  • Howdy Bin! I've been thinking about this a lot, lately (no really, I have!). I think it could be a combination of both - that there are certain characteristics that instantly draw certain types of people, and the right combination of those characteristics can be magical (ooh, she's using the "M" word again ;). My newest "obsession" is F1 racing, specifically Jacques Villeneuve. He's cute, but not terribly so...what drew me to him were qualities that bear a striking resemblence to Eddie - overcoming tragedy (his father, also a race car driver, was killed when he was 11), a healthy balance between ego and humility, a creative, soulful, and yet playful nature, and an absolute refusal to play by anyone else's rules but his own. Oh yeah, he can also speak four languages and is obsessed with computers and gadgets. I can respect a guy like that, the same way I respect Eddie. Then again, some people may not go for that...We all have different locks, seeking out the right key. (NT) -- Taya Huntress, 08:34:23 06/19/01 Tue
  • Hey Taya... interesting.. two years ago I learned the qualities of a Greek Hero.. those you listed above Were and still Are the qualities of a hero.. I'm not saying that Eddie is a hero to all of a per se, but its interesting: "Overcoming great odds" and "Humility" ARE the two main characteristics that made people heros.. such as Odysseus in The Odyssey... cool.
