Idols
George Carlin (1937 - 2008) - the most intelligent and thought-provoking individual ever.
Aleister Crowley and Anton LaVey - not for being Satanists, just for pissing off all the religious squares!
Jonathan Davis - an inspiration to social outcasts everywhere.
Eminem - for his brutal honesty, and his ability to remain proud of who he is even in his least proudest moments.
Al Jourgensen and Ministry - for spending every waking moment of the past seven years mercilessly hounding George W. Bush!
Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller - for finally bringing
Sin City to life!
