Welcome to the Library... All my Imaginary Friends have pictures too!

About Me

Over the years I have been known to "collect things!"From rocks and minerals in my youth, to drums and percussion, CD's, art and a vast collection of books... that was the past! Now it is Personalities... This is my new hobby. "Cyberspace Librarian", here's looking at you kid! I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

My Interests

I've had many interests over the decades... Photography, Architecture, going to Museums and art galleries, travel,sitting in cafe's around Europe, North America and Central America having a good cuppa Joe! Music, Drumming, Fine Wine, scotch, Beer, Good Food from around our planet, long walks, interesting books and periodicals, Conversing with a vast array of people of different cultures and countries, and beautiful women...mmmmmm, beautiful women!

I'd like to meet:

Everyone!!! When I worked in a youth hostel in San Francisco, I had the chance to talk with people from all over the world. So here I have the opportunity to explore the globe without leaving the comfort of my chair and learn about you. I get to collect the famous, the infamous and the people like you and me... aldus huxley. bill bruford. charlemagne. david. e e cummings. f.scott fitzgerald. gandhi. hirohito. irwin rommel. jim morrison kenneth cole. liz taylor. marie curie. nana vasconcelos. ovid. peter jackson. queen victoria. rene russo. sappho. tellulha bankhead. u. srinivas. vishnu. walter scott. xavier cugat. yasser arafat. zorro... come see my friends in the pages here and get to know what "I" like?

Music:

Classical,Opera, jazz, world, experimental, rock, progressive, old country, Stax/Motown R&B, funk, blues, folk, movie soundtracks, the Liszt grows, so it may be better to just peruse my friends and see if you recognize some, they're almost all here?

Movies:

Soooooo many!!! I like action, drama, comedy, sci-fi, foreign, documentaries, Historical period pieces, I'll list them soon when I have a chance... but no doubt we have some in common? Although here are just a few...Baraka, Latcho Drom, Lord of the Rings, V for Vendetta, Lawrence of Arabia, Shawshank Redemption, Pulp Fiction, Seven, Ten Commandments...

Television:

quite a bit! It is a wonderful time waster is it not?

Books:

lots and lots, I've been reading the written word for a long long time and will continue! But then Again, the authors are in here and I'm searching for more each day... and when my eyesight fails, I'll listen to them on audio! If they put the Oxford dictionary on disc, I'll finally be able to speak properly...(chuckles)

Heroes:

In the words of David Bowie... "We could be Hero's, if just for one day!" There are people I admire who don't have profiles, but then again some have found a home here as well! "Welcome to the Library... feel free to drop by often and please leave a comment on your way out thank you! ciao4now Rick X / AtoZ...
