About Me

About this layout:
This MySpace layout is an example of some of the things you can do with the Super EZ Profile Tweaker. All of the advanced customizations on this profile --including the cityscape header background, the customized profile info box ("older than stink on a monkey", etc), the custom Extended Network table and the custom comment box (below)-- can be quickly and easily accomplished with this web application.

What about me?
Well, I'm a professional web designer living in the city which hosted the 1976 Olympic games and yes that's right, I'm older than stink on a monkey.
So how old am I really? Well, I was 10 years old when my mother called me into the living room to watch live television coverage of Neil Armstrong making history by stepping onto the surface of the moon.
For those of you who don't know exactly what year that was, you'll have to hit up Google for the info and then do a little math to figure it out.) And by the way, that was an old black-and-white television set that I watched that on.
So what else? Lessee... I don't smoke. I drink a beer once in a blue moon. I was born and raised in Toronto (Canada), I'm a devout do-it-yourselfer and I'm a twin but my brother doesn't look at all like me.
By-the-way, he just got married... .. (Congratulations bro!...)
Okay so that's about it. You can just use your imagination to make up the rest.... :o)
Peace and blessings.

About friend requests
I usually accept all friend requests with the exception of the following:
A. You're totally pyscho....
OR...
B. You're ripping me off by using my layouts without displaying the tag and text link as per my Terms of Use agreement (at which point you can probably expect a nasty message from me followed by a DMCA take down notice).
Other than that.. Sure, go ahead and add me! Love to meet you!
About my top friends list
Some choices are those whom I've developed a real friendship with.
Other choices are --admittedly-- entirely arbitrary.
Quite often it's because I think your display pic is outrageous (which I like).
So if you drop out of my top friends list, don't take it personally. It was probably because you changed your display pic.
Another possibility is because you changed your display name to something reaaaalllllyyy_long with no spaces and it ended up spreading my layout. (Sorry, I'm kinda picky about stuff like that. This profile is fronting my MySpace layouts sites so it's gotta be totally up to snuff.)

Plain MySpace Layouts by Iron Spider

My Interests

Making MySpace layouts and, of course, web design plus pretty much anything else to do with computers and the internet. I also love classic video games like Command & Conquer Red Alert, Tekken 3, X-Com and Resident Evil 1 (the latter of which I can complete easily in under two hours [no cheating either]. I also completed it with the Jill character using only the knife...)..

I'd like to meet:

YOU!

TRIBUTE TO THE DEARLY DEPARTED DEPT. ~


JIM MORRISON

"Desperately in need of some stranger's hand in a desperate land..."

FRANK ZAPPA

"I got a girl with a little rubber head. Rinse her out every night just before I go to bed..."

JANIS JOPLIN

"Have another little piece of my heart now, baby..You know you got it, child, if it makes you feel good..."

JOHN LENNON

"When they've tortured and scared you for 20 odd years. Then they expect you to pick a career..."

SID VICIOUS

Here we are now.
Entertain us...

Movies:

Favourite childhood movies:
The Italian Job (1969)
The Great Escape
The Guns of Navarone
The Magnificient Seven
In the Heat of the Night

All time favourite movies released after 1980:
Platoon
Point Break

Favourite comedies:

The Mask

Favourite tearjerker:
Dead Poet's Society
(...uhhh... not that I like this kind of stuff... it's just that uh... like uhhhh... *ahem*... [oh crap... there goes my macho image...] )..
Favourite gangster film:
Miller's Crossing
Favourite Sci-Fi:
Aliens
Terminator 2: Judgement Day

Favourite martial arts movie:
Ong-Bak: The Thai Warrior
(By far, hands-down, best martial arts movie made EVER. Absolute MUST-SEE. Well worth any inflated price being charged for the DVD. Opening scene alone will blow you away...)
Favourite horror films:
Silence of the Lambs
The Blair Witch Project

(Blair Witch was the only movie that genuinely scared the sh*t out of me... Until I found out the truth, that is... Can't comment any further 'cuz I don't wanna spoil it for you if you haven't seen it yet...)

Television:

I don't have cable so I pretty much watch whatever they throw at me that's halfway decent which boils down to mostly movies and any CFL game but I also enjoy:
The Red Green Show
The Simpsons
King of the Hill
Family Guy
American Dad
Frasier

(okay don't laugh... like I said whatever they throw at me)...
HOWEVER...
Lately I've discovered how neat these 'complete season' DVD sets are so I started out with Season One of The Shield which is absolutely awesome. Watched it three times through already. This show is gritty, controversial, contains a cast of excellent actors and there's tons of action. Best cop show EVER (starting to sound like the comic book guy from the Simpsons... *chuckle*...).
It also introduced me to a Kid Rock song called Bawitdaba (check my music player to have a listen) which was used in a music montage at the end of the first episode. Needless to say, I quickly ran out and bought Season Two. Rifled through that in about four or five nights...
My parents bought me Season Three for Christmas last year. Rifled through that in about four or five nights (Re: Episode 5.... eeewwww!!! GROSSSS! ... *shudder*...)... Got Season Four for Christmas this year (thanks Mom!).. This show is freakin' off the hook...!

Books:

Books? Hmmm... Lessee... when was the last time I actually read a book...? .... Oh wait a minute, yes... Programming language manuals like Javascript, Perl and whatnot.. Yessiree, fascinating bedtime reading fer sure.....

Heroes:

The 1 billion people on the face of this planet who live without access to a cup of clean drinking water. They have my sincere props. Meanwhile, most of us with MySpace pages splash gallons of clean drinking water all over ourselves everyday just in order to smell nice.

I would also like to honor all those (close to 3 billion individuals) who live on less than 2 bucks a day.
