Movies
Anything where things get blown up.
Television
When I die, I would like to reincarnate as Jack Bauer on 24.
Books
Whatever is in the library, odds are I've borrowed it.
Heroes
Truckers, kickers, cowboy angels, freak cowboys who love big donuts in the sky; and anyone else who's gone wrong, sold their soul, lived to tell it all, or died too soon, all to save the world from zippity-doo-dah.
About me: Bookish, geeky nerd with 2 science degrees who instead spends her life running around with musicians. Ate with 'em, schmoozed with 'em, slept on tourbuses with 'em, interviewed 'em, provided psychotherapy on the spot for 'em, wrote about'em, promoted 'em; had a journalism gig, a radio gig, and organized a gig or two.
Mostly I am known for my insane ability to never be wrong about who or what is genuinely the Real Thing, and with just the right people, will be honest-to-God stars.
And I never bullsh*t 'em.
Who I'd like to meet: Haven't met em yet. Suprise me.

Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:
Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella
Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.
Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.
I encourage all to visit the YouTube page to learn more (Show support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly circulate as widely as possible, here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4
