Nothing To Write About? Beat the Block W/O

Feb 16 '05

The Bottom Line Like everyone else, I'm not blocked, just killin' time..

1.) If you commute to work, what is the favourite part of your ride to or from your place of business?
I find travelling to work to be a tortuous experience, but listening to my MP3 player takes a bit of the edge off it. I’m fairly convinced that the majority of the general public have been put on the Earth for the sole purpose of aggravating me.

2.) List something that only one other person who reads this will understand.
“If I catch anyone going through my bins, I'll cut out their teeth, shamone, because I'm a Bad, Invincible, teeth cutting motherf*cker”.


3.) Favourite Books:
The Godfather by Mario Puzo, Trainspotting, Glue and Porno, all by Irvine Welsh, A Short History Of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson, The Football Factory by John King, Chronicles by Bob Dylan, Catch 22 by Joseph Heller, The Complete Peter Cook by Peter Cook.


4.) Most embarrassing moment?
I can’t really go into it on a family website, but it involves a photograph of an ex-girlfriend being discovered by the sister of another.

5.) What kind of pants are you wearing right now?
We don't wear pants in the UK, we wear "trousers". Mine, right now, are dark pinstripe suit-types.

6.) Gandalf or Yoda?
I’ll say Gandalf, due to Yoda sullying his legacy by appearing in Attack Of The Clones.


7.) What vegetable will you absolutely NOT eat? Brussel Sprouts, every specimen of which should be located and destroyed.

8.) Favorite Movie Quote?

“I demand to have some booze!” - Withnail and I

“Don’t threaten me with a dead fish!” - Withnail and I

“The doctors say he’s only got a 50/50 chance of living, though there’s only a ten percent chance of that.” - The Naked Gun

“How can you diagnose me as an obsessive compulsive, then act as though I had a choice in coming here?” - As Good As It Gets

"It's like, how much more black could this be, and the answer is..none. None more black." - This Is Spinal Tap

9.) Favorite Song Lyric?

"Othello told Desdemona, 'I'm cold, give me a blanket,
By the way, what happened to that poisoned wine?’
She said, ‘I gave it to you, you drank it’ “.

- Poor Boy, Bob Dylan

"I look at you, you look at me,
And deep in our hearts, we both know it,
That you weren't much of a muse,
But then, I wasn't much of a poet."

- There She Goes, My Beautiful World, Nick Cave

10.) Did O.J. do it?
More than likely

11.) Most embarrassing childhood crush?
Helen Slater in Supergirl

12.) Who is your favourite Golden Girl?
Never watched it

13.) What is your favourite time period?
Between 1996 and 1999 I had a ball, for many musical, social and chemical reasons.

14.) Movie you fall asleep to?
Anything with Richard Gere, Winona Ryder or Ben Affleck in.

15.) Name 3 CD's you can't live without? "
The Wall by Pink Floyd, London Calling by The Clash and Love and Theft by Bob Dylan

16.) Something you collect?
When I was a nipper I collected a lot of comics, some of which are worth a few bob now.

17.) Have you ever been in love? Yes

18.) Band you'd love to see on "Bands Reunited"?
Syd Barrett-era Pink Floyd, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, Led Zeppelin.

19.) Name a male and female celebrity whose fame completely baffles you?
Justin Timberlake and Victoria Beckham

20.) Your first automobile and how you paid for it?
Never owned a car.
