So who s your hero. Growing up who did* you look up to.
as a kid i really looked up to dracula and mr spock-hee hee!
sweet.. lol i forgot to put my hero. Al Capone. Because he always was in charge of his own life. He had a lot of confidence.
I always thought Jesus was kinda cool, though to be honest I suck ass at emulating him. Meh.
Gary Brolsman, maybe. Numa.
'Bove all, though, I think my hero is B.A. Felton. What a guy.
Never had one. Although I've always thought Redd Foxx was badass.
when i was a kid i wanted to be Grandpa Munster....

Batman..even wore the cape and mask for years, till I thought my mother was gonna kill me. I even have a nice scar on my scalp from the fall, hanging upside down.
Growing up...maybe Wolverine. He always seemed like a bad ass loner...plus he has an adamentium coated skeleton, with retractable fuckin' claws. :thumb:, and lets not forget the mutant healing factor...no need for doctors.
...yeah, I'm todally goin' with Wolverine...he's my hero.:worship:
i looked up to my mom.. shes my hero
Thomas Pynchon. he was on the Simpsons with a paper bag on his head.
my dad cause hes cool and probably the funnyest guy ever hes like the real life homer simpson
Actually, now that I gave it some thought...
Peter Venkman.
Who knows who I am talking about??????
Bill Murray's character in Ghostbusters?
He was always second to Egon for me. :1orglaugh ...shows who I relate to better.
I LOVED Venkman... such a smartass, tries to be charmind, but isn't.
I kinda turned out like him :-)
venkman hahaha...
...I once went to a physics class so stoned, I actually remembered what was going on... anyway I was called on to go up to the board to draw up one of the problems we'd had on the board, and this young woman who hated my guts was giving me a really hard time about it.... I was so amazed that I actually remembered how to do the equation, and all that that I forgot to label the vectors, and cordinates, as I traced them out, and this delightful young female kept giving me a hard time about. at first I ignored her, because who knew how long I'd keep remembering (this was back when we outfitted an aqualung to our bong... right?) ...but finally she, and the rest of the class were so intent on seeing my blood up there infront of the class that I labeled the the vectors, and cordinates "Your momma" and "fuck your momma" and continued on with the equation... well naturally the young lady in question became furious, and started yelling at me, at which point I finished the equation correctly, whirled around, and shouted the whole class down with "Back off man, I'm a Scientist!!" :1orglaugh

You know, I was much better at math (huge equations) while stoned.
Normally, I sucked badly at it!

Not sure if you can see this (computer bimbo here) but Emma Peel of a TV show called "The Avengers". They showed it on A & E a few years ago. The best! Emma Peel is my hero!

Let me try it again...
Actually that still is from the coolest episode, called "The Hellfire club", it just might be the MOST fetishy-S & M stuff ever allowed on British TV or any TV!!! Emma actually comes out and dances with a snake!! No one was more beautiful in her day, than Diana Rigg... She was just stunning.

Mr. T
A-Team years
actually, i was a huge fan of Genesis P Orridge for a long time. i tried to get hold of every Throbbing Gristle album i could, and i even bought a copy of his obscure book of essays "Esoterrorism". and i read it.
Throbbing Gristle was disbanded.
after about ten years of reading the same things said in slightly different ways, i began to have my doubts.
he started Thee Temple Ov Psychic Youth. and then abandoned it.
recently he's undergone gender reassignment surgery, which i don't have a problem with... but he looks like Courtney Love. i can't see why anyone would want to go from being a vaguely attractive guy, to being a hideously ugly woman. and he's still talking the same line; the more i look at it, the more it seems to go nowhere.
sigh.
Did you see him on the 'Disinformation Series DVDs"? Oh my god, he looks fucked up now!Quote:

Weird Al Yankovich!!!!
Curly hair, accordians, clever lyrics, and a big nose like mine! Not to mention a love of Mashed Potatoes!
He was my hero, and secret crush growing up!
My hero of the moment. (His next career will put Arnold to shame:)
We love you, Vitali

As my partner mentioned: The Heavyweight Champion of the World, Vitali Klitschko, has retired from the sport of boxing. Vitali Klitschko was a major force for change during the Orange Revolution. He stood up at Maidan without fear of reprisal. His speech at Shevchenko monument, while delivered in russian, mesmerized all of us. Vitali always composed himself in a manner befitting a champion. His love of Ukraine and of the Ukrainian people is immense. As Vitali enters into the next stage of his life, may we all express our appreciation to a national hero.
Vitali's biggest fights are still ahead of him. I look to Vitali as a future leader for the unity of all Ukraine and of all Ukrainian citizens. I look forward to being inspired by the feats of Vitali Klitschko for years to come.
We Love You, Dr. Klitschko. The best is yet to come!
One Eyed Cat
I forgot to mention: Dr. Klitschko really does have a Ph.D.
OEC
Genisis P-Orridge was a HUGE influence... still is... even if homeboy is a tranny with iron teeth these days, I learned so much from that guy...
Burroughs... not into little boys, but again dude made so much (demented) sense...
...Tesla.
...so many others... as a kid Bobba Fett hahaha, Darth Vader...
