When I am not browsing the web or updating my page from school, I like to go to my place of employment L & R Heritage Roof Restorations and sell myself to people on the telephone. I know you may think that telemarketing makes up the scum of the earth, but do I really seem that bad to you? Honestly, it is just yet another way of earning a living, which becomes rather expensive when you have a $5000 loan for a car, a $5000 personal loan and the cost of running the car and paying for my Kyuss addiction as well.(luckily I have no other addictions to add to the weight of my hefty Kyuss one)
I don't really go out much except to do stuff with my friends like see movies
every week or so, and when there is a long weekend or some other excuse I love
to take the opportunity to go to the country and fly along the heat-hazed
highways at 130 with the stereo up full, blearing Kyuss, Regurgitator, White
Zombie, Korn and TKK into the atmosphere. My friends, Knud and Tony, who are
into the same musical shit as me (who are discussed on the index page) live
in Lismore (if you get out a map you will see that it lies about 800-900km
north of Sydney) and they too go to University studying the same kind of shit as me.
We tend to meet in the holidays back at Lightning Ridge (another 900 or so
Km from Lismore) and fuck around doing very little except watching fucked up
movies and going out camping in the stinking summer afternoons and freezing
desert nights and coming back to town freezing (and them hung over) early
in the morning to play Thomas' computer games all day till we decide to camp
again (and of course get pissed again) that evening. I look kind of like Jesus, I am told on numerous occasions, because of the beard but I am tall, about 6'2" and weigh 65kg so you can kinda get an impression of me without a picture (they are scarce), and have dark hair with the customary shoulder lengthedness common to metal people. I have been considering getting personalised KYUSS number plates but am met with the dilemma of the fact that Kyuss rule so much they make me want to, but it makes reasonable drivers bad ones if you have personal plates. What do you think?
I also do some work with a company that does Archival Audio Revivals and that
involves stuff like getting old home-cut 78's and restoring them to remove
the audible hiss and all the splats and cracks in the sound. It is pretty
cool work and the pay is good but it makes you heaps critical of all the music
you hear, for example if it is a badly recorded tape you really notice
the clipping and hiss present in the recording. Anywhoo, it is excellent and
it is actually paid work that I enjoy. Any warez ftp's at all would be cool, as I have about ohhh, two whole sites in my repertoire. I have connected in the recent past to Mirabilis' ICQ network, which for those of you who don't know, is simply a network to enable an almost realtime chat between people across the world. Kinda like an IRC chat, this also allows you check if a registered user like myself is online at any given point in time, and if so you can pass messages across, hold a chat session (almost as good as Telix for this) or use the program as a frontend for a 'voice conference' (eg. cool talk). This may sound like I am employed by the Mirabilis promotional team to push their program, but it just aint so, I love the program. That's it.
My UIN is ???. Gotta go but with that info browse my pages or go elsewhere a better person for it. (ha ha ha..)

PS If you are looking at trading stuff with me I am always welcoming a fair
trade for Kyuss material (or even for rare Karma to Burn or Tool stuff). The
stuff I have is listed here
and if you want anything, you need but to suggest a trade to me or others
present on the page. |
