My friends. Yes it's a bit wet but check out my Star Sign. Pisceans are famed for it and for once I'll allow myself to be pigeon holed.
Also the environment. I can go on quite a rant about how some people just don't seem to give a damn. I'm not what I'd call a tree hugger but I definately appreciate trees more than I would a car park.
I like all animals (check the pic of my cat) but my favourites have to be wolves. Their loyalty, endurance and determined nature are just as important as their natural grace.
I'd like to meet:
Anybody else from the dark side of the moon, or failing that people who are damn sure they're not normal.
And most of all the lady I'm meant to be with (I know your out there so stop hiding).
Please if your a band don't send me a Friend Request. If I like your stuff I'll send you one.
Music:
Okay, I'm a bit of a sad rocker. Not really I'm into Rock, Metal, Ska, Reggae, a bit of Punk, Silly Songs and anything sung and/or performed by Jim Hensons Muppets.
Movies:
Blue's Brothers is great.
Am I the 3rd Blue Brother? Not likely, no rythm
Lord of the Rings trilogy is amazing.
Brazil, Star Wars, Italian Job (the Original one), The Fisher King, Hackers, Awakenings, Wallace and Gromit films (yet to see The Curse of the Wererabbit) and lots of other stuff.
I've got over 300 films on VHS and the worlds going DVD, Bleeeep!!
To finish on a suggestion. If you get the chance, check out Geordie Star Wars. Every time I've watched it I've been close to wetting myself it's that funny. It defies description (but I'll try). Take the first 3 films (New Hope, Empire Strikes Back & Return of the Jedi), edit them, cut them around a bit and finally dub them over in places with geordie* comments. Phrases such as "This doesn't look like Middlesborough to me Derek" (as the Millenium Falcon approaches the Death Star) and "You won't b****y believe what's coming down the canyon" (as AT-ATs attack the rebel Hoth base), not so subtly turn the well known Sci-Fi into a farce of side splitting dimensions.
Warning - With some of the language you might want to take care that the younger kids don't watch it.
* Geordie - For those that don't know is a term for a person born in the Newcastle upon Tyne area of the UK. Geordies have a very recognisable accent and tend to have a slightly warped/brutal (plenty of swearing) sense of humour.
Television:
Babylon 5Now that was a great show. Script great, characters great. Kosh, an alien with a sense of humour so dry you need 3 litres of water to survive his jokes. Garibaldi, oh worshipper of the great "Daffy Duck". Ivonova, Claudia Christian (need I say more). Sheridan gung-ho when needed but a bit wet a times (then again what do you expect from a guy who's got a bonehead for a girlfriend). Delenn, well for starters she's got more b***s than Sheridan.
CSI
Grissom rules - The bugs answer to Dr. Dolittle, he see's one ant walking sideways and he's solved the crime.
Wildlife documentaries - let's see the what the lions get up to when they think the camera's not pointed in their direction.
Red Dwarf best episode - the original version of "Polymorph".
Other stuff Young Ones, Black Adder, 2DTV, and more.
Books:
Stranger in a Strange Land by R.A.Heilein - I want to be able to grok.
Someplace to be Flying by Charles de Lint - whoa magical read.
Lord of the Rings by You Know Who - loved it since I was 16
Disc World Novels by Terry Pratchett Oook
and lots more, my book collection would be a pyromaniacs dream and a pyromaniac my nightmare
Heroes:
Ellen MacArthur - People with her kind of get up and go are the best chance the human race has.
James Dyson - Any man who decides to sell his vacuum in Japan first has got my vote. A first class inventor/innovator.
Also anybody who can stop the back-end of my cat from smelling so bad.
