Who I'd like to meet:
People are people. Male, female, rich poor, famous or not... makes no difference. He's happy to meet anybody, and they should be happy to meet him. That's not to say there aren't people and artists he admires, but they're just working stiffs like him when it comes right down to it. And the more he meets, the more this is proven true.Companies

Interests
General
Cartoons and Caricature, especially the work of Al Hirschfeld, DC Comics, Zombie Movies, 50s and 60s Kitsch, Ultralounge Music, Vintage Illustration, Universal Monster movies, Filmmaking, Playwriting, Acting, Singing, Digital Photography, Silent Film Comedies and SO much more.Music
I like a wide range of music, everything from Albinoni to Frank Zappa. I don't listen to a lot of modern country or Gangsta Rap, but that's not to say it doesn't happen. Basically, I like music that makes me smile, and that's on a case by case basis.
Movies
..
It'd be easier to say what movies I don't like! Generally, that would be Russian Science Fiction (unless I'm looking for a cure for insomnia), and or The Return of Captain Invincible. I mean, and film that features Christopher Lee singing in S&M Leather gear, you'd think would be a slam dunk, but... no.
As far as favorites, the top of the list, and this depends on the day, is either Raiders of the Lost Ark or Terry Gilliam's Brazil.
I *love* horror movies, especially the old Universal Monsters films of the 30's and 40's, and the oeuvre of George A. Romero and John Landis. Shaun of the Dead is a slice of Fried Gold.
Buster Keaton and Harold Lloyd were cinematic gods.
Rankin-Bass Animagic rocks.
Both Young Einstein & Young Frankenstein share space on my DVD shelf with the experimental films of Maya Deren. I'm starting to ramble, as the full list is entirely too long.
I'm also a sucker for a good film noir... May I suggest a little known gem entitled His Kind of Woman with Robert Mitchum, Jane Russell and the amazing Vincent Price? Equal parts brutal and hilarious.Television
I'm digging Doctor Who for the first time in almost twenty years.
Other than that?
Boston Legal
Smallville
All three CSI programs
NCIS
How I Met Your Mother
Two and a Half Men
Mythbusters
Good Eats
I miss Buffy, Out of Practice and The Muppet Show.
I miss the golden days of smart criminals and smarter cops.Books
Currently, I'm digging WORLD WAR Z by Max Brooks.Heroes
Anyone who loves what they do for a living, especially in the arts, and makes a good living at it. If you're flush in the creative world you are my hero.

(1. It's legal to purchase and use potentially fatal explosives.
(2. Being drunk before noon on enough beer to kill a Clydesdale.
(3. Self-esteem increases each year you're NOT the moron who drowned at the lake.
(4. You can wear your Captain America T-Shirt without looking geeky.
(5. It's the perfect collision of crass commercialism and phony patriotism.
(6. Because time-travel hasn't been invented, we'll never know how depressed our Founding Fathers would be at the way we f*ck*d up their dream of liberty and freedom.
(7. That girl --- you know the one --- who always shows up in the daisy-dukes and a tube top.
(8. We tell children in our neighborhood that are scared by fireworks, it's only a drive-by and they calm down.
(9. You can serve guests anything, including walrus carcass if you barbeque it first.
(10. They haven't figured out a way to make it a religious holiday yet.

"Oh, a whirling dervish
And a dancing bear
Or a Ginger Rogers and a Fred Astaire
And the boys in Kenya
And the girls in France
yes, we all are partners
in this cosmic dance.
Nice, nice, very nice
Nice, nice, very nice
So many people
in the same device."

---- Blindsight
By Peter Watts
Vampires ... They're back now, after all— raised from the grave with the voodoo of paleogenetics, stitched together from junk genes and fossil marrow steeped in the blood of sociopaths and high-functioning autistics.... A handful of his genes live on in your own body so it too can rise from the dead, here at the edge of interstellar space. Nobody gets past Jupiter without becoming part vampire."
