I could choose to have Megan Fox or a lustful semi-naked woman for a pinup in my room, but my walls are adorned with photo's of Stevie Nicks, Tori Amos, Kate Bush and Jim Morrison. If I wanted, my favorite movie could be about fast cars, sexy women and guns - but I find comfort with Thelma and Louise, Alien, Blade Runner and Fried Green Tomatoes. I could easily start listening to music about one night stands or getting drunk, but I choose to listen to Neil Young sing about finding a Heart of Gold.

Sure, it may take a while for me to find a Heart of Gold... but i'm me, and i'm happy with that.

Wow... I'm just going to have to agree with you on that. You're totally right. Glad to see another person my age not afraid to be different!
