I can keep you all in suspense :)innocent:) no more...shaggystyle


What do you do for a living?
Software Engineer. I write financial software for the medical industry.

Since May 2007

What other modes of transport do you have?

If you could have any bike what would it be?
I’m awfully happy with the FZ, but I might be interested in a BMW F1200GS.

What are your hobbies apart from the bike?
Home-brewing, Backpacking/Hiking, Drinking

What is the best place you have visited on your travels and why?
China, went a few years back and stayed with a buddy from undergrad and his family. We did a lot of travelling and I got see parts of the country most westerners never do. Different areas alternate between painfully beautiful and astoundingly depressing. It had a huge impact on me.

Describe yourself in three words?
trusting, open-minded, pig-headed (yeah, just try and resolve those last two….drives my GF crazy :p)

If you could redesign any household (including garage) appliance what would it be and why?
Alarm clock, there just has to be a better way to wake up in the morning.

Which invention in history would you most like to have come up with?
Suspenders, so much classier than wearing a belt.

If you ruled the world, what is the first thing you would outlaw?
Belts (VIVA LA REVOLUCION DE SUSPENDERS!!!)…..or car salesmen

If you were forced to entertain us all at the Forum Christmas party - what would your talent be?
Juggling or my incredibly bad trombone playing.

Snow or beach?
Snow, hiking in the snow is an almost spiritual experience.

Windows or Mac?
I’m an equal opportunity user, each has its strong/weak points.

F1 or MotoGP?
They’re both better than NASCAR.

Which track or album rocks your boat?
iTunes says: Milk Eyed Mender by Joanna Newsom (album), 2nd Place goes to Galore by The Cure (album)


What is your favourite film?
I’ve got three: The 5th Element, The Saint, and Back to the Future (trilogy)

Meat or Veg?
Vegetarian, although I’ve been known to cheat for some good sushi.

What is your favourite beverage?
Beer, I’m particularly fond of milk stouts.

And finally, your number one rule in life?
Everybody gets a second chance, nobody gets a third.

Great interview Shaggy!

True Sushi means you're not cheating at all... it's only rice! Fish is just a condiment for it. ;)
