My self-summary
We may be the only animals that pursue a life fraught with meaning, as if it must be so, and despair when it eludes us
I am one of over six billion [and counting] jumped-up apes clinging to the surface of a minor rocky planet trapped in the gravity well of a Class G2 star somewhere in the outer reaches of an unexceptional spiral galaxy - one among billions of such islands of matter in the observable universe. I do not think that we occupy any special position in space and time or that homo sapiens is any more remarkable than any other creature, both extinct or extant, however much we may want to believe our disproportionaly large brains set us apart. Knowledge, and technology, without wisdom and responsibility can be a dangerous thing.
Barring my love of gadgets, I prefer to live an uncomplicated life and am no slave to fickle fashion or popular opinion. I have come am looking for friendship, as the hours I work, my lack of a car, and reserved nature make it difficult for me to find people with similar interests and/or values, particularly in the small and fairly conservative city I live in.
What I’m doing with my life
Drinking deeply from the Pierian Spring.
I’m really good at
Um....not much, really.
The first things people usually notice about me
I care not enough to interrogate anyone on this trifling matter.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Books: Primarily science fiction and fantasy,both comic and serious, with a smattering of military history, history and development of languages, genetics, prehistory, astronomyand modern physics [provided that the maths is explained to me from first principles.] Among the authors I enjoy are Isaac Asimov, Stephen Baxter, Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams,J.R.R. Tolkien, Guy Gavriel Kay, Tom Holte, Jasper Fforde,John Gribben, J.D. Barrow, and Raymond Feist.
The six things I could never do without
Mental stimulation
A well-stocked library
A sense of humour
My extended family
Time to daydream
My gadgets
I spend a lot of time thinking about
From the age of 9 or thereabouts, I have spent a fair amount of time ruminating over the nature of the universe we live in,what Reality is, and whether we can ever know it, as well as what meaning we might reasonably hope to extract from our short lifespans.
I have heard it said that I am inclined to over-analyse my actions and motives.
On a typical Friday night I am
Doing my laundry, washing the supper dishes, trawling the internet for comic relief in the form of pseudoscience or harrowing the virtual dungeons of who-or whatever I do not owe any allegiance to while collecting currency, rare items and experience points.
Reading. [Of course]
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
Move along: no deep, dark secrets here.
