- Its 'cos I'm fat and have big earlobes, ok? Oh, and I'm actually called Bud.
- Interests
- Fine Cuisine - but generally not the overrated French stuff
- Favourite books
- Red Harvest - Dashiell Hammett; most Iain Sinclair and Phillip Kerr, some Conrad and probably too much Banana Yoshimoto
- Favourite films
- King Of New York, Dr.Mabuse, Sonatine, Braindead, Ascenseur pour l'echafaud... basically most of the original films that get pastiched by that worthless twat Quentin. If he ever tries to re-make "Les Enfants du Paradise" in any shape or form he's a dead man. There are limits and I will serve the time...

- Music
- Yep, it's good when it's not generic. My favourite song today is Fotografia off "A Day in New York" by Moerlenbaum2 and Ryuichi Sakamoto; yesterday it was "Salad Days" by the Young Marble Giants, the day before it was Ellen Allien's Fabric #34 mix. Go figure.
- Dislikes
- Questionnaires (particularly psychometric testing), Non-Scientific beliefs/Irrationality as a ideology, People who read Wiki rather than books - take the time, you'll be okay for it later, Anarchists who only listen to punk or ska or, even worse, punk-ska because they believe its genuine in some way, 99.99% of Celebrities

- What do your politics mean to you?
The retaliation of humanity against the organised mediocrity of the increasingly commodified niche-status of personality; the only definition of your value worth having is that of yourself and your social circle.

- Gramsci - Prison Notebooks, Marx - Grundrisse, Marx - Most pre-1848 stuff, Vaneigem - The Revolution Of Everyday Life, Ratgeb (Vaneigem) - The Book of Pleasures, De Sade - The Philosophy of the Boudoir

- As above
- Comrades re-united - political groups you were a member of
- Listing an eclectic grouping of failed movements isn't a positive act; if I wanted contact with ex-activists or partners I'd be on fakebook.

As above. Those who know me are aware of my previous!
