About Me

Welcome. Come in and make yourself at home. Pour yourself a drink! And one for me while your at it. Let's not be selfish now.The moment you arrived here, you entered my own little corner of MySpace - the place you can pop in on the life of Carlos. A forum to pull up a chair and share in the unique and outrageous drama that goes by the pretense of my life. If my life would ever to become a film, it would be the wildest ride ever commited to celluloid. But until Mister Spielberg sorts the deal for that - 10 mil for the rights? I dont get out of bed and piss for that kind of money - we'll have to settle for this forum.Its certainly a good idea. I very much appreciate all the diverse and wonderful influcences in my life and MySpace has offered me the chance to collect it all in one place. Music, comics, people, stories and much, much more.And YOU, if your reading this.Here I can bring it all into one whole thing - which really brings it to me, since I am the product of all those forces. I've reached a point in life where I've come to terms with the triumphs and tragedies of the past and anticipate the exciting unknowns of the future. It's the perfect time to reflect and share on both.So without further ado, lets get this show on the road and let the fabulousness begin!!!!

"I Summon A Hurricane Wind!"

Life has a funny way of going full circle. Over ten years ago, I was in Iver watching the Eurovision song contest feeling totally out of my depth. Flash forward to 2008 and not a lot had changed. Stev...

Paris Holds The Key To Your Heart (Part II)

Upon reaching my hotel. I checked in and swiftly headed to my room. Ironically, it was the same hotel I'd stayed at when I came to France in 2003, right in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower. Michelle, Ja...

Mimi Strikes Back (Part II)

My New Best Friend

I know I was a very lucky child. I don’t think my parents had much choice to be honest. I was an absolute nightmare, as they like to remind me and I can freely admit. People might think I inheri...
