Iron Maiden
I think that in the realm of Heavy Metal music, one band flies "Aces High" above the others. The wings belong to IRON MAIDEN.
"Piece of Mind" was my introduction to Iron Maiden. My favourite tracks from this album include: "Where Eagles Dare", "Revelations", "Flight of Icarus" and "Die With Your Boots On". This is one of my all-time-favourite studio recordings from a band which, I think, is the very definition of the Heavy Metal genre.

Tale Spin
TALE SPIN has own sense of cartoon silliness and high-flying adventure, but underneath it all there's a heart and soul about it; especially when one watches the relationship between Baloo and Kit Cloudkicker as it develops from Pilot-and-Navigator...to Father-and-Son. I thought it was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in a cartoon.

Walt Disney World
My friend and I visited Walt Disney World in 1996. While we were at the Magic Kingdom, he took this photo of me posing with Kit Cloudkicker. The picture was the highest point of the entire trip.

MEMORY:
I took this with a webcam...and a Photoshopped image of my cartoon hero jumping on my shoulder. The "Dare to Dream" shirt is a sort of in-joke between myself and some friends; all of whom are Yanni fans. "Dare to Dream" is one of Yanni's albums.

Digger/Crane/Claw games
I had a very lucky time with one claw game in Wildwood, New Jersey last summer. I put a dollar into one machine and came away with a Baltimore Orioles baseball jersey.
