collecting old recordings, watching and reading sci-fi or anything educational, and riding my motorbike
Fav Xena Ep: The Way

Fav Xena Quote: You'd think it would be the one I use in e-mails ("To conquer others is to have power; To conquer yourself is to know The Way") but actually I have two I like better.  (1) "Dead end" (Callisto in Maternal Instincts) (2) "Was it snowing on Mt Amaro?" (Xena in Ides of March)
Do you have a Xena collection? Yes and growing. Scripts and books including novels, official magazines, dolls, soundtrack CDs, episode videos and comics are what I have most of, meaning few if any items in these categories are missing from my collection. I also collect photos (some signed), posters, lithos and paintings, trading cards, calendars, rare and interesting items such as plates and mugs, and any cheaper items that I find at conventions.
Have you met anyone
from the show?
Bruce Campbell, Robert Trebor, Ted Raimi, Claire Stansfield, Danielle Cormack, Paris Jefferson, Adrienne Wilkinson, Hudson Leick, Tim Omundson, William Gregory Lee, Alexandra Tydings, Musetta Vander, Karl Urban, in that order. Also Jennifer Blanc from "Dark Angel".
Other Fav Celebrities: Debbie Harry, Toyah Willcox, Cher
Anything else to add? On 12th July 1997 I decided to watch the opening
episode in what I expected to be just another good new TV series. When I had seen a few episodes it was somehow more than any other TV show before or since. Suddenly I wanted to read about the actors and the mythology, and that had never happened to me before. Once I started collecting information it became increasingly evident that there was a message behind it. Xena has taught me many things, not least of which is the possibility of forgiving yourself and others and starting afresh. It has made me cry and it has made me laugh; sometimes just  a snigger, sometimes a loud chuckle, and sometimes there's a real belly laugh one-liner that still comes to mind now and then and have to explain to other people why I am giggling.
