My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Depends on my mood.

Music:

How best to describe this? I've got a 40GB iPod and it's full. I've got 25 more gig on my laptop with a CD collection covering all the shelves in the house. I am somewhat of a music fan!

I'd probably claim allegiance to any band you say you've never heard; and reject any band you've said you have heard. Sad, but true.

Movies:

I'll name the first ten movies on my DVD shelf, left to right, that should set the scene: Shawshank Redemption, Baraka, Crouching Tiger..., Fight Club, Magnolia, All About My Mother, Amelie, Fargo, The Commitments, Man Bites Dog.

You'll notice I don't keep them in alphabetical order too :-)

Television:

I watch as little as possible.

Books:

Reading two right now, one is Bill Bryson's "A Short History of Nearly Everything". The other is "In Harm's Way" by Martin Bell.

Heroes:

None. Not right now anyway. They've all failed me! :)
