CURRENT MISSION

Mission 3: Start hosting again in my new flat.

ABOUT ME

I love ideas, technology, science, evolution, movement, patterns, music, categorization, and fat.

I hate conventional wisdom, pointless traditions, malfunctioning systems, and carbohydrates.

I am sometimes reserved, sometimes impulsive, sometimes well behaved, sometimes abrasive, generally dissatisfied, always looking forward to better things and ideas to come along.

PHILOSOPHY

"To change misery, disease, failure and poverty into joy, health, success and prosperity, I must think, speak and act in ways which are the exact reverse of how most people think, speak and act." - James Arthur Ray (Quantum Creations)

"Ideas are not reserved for those that hope, ideas are not reserved for those that wish, ideas are not reserved for those that complain; good ideas are reserved for those that search." - John Rohn

Music, Movies, and Books

MUSIC:
There is no love as Detroit love.

BOOKS:
Non-fiction (science books these days)

MOVIES:
I am no movie fan but I do enjoying watching movies for sure. I have three tips for you for movies I saw recently about autism and Asperger's syndrome. Please watch them and spread them, people need to understand people on the autistic spectrum more and these movies are of a great help to do so.
