About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Sort out the 'New year resolutions'

ABOUT ME

re-defining myself. fighting endlessly against stupidity. would like a tattoo. Sex is nobody's business but the three people involved. healthy appearing decrepit 69 year-old male, mentally alert but forgetful. if vegetarians eat veggies.. what do humanitarians eat? note to vegetarians: My food poops on your food. Enjoy that salad! often I need what only you can provide: your absence. If you find it hard to laugh at yourself, I would be happy to do it for you; or even better, let's do it together! To err is human. To forgive for no good reason is plain stupid. I Love D. Never give up! If you read until here then we can already clear some things up when we meet ;)

PHILOSOPHY

L'amour, tu sais, ce dont il a le plus besoin, c'est l'imagination. Il faut que chacun invente l'autre avec toute son imagination, avec toutes ses forces et qu'il ne cédé pas un puce de terrain à la réalité ; alors là , lorsque deux imaginations se rencontrent... il n'y pas de plus beau.
Romain Gary

Music, Movies, and Books

Movie and book: "Lord of the Rings"
Books: "Love in the time of Cholera" by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. "Shogun" by James Clavell. Military Science books by Tom Clancy. "La vie devant soi" by Roman Gary. Most books of Tolstoi, especially "Peace and War". A sort of girlish book that really touched me :) "Les yeux jaunes des crocodiles" by Katherine Pancol. Lately, I discovered probably the best contemporary writer: Dean Koontz, his book "Velocity" is brilliant.
Movies: "Mystic River", "American history X" and "Gattaca".
About music, Metallica, Eminem, Papa Roach, Enigma and classical music. Also Opera, in particular from Puccini and Bizet.
Salsa music! Trying to become a good salsa dancer :)
