Laughing. Making people laugh. Watching people and things that make me laugh. Learning. Always.
Music
Anything but thrash metal and super-cheesy R&B. Oh, and not elevator music. That sucks.
Movies
Foreign, non-axis of stupidity stuff (ie, non English speaking films). Non-Anglophiles have to work harder to get noticed, and it shows in the quality of their work. Anything beautiful, like "La Cité Des Enfants Perdu". And genuinely funny stuff.
Television
Don't own one. Would like to be on one though.
Books
Are generally used for propping other things up. But when a book grabs me I will spend two days in bed until I finish it.
Heroes
Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, Aung San Suu Ky, the Dalai Lamas (any edition, they are always pretty cool), Tracey Ullman, Bette Davis, Marion Davies, Buster Keaton, August Boal, Dario Fo, Franca Rama, and all the unsung heroes of the world who stand up for themselves and others on a daily basis.
About me: Mildly psychotic dwarf with irrepressible energy. Well, I'm not really a dwarf, I'm just kind of short. And I'm not psychotic although I did have a mini-breakdown when I was 17 (that's sort of like a weekend mini-break, but with better drugs and free accommodation). And then there was the bulimia, but I'm pretty stable there now, except perhaps at Easter, Christmas, and any of the other annual chocolate-giving festivals. The irrepressible energy bit is true though.
I like using everything I've got; brain, body, heart and soul. I see my soul's sole purpose as being to facilitate; if I make someone laugh then I'm happy to give some comic relief, and I really get off on giving other people ideas to make their dreams fly. I hate people who are stingy with their knowledge and creativity, like these are finite things which must be banked and cannot be shared. Tight-arsed twats!
Who I'd like to meet: I don't get this question really. Is it literal? Like who I'd like to meet in myspace? Or is it more of a theoretical question?
In general I like funny, creative, energetic people. But if time, space, money and reality were not an issue I'd like to spank Anthony Hopkins arse for making that crap film with Chris Tucker. Surely he can't need the money? I'd also like to line up every single deity ever conceived by mankind for an egg and spoon race and see who wins.

I was going to get a personalised license plate though it’s cheaper just to maintain my current license plates and change my name… to NJY 151 I found a motivational verse. It said, “Never be afraid to be yourself,” signed anonymous. I once had an identity crisis or at least I think it was me.
