About Me

I wonder how many people realise that Kool spells looK when spelled backwards - I suppose that's Kool. Yes I do like to have a laugh about stupid things like this and other so called childish humour. I trained as an Accountant and as a Chartered Accountant at that - can anything be more boring then that - believe me - I passed all their exams - but I could never fit in. They dont know how to laugh. You know - these accountant types still believe - Time is money - Whoever believes that, perhaps have not yet learned to live. They are as blind as Mr.Magoo - the cartoon character of the 60's. Then there are the bankers - Have you ever seen any one of them without Grandad Specs. - if they had their way they will keep a record of the number of toilet paper sheets and count them after you have done your business. Can anything be more sad. Whoever / Whatever God may be - I thank him - pardon me - maybe its a her or even a "it" for giving me enough sense to realise that I had to get out.I did this more the 15 years ago - I went into T-Shirt design and print with two other partners. The Company still operates its own brand ( Terratag.Com )and we have always run the company in a non corporate way - None of the founders have BMW's or own our own homes. We either cycle to or walk to work. If its raining or snowing one of our employees might offer us a lift home.I'm no longer active in the company - I'm now moving on to set up a mobile fone company. Please do not get me wrong - I have no problem with money or profit. What I've a problem with is to have my life ruled by it.I am quiet happy working at nights or at the weekends - I have no problen to be contacted even while I'm on holiday -about 3 months a year.I do not smoke - though I used to - However I do like red wine and good Malt Wisky. I do drink nearly every day but never in excess.I'm single because I choose to be,- not for any other reason - some may say its because I do not like anybody telling me or asking me anything - You know - wives tend to do that. If you dont believe me just ask my cartoon hero - Hagar The Horrible. This fearless Viking Warrior is only afraid of his wife.My other heros are - Top Cat, Jerry ( tom & jerry ) and Bat Fink. Like the mexicans - I have 5 brothers and sisters and about 500 cousines. My youngest niece is adopted and lives in Ireland - We have daily running battles nearly everyday - by Text.My pet hates are - Politicians - I avoid them - I detest them. I have no real animosity towards Bankers and Accontants - We are just different.Please dont get me wrong - I'm no "good boy" - far from it. I can and do annoy a lot of people - I just cant help it. I guess I just want to do my own thing - whenever I want.

My Interests

Watching Arsenal Football Club - If I were a rich man, I'd buy Arsenal Football Club and keep it all to my self.

I'd like to meet:

Captain Morgan - Tne Pirate - these people knew how to live - roaming the seven seas - a women in every port - an occassional good fight with the "Kings Men" - Hiding from the customs and excise and good rum everyday. Perhaps its my fondness for the pirate lifestyle That I still remember this childhood poem:- Of All the Pirates of the South China See The greatest of them was Koo Seng Fee I forget the rest Then there is Gengis Kahn - I'd like to have ridden into battle with him. He did not ask - he took what he wanted. He did not belong anywhere - home was where he was. I'd like to ask him - what motivated him to do what he did. I do not think it was "power" he had this in abundance, and I do not think it was a persuit of wealth either. He had no need for it. To my mind - there is only one plausable reason - He was a naughty boy who liked a good fight. Yes I'd like to have riden and fought with him.One other Guy that I'd like to have met - Uri Gagarine - The first Man In Space. I'd like to have a few glasses of VODKA with him and ask him - If he was ever afraid - Did he ever think that he was definitely "Not comming back". Did he secretly wish that he was not choosen to be the first - more important then anything els - Y he never went back into space.All the above have passed on - the one living person that I would like to meet and have a chat to is Mikhail Gorbachev. He was the man who changed everything. It was Gorbachev's initiative that raised the Iron Curtain. His actions resulted in one of the era's most symbolic events - the demolition of the berlin wall. I would like to try and find out - What was it about this man which enabled him to see so much more clearly then his colleagues. Only a man of Vision and Intellect can tell President Regan that The Soviet Union is ready to deploy its secret weapon. "That the Soviet Union will refuse to be the enemy of the USA". President Regan was for once lost for words; and with these words Mr.Gorbachev ended the Cold War. HumanKind, is indeed indebted to this extraordinary man.As to the women there are three that I would like to meet - One is Mae West - I'm hopeing that she is one day going to tell me - "Come up and see me sometime". ( I have a positive attitude )M/s Mae West was not only a Hollywood Star - She had a beautiful mind - and a sharp tounge as well. Oh Yes - M/s Mae West could keep me entertained for a very long time - in more ways then one.The other is our former Prime Minister - Mrs Tatcher. I'd like to have the opportunity to annoy her - just for a laugh. You know - I've never seen her smile - even if you said nice things about her - She was too buse Bossing people around her. I'd like to be able to spend just one day with her and just Ignore her - just to make her angry. However - I'll have her back as our Prime Minister anyday - She was one class act. Compared to Mrs Tatcher - the present "Phoney Tony" is just a "DICK ED"The third woman is someone a lot of us have heard spoken about - I do not know of anyone who has actually met her - Mrs. Colombo - so if any knows of her whereabouts please can you let me know - but dont tell her husband.In Floklore - I'd like to have met Zorro. I wish he were real and here today - I'd tell him of all the crap that our politicians and their cronies get up to. I'm sure he would pay them a visit and leave them his calling card - the mark of the "Z". That would soon sort them out.
