"The world is like a ride at an amusement park. It goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it's very brightly coloured and it's very loud and it's fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time, and they begin to question: Is this real, or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, they say, "Hey don't worry, don't be afraid, ever, because, this is just a ride ..." And we ... kill those people. Ha ha, "Shut him up. We have a lot invested in this ride. Shut him up. Look at my furrows of worry. Look at my big bank account and my family. This just has to be real." It's just a ride. But we always kill those good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok. Jesus murdered; Martin Luther King murdered; Malcolm X murdered; Gandhi murdered; John Lennon murdered; Reagan ... wounded. But it doesn't matter because: It's just a ride. And we can change it anytime we want. It's only a choice."

I'm really into my music, although my guitar is sadly of little use other than looking cool at the end of my bed. I used to do a fair bit of DJ'ing, but since moving back to London I haven't really had the chance, which sucks, but the time will come again! These days I try and get to as many gigs and clubs as I can.
Let's see, I'm a big fan of Alex Grey, and H R Giger's art work. I collect weaponry (3 Swords, 1 Axe, 2 Daggers, a mace, Riddick's Sabre Claws from the Chronicles of Riddick, and a pair of gauntlets currently.
By the end of this year I hope to have started on my quest to be a qualified skydiver :D I did a tandem jump in New Zealand and it was the single greatest thing I've ever experienced. The sense of freedom and detachment from everything around you is beyond comparison, and something I could never hope to do justice to here!
I like to travel and have been to various countries in Europe, along with New Zealand, Australia, and the US. I'd love to go to Egypt, and I also desperately need to get to Rome and Greece still from the European side of things, all for their history. The scope and scale of these places, and the events associated with them defy comprehension. The Trans-Siberian railway also, for some reason, seems to hold some kind of inexplicable lure to me. |

| Sport: |
F1. That's about it really though. |
| TV: |
Blackadder, Family Guy, Scrubs, Lost, Dr Who, and Spaced. I don't watch very much TV. But while I'm at it, ANYONE who can stand more than 20 seconds of reality TV without being violently ill should be shot immediately for their own good. Really, it's the lowest of the low, idiots doing uninteresting tasks and proving that as time goes by intelligence becomes less significant just so long as you can dress like a whore and act cheaper still, if I wanted to see that I'd look out the window. Entertainment is supposed to allow you to escape the rampant idiocy that is rife in today's world, not shove it down your throat while you beg for more. |
