Star Trek. Adventure, sci fi, ray guns (phasers), aliens, and a philosphical/humanist point of view that the future is going to be positive. Nuff said.
APBM,
What was your favorite song when you were a kid and why?

As a child, I always had a thing for "list" songs... where the singer would name a variety of people doing similar, yet different, things. I know it sounds weird, but I think something in the way the pattern progressed appealed to my particular way of learning.
So I was fond of "Fifty Ways to Leave Your Lover" by Paul Simon (Slip out the back, Jack; make a new plan, Stan; no need to be coy, Roy, etc.), "Games Without Frontiers" by Peter Gabriel (Hans plays with Lottie, Lottie plays with Jane, Jane plays with Willie, etc), but my favorite of this strange sub-genre was "Let 'Em In" by Wings (Sister Suzie, Brother John, Martin Luther, Phil and Don, Brother Michael, Auntie Gin, Open the door and let 'em in.)
Alphabetical Phonetic Biolinguistic Memory,
What is the first word you have a distinct recollection of learning... not your first word, but the first one where you actually heard it, recognized that you didn't know it, then found out what it meant?

(I know what you mean about list songs, Exnihil. When I was a kid, one of my favorite songs was "Life Is a Rock" by Reunion, which consists mainly of rap-like lists of early rock/pop stars.)
I remember having to use the word "vitality" in a sentence once in school and thinking it meant (because I knew the word "vital") "something of great importance." Boy, was I suprised when I got the paper back and learned I was wrong.
APBM:
What is one real world concept (relating to science or language, for example) that you learned as a child from comic books?

Thanks a lot for this question Lardy. Now I have "Oops I did it again" going through my head.
Ash Pine Birch Maple,
I'm pretty sure I asked this, but it's been so long.
You have a one month all-expenses paid vacation to anywhere in the world, where would you go and why did you pick that place?

Home: because I'd be on an unlimited bank account with-in commute of many places I'd like to day-trip and I'd be able to do the things I can't normally in my hometown without getting all bothered by travel arrangements.

A brown shirt with horizontal orange stripes. (from my favorite aunt-she tries, God Bless her!) I'd settle for a better patterned shirt. I'm not too hard to please.

Without going into horrific detail: Some rather... suggestive undergarments... from somebody that I didn't really know well enough for that kind of thing. [cough. Ah... youth.]

No, I prefer to either have it quiet and keep to myself, or sing hymns/ spiritual songs which helps me feel better.

No, but I did have a severe case of poison ivy once. My face swelled up and then the drying lotion made me look like the creepy old person in a 50s horror movie.
