| Bio: | Imagine, if you will indulge me for a minute or two, entering an ancient house, moving between Gothic architectural pieces, past fine art that touches you deep in your soul and on into a study with the slight tinge of cigar smoke about it. Books are everywhere, and you approach a large oak desk, behind it a chair faces the opposite direction towards a flickering log fire. Slowly it swings around, revealing a dashing man with a pencil thin moustache and slick black hair. He is wearing a silk robe of some kind, oriental in design and holds in one hand a large Cuban cigar, the other a tumbler of some golden liquor. "Well it appears you have found me at last Mr Bond, but you have made a critical mistake, I know kung fu." Unfortunately the above events are entirely fictional and hold little resemblance to myself, a twenty something IT professional with a slight fascination to living. Nor do I have slick black hair or a pencil thin moustache. Or kung-fu. Or smoke cigars. But you get the point right? No?! Fine then let me tell you a little about myself... Born in the early 80's I grew up travelling every few years because of my fathers work, I am perhaps a little to honest for my own good, a little to fearless and at the same time a coward and a liar. I attended University in Hull where I studied Software Engineering, and have remained there ever since working in a couple of places. I look a lot like this:  Ignore the girl trying to creep into the picture, just a work colleague wanting some camera time with me. Not that I blame her, I mean who wouldn't? Add modesty to that list of great character traits I possess. Currently I do technical things for a software house, seldom to say they are now owned by an Evil Corporate Empire and will be destroyed in the revolution. My friends describe me as 'passionate, determined, experimental, techno-hippy' and 'a comic genius wrapped inside the form of a constantly self developing person, with passions for the creative and the bizarre'. That's all a bit much for me, but I think techno-hippy sums it up pretty well. I am currently experimenting in not eating meat, ala being a vegetarian, I read a lot, one of my goals this year is to read a book a week, the other to get fit. Currently both are progressing with moderate success. I have a passion for trying to understand things, ideas, concepts and people. I love making connections and getting to know someone, that point when you actually converse and understand. Those are magical moments. That's about all you need to know. Any more then ask me a question, my answer will either be 'I am not telling you' or far more detailed than you really wanted. You have been warned. Love me, Love the ruler of the New World Order. It makes things easier in the long run. Buy me things. For general birthdays, holidays, or just if you feel in the mood. Your kindness will not be forgotten when my iron fist holds the world in its all consuming grasp and even the rain asks for permission to fall from the sky.  | |||||
