About Me

Mad scientist sensibilites. Office worker by day, hard core electro-raver by night, a man of eclectic tastes. Visionary, (like in the cartooons, you know the guys with the holograms on their chests), comical (like the Beano pre '89), hairy (like any self respecting half Turk should be), arrogant (I'm so much better than you, I just can't help it!), bespectacled (as in I have a visual impairment), dance monkey (ha ha ha, see me at Bangface.com in the picture and video sections, I go a little crazy!).

My Interests

Anything to do with science, nature, history, politics, hardcore music (and raving, I go raving quite a lot. It's very tiring dancing for eight hours, but very rewarding), philosophy, literature, Scrabble... Well, let's just say I never get bored and can always find something to talk about, to think about, to pursue or get confused by. I'm one of those people who wants to know everything, but doesn't seem to get there, kinda like Henry's Cat (He knows everything about nothing, and not too much about that).

I'd like to meet:

The lovely Eliah:Plus:David Attenborough (he's the absolute don), George Bush (so we could have a rochambeau competition, with me going first of course!), Patrick Moore (monocled astronomer/Gamesmaster, could he be any cooler?), Patrick Stewart (Picard was hard), Peter Andre (same reason as Bush), Alan Partridge (not Steve Coogan though), a really intelligent particle physicist to help me understand gravitons and relativity better (good luck), most people. I have met few people I don't get on with in some way, even if it's only for the smile they bring to my face as I push them down the stairs.

Books:

Wow, I read a lot so here is a selection - Anything by Robert Rankin, Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams, Tom Holt, Tom Sharpe, George Orwell. I'm reading Umberto Eco at the moment, he's my new favourite author. I even read all of Dan Brown's books (they were all pony if you ask me). I also sunscribe to New Scientist which I read every week, so I'm always reading something.
