About Me



Captain Robert E. Norman is the head honcho over at ABNorman Productions, an actor, musician, director, writer, award-winning poet and philanthropist. He was born in wet weather and prefers his eggs boiled until blue. He also wanders why eggs go blue, but is far too lazy to find out. ABNorman handles diverse projects such as the bands Scrotum Queen and The Shrinking Bats, movies, plays, novels, poetry and computer games.

My Interests

Writing my own words and reading others, writing my own music and listening to others, food of most kinds, especially Pringles, overly sentimental/cliche movies, acting and directing, sleeping, pretending to be more famous than I really am, and poker, a little.

Music:

Pearl Jam, Scrotum Queen, The Shrinking Bats, Digital Camera, The Retard Jamboree, Radiohead, Counting Crows, Sublime, Kings of Leon, Nirvana, Boo!, Springbok Nude Girls, Beatles, Stones, Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, Crash Test Dummies, anything not crap - having to fill in lots of different types of bands just to be cool is NOT ON.

Movies:

Big Fish, Garden State, The Princess bride, The Three Amigos, Fantasia, Robin Hood: Men in Tights, Love Actually, Lord of the Rings (sorry), Shaolin Soccer, The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, anything arty and overly sentimental.

Television:

Little Britain (just saw an episode from the third series though, and it's pretty bad), Ally McBeal (but Sshhh), Survivor, Conan O'Brien, Freakazoid, Animaniacs, Transformers, Dr Snuggles, other 80s and 90s cartoon shows, House, CSI (Vanilla is the best - Grissom rules my world), Scrubs.

Books:

Anything that values plot and premise over inane character studies. Anything by Terry Pratchett, but especially Nightwatch (it's more about the humour than the fantasy...), Bill Bryson's nifty, Harry Potter (why not?), Neil Gaiman, espcially when accompanied by pictures, anything that doesn't take itself too seriously or make me want to sleep.

Heroes:

The Ved.
