Addicted to knowledge, intellectual
conversations, progressive rock music, gaming (old school
RPG's like D&D), FREEDOM, INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS, JUSTICE (and other ideals which
transcend modern politics):
Music
I like music of any genre that inspires the mind to escape the mundane. Music that speaks truth to power, challenges what we have been conditioned to think. A lot of classic rock did this. Some "alternative" music did this. Some contemporary hip hop does this. A lot of underground and independent artists still do this. I'm raging against the machine, and I appreciate music that provides an appropriate soundtrack. (I wasn't going to plug any bands by name, but oh well... Rage's music may be 15 years old but was clearly written for today).
Movies
The first Matrix movie was the quintessential movie that broke the paradigm. A Scanner Darkly hit the nail on the head. V For Vendetta knocked it out of the park. As much as the Star Wars prequels have been panned, they do one thing well - illustrate how a republic can collapse into despotism while "freedom is lost to thunderous applause."
Television
TV has pretty much gone down the sh*thole since the advent of "reality TV", though "Beauty and the Geek" was a noteable exception in that genre--worth watching by simple virtue of presenting the way things should be. I never miss "Freedom Watch" with Judge Napolitano (no relation to that psycho head of DHS), though it hasn't made it from the web to live TV yet. Likewise I try to catch it whenever Ron Paul is on... TG for Youtube. And yes, there are few oldies like Smallville and Supernatural that I still watch when I want an escape.
Anyone who has ever had the courage to stand up against the status quo, to go against the grain and make a real difference. Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr. for example. Ron Paul, Dennis Kucinich, and Alex Jones for the modern day.

About me: I was always the quiet, shy kid in school. You know, the little guy whose IQ was a higher number than his body weight. The good news is I'm not all that quiet and shy anymore, and still have a decent IQ. The bad news is my body weight surpassed it awhile back. C'est la vie.

Who I'd like to meet: Creative, intelligent and open-minded people who are secure in who they are. Those with dreams they aren't afraid to embrace and pursue to the ends of the earth. Those who aren't afraid to be themselves and to hell with anyone who doesn't like it. And of course, those intelligent enough to realize just how screwed up the world really is right now, yet courageous enough to do something about it.
Please read this it is so very important. President Obama will come to the event to address our issues if we can get one hundred thousand plays on our video for advertisement. Please help us out. Too many children have had to suffer. Comment the video as well to let him know how important this issue is.
Let’s not forget our Heavenly Dad this Father’s day. Lets find and make the time to talk to Him and give thanks for the many things that He does for us and our children as well, because He definitely wants to hear from us, His children.

I praise God for the return of Jesus when finally God’s Kingdom on earth shall be establish and all who live there will live by the law of love, where none shall kill nor die forever more. May God bless you and keep you for that day. Peace and happy Memorial day!
And it shall come to pass in the last days, [that] the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
