Martin Luther king, Jr.

Wow! What can I say? This is one of the greatest men of all time. He is a role model for many, many people. He was a Godly man who made a big difference. A lot of people see him as a leader for the black people, but he was much more than that. He was a civil rights leader for all who have been oppressed for any reason. He had many good ideas about humans. I would recommend that you learn more about him. At least a little bit. I really didn't know much about him until I did my research paper for my junior year. I still don't know a lot but even learning a little while change your perspective dramatically. I'm sure if you look into his life you will see things in a way you never thought before. I guarantee you will have a new outlook on life.

DeForrest Kelly

This is another wonderful actor. I can't say enough about this man. Words can't possibly do him justice. Most know him as Dr. Leonard "Bones" Horatio McCoy, Chief surgeon of the Starship Enterprise from Star Trek. It is interesting that when he was a child he wanted to be a doctor like his uncle, but his parents were too poor to send him to medical school. Oh, well. He got his chance. As for the year 1999, all I can think to say is, "He's dead, Jim."

He will be long missed. He has had a deep impact on many. I just couldn't imagine Star Trek without him. Who else could have been Kirk's conscience or Spock's debate challenger?

Elijah Wood

Yeah, you know.  He's the cute child actor with the amazing eyes.  Well, he's all grown-up know and still gettin' older.  He is most currently famous for his role as Frodo Baggins in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, but has done a lot of other work as well.  Other than the popular trilogy, my favorite of his most  current work is the movie also starting Mandy Moore All I Want.  He was also in movies such as The Good Son, Deep Impact, and the ever successful The Faculty.  He is an amazing actor that is making a great transition from child to adult. ( He even has a sex scene in All I Want!)
