Larry Flynt, the Weekly World News, St.John of Patmos, Ivan Stang, and Quentin Tarantino. Larry Flynt, for the pure GUTS it took to publish Hustler back in the 70s. The stories and cartoons in that magazine FAR outshone the marginally attractive women. From his magazine I learned that lightning wouldn't strike me if I laughed at a cartoon showing a nun crapping cross-shaped turds. The Weekly World News, for it's never-ending dedication to finding bat-boy and bigfoot. St.John of Patmos for the Book of Revelations, which gives me a 'chubby' every time I read it. Ivan Stang, my good friend, who showed me the path to SLACK. Quentin Tarantino, for "Pulp Fiction" and "Reservoir Dogs".
