About Me

i'm a corporate slave, spreading propaganda like a fatal virus, but enjoying the monthly pay off, heh. i'm a writer by profession, so i bullshit well. with that in mind, i still HATE liars, hyprocites, and people who try so hard to be someone they're not, and who they couldn't possibly be.

My Interests

Italian AND gourmet food, antique cars, travel, movies and reading (fantasy, fiction, mythology), comics(Gaiman is THE MAN), art, metalwork, sports.

I'd like to meet:

i'm anti-social and an introvert. in the immortal words of Zaifeena Wan Nasir- i just want a space on the world wide web with my name on it.however, feed me good food and you'll stay in my good books forever. or buy me a vintage car, that'll do.
