breakfast... :-(

Ed. 4 year hons degree in languages, 2 years assoc dip in Electronic
Engineering, a few programming courses for interest. (work that! out),
Advanced Frame, 2 years? Wing Chun
Interests, etc. Motorcycles, photog. (b/w & color), music, chicks :-) (Can
I say that?) Studying languages, currently Korean.
Beer or scotch? Red wine. beer if it's really hot and there's no white
wine, or there's a Corona lying around
Pets. Not any more, live in a apartment, but all the usual suspects have
come and gone.. dogs, cats, birds, cow, horse, fish, red-back spider,
currently the closes thing is a possum that lives in a palm tree outside my
apartment.
Major dislikes: exercise for its own sake, rap and hip-hop "music" :-(
Trying to think before breakfast.
