Heroes

I figured since my last 4 posts this week have been about Hulk Hogan, that the 5th and final post of the week should also be about him (sorta) that way it was a sweet week of the Hulkster.

Now that I have finally met the #1 person I have always wanted to meet. I figured that I'd make a list of those I have met, and those that I would love to meet, sort of like a "hit list" where I get to kill 'em with kindness.

So without further adieu, here is my list:

Andy Kaufman (deceased--but a boy can dream)

Ian Curtis (deceased--but a boy can dream)

Hulk Hogan (would love a second meeting)

Damon Lindelof (Executive Producer and pretty much the top writer for LOST. He wrote my favorite episode "The Constant," and after I saw it I said to myself "I must meet whoever wrote this episode and give them a hug." So whenever you're ready for that hug Damon, I'll be ready also.)

Mark E. Smith
(I have a day dream where I make something of myself in the comedy(writing) scene and I meet Mark at a party. I then confess to him that while I was struggling, I downloaded A LOT of the Fall albums, and they kept me going. I then cut him a check to make us "even" and he's cool with that. Then we discuss the Fall, H.P. Lovecraft, and Twin Peaks!)

Davey Havok
(met him during the Art of Drowning era, and I'm glad I did then, because now I wouldn't wait on line for 2+ hours--and even then during my intense obsession over him, he disappointed me by not wanting to discuss the Misfits. Farewell old friend.)

Glenn Danzig [circa 1977-1983] (when he was in the Misfits, he was at his coolest peak. After that he steadily became more insane and less awesome.)

David Lynch (super nice, and I'd love to meet him again, although I won't pay $90 the next time)

Ken Colly
(Admiral Piett himself, super nice guy, and I'd love to pick up where we left off...him signing my memorabilia for free, and sticking it to the convention people.)

Stephen Colbert (great guy, but hard of hearing if you ask him if he is a fan of Andy Kaufman. But he's more than eager to tell you his favorite Lord of the Rings character--Faramir-- and happy to tell you who would win in a fight to the death; Cap'n Crunch or Count Chocula--"Cap'n crunch has crunch cannons.")

Zach Galifianakis
(very nice, especially when you can't make it into his show. But he does tend to care more about what attractive women say to him when they touch his shoulder, as opposed to fat, geeky, aspiring comics...thanks a lot, Kristen!)

Leo Allen (met him at a stand-up show. I told him that I appreciate everything he's done. He seemed genuinely appreciative of my compliment...so yea, we're best friends now! haha)

Jon Glaser (I'd love to meet him, but I'd love even more to be on the same show as him. That would kick major ass!)

Any Joy Division Members
(since they did help make my favorite songs, ha)

Mick Foley (ridiculously nice...especially with kids, and he writes interesting books...what a combo.)

Efrem Schultz and the rest of Death by Stereo (glad I met them back in 05, because I stopped rocking them not too long afterward. Sorry gang.)

John Pettibone (met him 2 times and he is the nicest guy ever. We discussed Joy Division--his favorite song is Novelty because "it hits home"--and he gave 2 free stickers to my friend, so nice)

Ian Leck of Voorhees (I'd love to let him know that his vocals are the best!)

Tony Miles (deceased--but a boy can dream)


Keanu Reeves
(Has been a favorite actor of mine since I was young and first saw Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure. Since then I am immediately interested in any film he appears in-save the Lake House, and the Day the Earth Stood Still)

Bill Pullman (another favorite actor of mine. While everyone was excited for a summer blockbuster starring Will Smith, I was more than happy to see Bill Pullman as the President.)

Lance Henriksen (after falling in love with his character, Frank Black, on MillenniuM I have desired to meet him for quite a while. I also hear that he is super nice.)

Kyle Machlachlan (played Agent Dale Cooper on Twin Peaks, and seems to be an all-around nice guy, Diane. <--semi-TP reference)

Masi Oka (the actor who plays Hiro Nakamura. HE is the reason why I watch Heroes still--no matter how bad it's been since season 2. They keep hinting at his character dying and if that happens, they will lose a viewer for good...me. I just love when he makes his face jiggle while trying to freeze time or time-travel)

Franz Kafka (deceased--but a boy can dream)

Bauhaus (any member will do since I've recently fallen for Tones on Tail, and have been into Love & Rockets for a while. I'd be thrilled to meet anyone of them--but if I had my pick I'd go for Peter Murphy, of course.)

----And now to end the gay rumors, I'll put women on this list also----


Madchen Amick (played Shelly Johnson on Twin Peaks and I consider her to be the most beautiful woman in the moving pictures since TP debuted. Super pal Chontel agrees.)

Hayden Panettiere (Claire-bear on Heroes. I believe she's attractive. Super pal Chontel does not agree, and makes fun of me for this. Boo-hoo.)

So there we have it. I'm sure I forgot someone but this list looks pretty complete to me. 95% male, 3% deceased, 2% female. NOTE: I fought like hell to not put in fictional characters, sorry Emperor Palpatine.
