About Me

Currently living out a small red bag in a medium sized red van with my boys..Patch and Raul Ripp. We are driven around the country by Boldy J and play songs that make us smile and sweat. My job is to bang the drums. They are covered in sparkles..apple sparkles to be exact and for this pleasure i owe HSBC. a lot. I only have one pair of sticks so if they break i'm screwed but they never do. The mirror says we are having the most fun without getting arrested. Sometimes i miss having money and my nana thinks i look tired but they're not wrong. LONG LIVE THE RIPPS!

EGGS

I really like a girl called lauren. Shes a machine and draws faces on my face. What a special egg she is.

Movies:

Television:

Cartoons that rock....Family Guy..The power puff girls. Shows that invade/improve/ruin peoples lives...What not to wear-You are what you eat-Faking it-Faking it u.s.a-Real World-wife swap-Relocation,Relocation,Relocation...ect. I also love a good police drama such as C.S.I, Midsummer Murders, Poirot...he's the best. * Ok he IS the best at investigating in style but Jack Baur (24) is the best at saving the world. Repeatedly. 24 has CHANGED my life, it's true to say. There surley is nothing better than watching series 4 in 3 sittings and forgeting your own name. NOTHING.

Books:

I like books. I never used to, and thats why i can't spell. Since leaving school and ditching education i find great comfort in reading factual books and learning new things. . .six days of war-Michael B. Oren. Al-Jazeera-Hugh Miles. Long walk to freedom-Nelson Mandela. I love philosophical books. Romantic eastern philosophy brings bedtime resolution...hard core strategy for wild peace... brings perspective, strength and hope. The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran is a beaut and Bertrand Russell is a winner for all moods. I also enjoy old skool erotica...with titles such as 'Tormented Virgin' and 'The Path Between'. With quotes like 'walking the tightrope between casual love and careless sin' I sometimes wish girls would keep their pants on and worry about the words in modern day porn. If you want to feel better about your childhood read 'Running with scissors' a memoir by Augusten Burroughs..he has had ONE fucked up life.
