I'm a wannabe DJ and I own a guitar - thats about as far as my personal musical fantasies go. Yes, I take drugs, I practice my own kind of martial art and play football whenever we can be arsed to to turn up at the park. Basketball is also cool but buggered if I can play it. I want to TRAVEL! Anybody that wants to travel with me, well...where shall we go? Macchu Pichu, Japan, China, California to New York via Chicago...anywhere else? I want to learn Japanese. I love photography and don't let a lack of talent or resources get in the way of my enjoyment.
What else? People. Connections. Causality. Evolutionary biology. Chaos. Humanism. Fractals. Languages. Religions. Climate change (it goes with the job). Glaciers.
Music
Do people actually read lists and lists of bands? Who cares? I like most things, excepting pop, country and western and death metal. I hate Queen.

I'm not quite sure why, but Internet Explorer is a piece of shit. Go download FireFox instead.
I'm quite tall.
I have curly hair.
I read a lot.
I think too much.
I like walking.
I prefer mountains to beaches.
I put 'Cancelled' stickers over posters advertising gigs by bands i don't like.
I've been described as 'irritatingly intelligent' yet i'm socially inept. It's a fine balance.
I often say stupid things that offend people i like, even though i don't mean to.
I spit, pick my nose and sometimes bite my nails.
I have a phobia of spiral staircases.
I introduced the term 'Arse Pirate' into the Italian language.
I am proud of that fact.

Who I'd like to meet:
The Greatest Governator to Ever Rule the World
Someone to talk to. Someone to share time with. Someone with opinions. Someone to discuss things with. Someone who loves music. Someone who likes walking. Someone interesting. Someone to listen. Someone to care. Someone who looks good in lingerie.
Just a quick note to invite you to Le Bateau next Tuesday, the 7th October for the return of Adult Books!!! We're now on monthly on the first Tuesday of each month- it's gonna be ace, so hope you can be there! lotsa love
Thats the short Cartoon that family guy was based on. Not as rude as it was on Cartoon Network but its still got some good bits. Took me about 3 watches to get the Euthenasia joke.
Just been watching the Wayne Brady Chapelle again, its so funny how they turned such a family friendly guy into such a gangster. 'Oh shit, its Wayne Brady!'
