General
Well let's see:I'm into acting, film, theater, video games, good books, good times, good friends, and having a good life.
I'm a cynic and very sarcastic when I want to. That's why I do rants. It's venting in a way that I could use later on. I happen to think some comedians are just funny philosophers and one of my favorite thinkers is Bill Hicks. If you know who that is, you understand me already. If not, pick up a copy of Rant in E-Minor.

Heroes
I don't really have heroes. I respect heroic feats after they happened and give the people their due. Only one person falls under the title "hero" for me and that would be Eddie Izzard. He's the only other hetero cross-dresser I've seen out there. And he defines what he and I are in a way that makes sense. The term is male lesbian or male tomboy. We're just that into women. But we still men and aren't trying to switch genders. "Running Jumping, Climing Trees, then putting on make-up when you get up there." That's one of his lines. He's the only one I see that makes me feel OK.
