    It wasn't a famous person that influenced me most in my life. It was one teacher I had and a man that was studying to become a priest. Both were very caring people and very intelligent. I learned a lot from them.

    Paul McCartney. My taste in music has been greatly influenced by his work, the way I look at things has and a lot of my outlook on maybe just life in general. I've read a lot about him and he is a really cool guy and a great person.

    Hugh Hefner, who wouldn't want to be him. What happens in the Grato, happens everywhere. The quote " What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas". Do it and don't tell. Hell if I was in the Grato I'd tell everyone. Wouln't you? Hope this has enlightened your influencial quest. By the way where did you get your avatar?
