About Me

I actually live in Toronto, but HiFive won't let me enter Toronto as my city b/c it would not accept my postal code. Anyway, I use mostly facebook, but I decided to build a HiFive profile for those who want to get to know me over the Internet, without compromising my anonymity. It's hard, but I think I can pull it off.

Interests

Outdoors, Theatre, IP law
As for sports, Basketball, Volleyball, Swimming, Skiing, Swimming, Rockclimbing, Windsurfing

Favorite Music

jimi, The Beatles, Thievery Corporation, Primus, Led Zeppelin, Portishead, Kraftwerk, Télépopmusik, Joao Bosco, Joao Gilberto, buena vista social club, Bobby McFerrin, Bonobo, Morcheeba, Massive Attack, NIN, Manu Chao, Kruder & Dorfmeister, Groove Armada, Orbital, Yonderboi, St Germain, Depeche Mode, The Sugarcubes, Emiliana Torrini, Joe Satriani, Apollo440, Daft Punk
 

Favorite Movies

My fav movies change constantly, but I generally enjoy most movies starring Kevin Spacey or John Cusack, as well as movies by Kusturica, Almodovar, Truffaut, Oliver Stone. I also like dark action movies, like Ronin, which remains one of my favourites.
I'm a sucker for non (and sometimes sub) standard, non-Hollywood movies, especially the artsy, low budget movies coming out of Europe. This is one of the reasons that I go to the TIFF yearly.
Also, nostalgia: The Party, The Neverending Story
 

Favorite TV Shows

The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, Family Guy, SouthPark, Mad Men, the riches
 

Favorite Books

I no longer read books for entertainment - live theatre & movies have replaced them. Most of the books I read these days are non-fiction, and there are hardly any favourites. Most of what I read is spit back in my blogs, at http://inbonobo.com
 

Favorite Quote

"Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; Small minds discuss people."

"The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience."

"You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the thing you think you cannot do."
======
Eleanor Roosevelt
US diplomat & reformer (1884 - 1962)

"Those are my principles. If you don't like them I have others." Groucho Marx(1890-1977)

"Personally, I'm always ready to learn, although I do not always like being taught." Winston Churchill 1874-1965

"I have never let my schooling interfere with my education." Mark Twain

"Men are born ignorant, not stupid; they are made stupid by education." Bertrand Russell

"We are shut up in schools and college recitation rooms for ten or fifteen years, and come out at last with a bellyful of words and do not know a thing." Ralph Waldo Emerson

"truth is never pure and rarely simple" oscar wilde (?)
