About Me

i manage myself like the finance minister of latin ecomony. as the finance minister will borrow money or just print more money to pay himself out of a sticky corner, i stave off bad moods with day dreams. i am not a realist. other than that i am ok.oh, and i don't feel at all funny at the moment. that would be ok but i am nerly half way through my comedy course.

My Interests

i am interested in my anthropology course and my comedy course. and football and the familiar smells of autumn.

I'd like to meet:

3 new housemates that are not freaks and are also not dull. i won't settle for anything less than that. i'll settle for freaks that are interesting or freaks that are warm.

Music:

need some new stuff.

Movies:

i watched the science of sleep the other day. i enjoyed it, although i didn't totally get it. once it gets cold i am gonna wear one of those hats to work all winter long tho.

Television:

don't watch it. now i am (temporarily) estranged from tighthead, i'll watch it even less.

Books:

Fup. I read this book in 2 goes the other week. what was best about it was that i was loving it and then 5 pages from the end it became appalliing and oh, i was so disappointed (if you'd seen my face). i soldiered on, lucky i did cos those last 2 pages, they broke my heart. i have never had my heart broken before. it was an odd feeling. i concluded that he made it shit five pages fromo the end just to make the ending more dazzling, just because he could. jim dodge rocks. since then have been trying to get my head round a book with 'dust' in the title. it is not my bag man. UPDATE - it is more my bag now. John Fante 'after the dust' is what it is called.

Heroes:

chris stringer. thierry henry: got divorced. so moved abroad. where he don't know anyone. and he scored a hatrick at the weekend.

My Blog

I can't sleep. I'm an idiot for reading an interesting book on evolution which was discussing testicle masses. Apparantly, the average weight of a man's balls is 1 1/2 ounces. If I was a drug dealer ...

Most of Ken's stories are products of his imagination rather than of his experience. Although (admittedly) the materials and tools an imagination uses to build a story are supplied almost completely b...

Gay Cavemen have been occupying my thoughts

Note 1: the statistics used here I got off the net. Note 2: At no point do I sneer these statistics like an angry pastor or right wing moralist. There would have been gay cavemen. I wond...
