J

First of all, I ain't tall, dark, or handsome. I'm average, going grey, and not vain. I'm half pumpkin, quarter monkey, quarter nerd.
I'm a musician, songwriter, horror/sci-fi/fantasy writer, gamer, music listener, movie watcher, food eater, fluid drinker (of the non-sexual innuendo sort), photograph taker, and roundabout layabout.
Currently residing in Torbay, since moving here in July 2004. Lived in North Devon previously, but got very bored with it - although I must admit there's a few mates I miss taking the piss out of. There's just so little to do there!
I've rejoined my north devon band, and now the biggest hurdle to overcome is getting the time to go up there to practice. We have many good songs on the go and we'll be soon working on recording some up with any luck, so watch this space. No, not that one, this - [ ] - one.
Currently working in an amusement arcade as supervisor, so it's less work, more money at the moment (was promoted to supervisor after just 2 months of being there). It's good work, enjoyable. I'm good with my hands, you see!
I'm not gonna say "talk to me", cos that's lame. Instead, lets head out with a pitchfork each and destroy the welsh, salvaging their women, purely for scientific testing purposes.
Favourites:
Food: Italian
Animal: Wolf
Place: Flaked out on the sofa with pizza, booze, and a decent film

Season: Summer (the girls wear less!)
Weather: Sunshine... although I do like the sound of rain and thunderstorms
Time Of Day: Night. I'm a nocturnal animal.
Instrument: Guitar
Game: It varies from time to time. Half-Life, Unreal, Oblivion, Morrowind, Deus Ex, and Thief are the main contenders.
Non-Alcoholic Drink: There is such a thing? Pepsi max maybe.
Alcoholic Drink: Now you're talking. Somewhere in between red wine (it should be available by prescription on the NHS), beer, and Southern Comfort
Hot Drink: Coffeeeeeeee!
Colour: Blue
PS or Xbox: Playstation all the way baybeh!

Joke: I like the silly ones. Like: What do you call an italian with a rubber toe? Roberto!
Holiday so far: Virginia, US. Snowboarding holiday. It rocked!
Dislikes:
Pedestrians, long queues, stinging nettles, marmite, running out of coffee, anything that has turned a sinister shade of brown, having no booze, cold winds, wasps, and boredom (why else do you think I'm here?!?).
Words of Wisdom:
When you pull the pin from Mr. Grenade... he is no longer your friend.
Also:
Some people are like a Slinky.....not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you shove them down the stairs.
Grammatical Tip Of The Year:
Capitalization is the difference between "I had to help my uncle Jack off a horse.." and "I had to help my uncle jack off a horse.."
10 Have you ever?'s (these things make me laugh)

No.
4. Lied to get someone into bed?

6. Crashed a car?
I'd need one to crash, so no.
7. Thrown something large out of a fast moving vehicle?
Of course. The old school bus was a missile carrier. Many a pedestrian and road user got a front full of something.

Yup. Had me a .22 rifle and pistol.

No, but I tore a ligament in my wrist. (LEFT wrist!!!)
10. Got into a fight with someone twice your size?
Not a fight, per se. But I've stood up to many rather large people.
