This is kind of an ambiguous question. Who inspires me how? Musically it would be George Michael. As a writer, I'd have to say Stephen King. In terms of technological vision, Steve Jobs fits the bill. There are so many ways to answer that question. Honorable mentions would go to Anne Frank, J.K. Rowling, Leonard Nemoy, Sting, and Frank McCourt.

What's your favorite sport?
If I'm going to answer some of these questions, they've got to have entertaining answers, right? Otherwise, what's the point in making people who already know me well read all this stuff? Baseball is slow and unimaginably boring to me, despite Stephen King's attempts to make it interesting in "Faithful" or "Blockade Billy". Basketball has too much scoring, (really, only the last five minutes matter). Football is simply lame. (No offense to any fans of the above sports, they're just not for me.) Hockey is the sport I've been a passionate fan of for a good portion of my life. My interest in it started with the 1980's MacGyver TV series, in which the title character is a huge fan, as was the actor who played him, Richard Dean Anderson. I'm a LA Kings fan, through and through, though I route for a handful of other teams when they're not the Kings' opponent. The Penguins and Blues in particular.
Where's your favorite place to buy clothes?
I suppose the honest answer to this, as I don't particularly like buying clothes in the first place, would be the San Diego Comic Con. There's nothing like a new "Masters of the Universe", "Star Trek", or "Harry Potter" t-shirt or baseball cap to make a geek feel stylish!
