Sure, very offended, or lazy.

New Orleans, an Ex-city, used to be something. Sushi, just so I belong to some group.

Computers, printing, color.

I like machines. Elegant mechanical function. Electronic control systems.

Mostly I just think.

My current obsession is sushi. I eat it everyday at the restaurants around work and I'm also making my own today, yay :D I've watched tons of videos on the web about sushi preparation, love them! I even posted a sushi thread in the Random Discussion forum.

Interests: travelling, language; history, particularly 600ad to 1300ad; architecture; cars and production optimisation (pays the bills and make me the lively centre of any party :) )

I live in middle Tennessee, USA.

I no longer know what I like.

I used to have things that interested me but now everything has changed and I'm not sure what the hell is going on.

I'd like to live in Machu Pichu. Or New Zealand. Or Ireland. Or Canada.

I'd like to take a cruise to somewhere.

I play the guitar.

And 7 will go into twenty-two 3 times.

I live in London, UK
I like animals, especially rabbits and cats, the internet, books, writing (sometimes), exploring London and finding new places, old London buses (routemasters and RT's), London Underground (tube) maps, old London Underground stations and old tube trains, learning about myself and how AS has affected me personally, learning new craft skills, making things. I am fascinated with ghosts and the paranormal, but wouldn't necessarily say I like them.
