mime Abortion scene in "The Aristocrats" special features was hilarious.
People who know who Bill Hicks was.
People who can't find their favorite artist's CD at Wal-Mart.
People who yell out in rage after watching the State of the Union address.
