Company
The Future Foundation
Favourite item in my fridge
There is hardly even _anything_ in my fridge, but the jar of mayonnaise on the bottom shelf of the door gets a special mention just for being there the longest
First job
Delivering newspapers on Northcliff hill. My starting pay was about R15.00 per week
All-time favourite a) book and b) movie
I don't have all-time favourite anythings; my tastes change too often for that. Right now, I'd say that my favourite book is Scott Adams' The Dilbert Future and although it is actually a TV series and not a movie, The Simpsons is my favourite visual bitstream
What I imagined I'd grow up to be
Someone whose job defies simple description. I'm doing okay so far on that one
Favourite self-cooked meal
Hmmm... this is the second food related question. Whoever thought these up must have been hungry. The only things I can cook are toast and omelettes, so I'd have to nominate an omelette on toast as my favourite self-cooked meal. I will learn to cook one day, though, really I will
Most admired human being
At the moment, probably Scott Adams. That's one very clever guy
Star sign
FWIW, I'm a Libran
My favourite distractions
Generating abstract computer graphics from audio signals
Shoe Size
Large. I don't know the specific size, but I have big feet
Years in ISP Business
Four
What year is your Car
1979. Really
How much memory does the computer on your desk have
There are a couple of computers on my desk, but the one I'm currently
using has 32 Mb of memory
If the answer is "always" what is the question?
When is the best time to learn something new?
A Bit about me
I'm a freelance thinker and meddler. I work mainly in the Internet industry, juggling industry politics and regulations with my desire to actually see some useful things happen occasionally.
I love meeting interesting people with fresh ideas, and I have a strong dislike for traditional corporate values and structures. I like to discuss really strange ideas and concepts with folk
who don't dismiss them just because they are odd. I enjoy reading, especially science fiction and I have many obsessive characteristics which can be incredibly annoying to other people.
I value my friends and family very highly and try to learn new things from everyone I meet
