A tough one for me, but I would have to say it's my grandfather.

A child of the depression, planning on college then sent to fly B-24s in WW2. The cheapest bombers there were, shrapnel would go in one side and right out the other, he flew over 1000 hours and over 400 combat hours in them. He flew missions lasting over ten hours with no fighter support against the fastest fighters in the world and when he was on the ground he'd watch the flights get back and count the planes to see which friends didn't make it back. After the war he settled in the area where Disneyland would be built and took his new family and his daughters to tour the park with Walt Disney. He did what he loved, became a professional photographer for years, retired a couple times, and worked various jobs as the fancy struck him into his 80s. He is still alive today at the ripe old age of 96, doing crosswords and visiting family to keep his mind sharp.

He's my idol for those reasons and many others. So, who is it that's affected your life in a positive way, someone you look up to? Who is your idol?

My dad. I used to name everything I owned 'George'. My books, my sandals, my tshirts, chickens, other people's dogs, cereal boxes.. they were all George. I saw him in everything, and honestly I still do.


In terms of celebrities I've always looked up to Dr. Hawking.

Carm, be serious P

My idol is grape juice. I don't have idol in a form of human.

Custom ship skins, character creator style "repaint". Bring it!

What kind of bullshit is this?
You think that's somehow funny or something ?

Just because you're a talking horse,
doesn't mean everything you blabla is funny, idiot.

Yes...and yours is so much better, in a thread about an idol you respect and admire. Not sure where this thread went into erotica.

Now now, it kinda was my fault... on with the topic!

...another idol of mine is (lame I know) my dad. He's really a great, highly intelligent man, although he was growing up in post WW2 Slovenia, moved to a foreign country without much education to to speak of, and still managed to have 2 successful offspring... namly, my brother (an architect) and me.
