My tastes are very eclectic. Everything from Erik Satie to Eric B. & Rakim, and just about everything else in between. My all time favorite song is "Yellow Ledbetter" by Pearl Jam. You could listen to the lyrics over and over, but everytime he performs it, they change a little bit. It's the melody that has me transfixed, sort of like listening to "Little Wing" by SRV.
Movies
I like them...for the most part, anyway.
Television
Family Guy, Robot Chicken...shit that will make me laugh.
Books
Eh, I've read a few in my time. We did a lot of reading growing up, and it definitely helped broaden my horizons and imagination. When a child has to use his imagination as much as we did when reading, it raises the bar and the sky's the limit...thanks, mom.
Heroes
My parents: both for their amazing strength. Marcheline Bertrand, for being such a wonderful human being and her amazing strength, as well.
About me: I can't really sum myself up in a single paragraph, so I won't try; I will, however, give you a little 411 about myself: Native Californian, but not a native Angeleno. Born on Alcatraz (yes, THAT Alcatraz), first decade of my life was in Oakland, but I spent the formative years of my life growing up in northern New Mexico: Las Vegas (yes, there IS a Las Vegas, New Mexico), to be exact. Now I'm back in California, only this time I'm in the City of Angels. If you want to know more, just ask.

Who I'd like to meet: You. Maybe.
A Cherokee elder was teaching his grandchildren about life. He said to them, "A fight is going on inside me...It is a terrible fight, and it is between two wolves. One wolf represents fear, anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, pride and superiority. The other wolf stands for joy, peace, love, hope, sharing, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, friendship, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith. This same fight is going on inside of you and every other person, too."
They thought about it for a minute and then one child asked his grandfather, "Which wolf will win?"
The old Cherokee simply replied..."The one I feed."

Well Wovoka, it's all relative. Today I was driving down Wilshire and I saw the West Side Rentals Man out in the street dancing around in his little outfit, you know shorts, cape, etc., but now with a stuffed fish on his head a-la "Finding Nemo". So compared to him you're fine.
