A few years ago I wrote to the BBC and told them they could keep their programs and I would keep my money. Ive got a little portable DVD player now and I watch films and programs I get free from the library
Its amazing what a library card can do.

Catch-22.
I like Horror and Science Fiction as well and read Stephen King, he can be a bit cheesy at times but good entertainment. Peter Straus is disturbingly brilliant and I like Arthur.C.Clarke and Asimov. Im a bit of a geek when I think about it

Took me two Years! But I didnt give up. Was the film more or less boring? mmmm At least when I was reading it I didnt have to listen to that boring music. Oh, and that Harry Potter crap.
I'm mostly into art, books and films. For a long time I used to drink alot but I'm finished with it, as Billy Connolly said 'I drank it all in a wann'r'. The truth is life is better when your sober. Sobriety sees colour, when your drunk you only see shadows of your self. Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. As long as I win more than I lose.
That day I oft remember, when from sleep
I first awaked, and found myself reposed
Under a shade of flowers, much wondering where
And what I was, whence thither brought, and how,
Not distant far from thence a murmuring sound
Of waters issued from a cave, and spread
Into a liquid plain, then stood unmoved
Pure as the expanse of heaven; I tither went
With unexperienced thought, and laid me down
On the green bank, to look into the clear
Smooth lake that to me seemed another sky.
As I bent down to look, just opposite
A shape within the watery gleam appeared,
Bending to look on me. I started back;
It started back; but pleased I soon returned,
Pleased it returned as soon with answering looks
Of sympathy and love. There had I fixed
Mine eyes till now, and pined with vain desire,
Had not a voice thus warned me: 'What thou seest,
What there thou seest, fair creature, is thyself;
[Paradise Lost, Book IV]
This is a bit harsh
Who I'd like to meet: Dunno, Any suggestions?.

Good to hear/read. Pictures from your show look great- I like the golden men paintings. Your dream is very intriguing. A couple of nights ago I dreamt that I turned into an eagle and killed Anubis. I really have no idea where that came from.
I hurt today because Johnny Cash and June Carter are departed along with my half sister(suicide) and my brother in-law(cancer) and all those who have died fighting for the pursuit of freedom based on lies.
Hey Jeff....Thanks for the add...loved the picture of yourself and your site. Your list of movies was interesting too. Don't worry about the money...money is like energy...it comes when you need it :)
