This user likes userboxes a bit too much. Find all the info you fancy there. Somewhere.

Lots of further, personal and therefore absolutely irrelevant information can be found at the "About Me" subpage. So, if you want to know which movies I like or what music I listen to, be my guest. And, to be even more annoying, everything there is in userbox form. Have fun.
