About Me

I'm some fat bloke that spends all my time reminiscing about days when I could see my toes and fit in my bike leathers... I blame age and genetics for that state. As well as America for fast food. School for making me lazy. Oh yeah, and my parents and Radman for introducing me to alcohol so readily. Basically anyone except me really. You, perhaps? Yeah, cool...

My Interests

Walking, reading, going to the theatre. My ass. I've seen too many CVs over the years for that shit. This lifetime I have been mostly enjoying drinking with my friends, playing music with my friends, talking crap online with my friends, playing games online with my friends but getting bored of it (also with friends). Oh, and I really love motorcycling. I ride a Gixxer 750 K4. Got a race licence but am too much of a waster to do anything with it other than a single trip to the gravel trap. What can I say? Motivation is an issue for me now I've found WoW...

I'd like to meet:

Jesus H Christ. Then I'd know for sure whether I should be repenting, or at the very least expecting something in the way of an afterlife.

Music:

Bits and pieces all over the place. Mostly Warp-influenced stuff recently, anything with some groove. Have a dim and distant past as a metaller too, Carcass being a fave from back when.

Movies:

Definitely not musicals, westerns or gangster films - die Julie Andrews you Austrian mafioso cattle rustler. Otherwise geeky sci-fi, anything dark, violent, headfuck and/or funny - Doctor Strangelove, Alien(s), Akira, Platoon, Fight Club, Predator, Bladerunner, Spinal Tap. Any '80s US comedies, esp. Police Academy, Goonies, Fletch, Spies Like Us. You get the idea.

Television:

The adverts? Mostly better than the trash I've seen on air recently.

Books:

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, 100 Years of Solitude, H.P. Lovecraft, Tripods, Steve Jackson's choose-your-own-adventures, takeaway menus.

Heroes:

Rich Akhurst. A man who gives the impression he's lived many lifetimes, mostly with Tibettan monks with a penchant for absinthe and gouging out dead sheep's eyeballs. Awesome.
