Who's Your Hero?


Recommended Posts

So who's your Hero(s) Real, Fictional doesn't matter?

Mines Linus Torvalds the creator of the Linux Kernel. The man's a genius, I wish I had half his brains. He's got great quotes ;) http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Linus_Torvalds I just never want to be on his bad side... posting to the LKML scares me of being on the wrong side of a Linus rant.

haven't had a hero since I was a kid; back then, they were:

Louis Armstrong

Neil Armstrong (no relation)

Duke Ellington

McCoy Tyner

Igor Stravinsky...last to join the list - I was probably 12 or 13 when I discovered his music

that's it - for as much as I idolized the Beatles, I never idolized any of the individual members.
