About Me

Welcome to my little corner of the internet. It is always tought to try and tell the world about yourself in a single paragraph at the top of a webpage, but I will try my darndest to get everything you need to know into as little a space as possible. OK, so I live in Broken Hill (outback, Australia); Im 30 years of age; stand an impossing 6'6" and weigh in at close to 260lbs; I work as the security manager at a Club here in BH (which is a nice way of saying Im the head bouncer I guess); I have been around the world about 5 times which included a year where I lived in Toronto, Canada and absolutely loved it, Africa and Sth America are the only untouched continents left .... for now; I play cricket pretty well and also love my golf (which Im OK at too ... well, I have a 1 hcp at least); strangley enough I enjoy cooking, comic books, the internet, TV and movies, and long walks on the beach (although the nearest beach is 500kms away); for those who care I follow a million sporting teams too, Essendon (AFL), Oakland (NFL), Ottawa Senators (NHL), NSW Waratahs (Super 14), Los Angeles Lakers (NBA), St Louis Cardinals (MLB), Liverpool FC (EPL) and there are a heap more out there somewhere .....I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

I'd like to meet:

Here are a few photos from some of the half decent places I have been in the last few years. The selection of photos weighs in at abut 0.0002% of my photos, and only scratches the places I have been too as well. I think in this collection there is the flight deck at LAX (LA), the Eiffel Tower (Paris), Niagara Falls at night (Canada), the Vatican (Rome), Trevi Fountain (Rome), some haybails in outback SA, London Bridge, Toronto at night (Canada), Broken Hill post office at night (Australia), the city of Honolulu (Hawaii) and the Colossium (Rome). Enjoy .....

Music:

This is gonna get scary ... Metallica - The Beatles - Pearl Jam - Pink Floyd - G'n'R (but only the old stuff) - a little Hip Hop - a little dance - most new stuff I will listen to - any and all good Rock.
