| Introduction | I’m an Englishman barely living in Downtown, Los Angeles and just about everything pisses me off, except, that is, ‘the magician’. I know I wasn't angry all my life, in fact, I remember having a pretty happy childhood, though thanks to pharmaceuticals things got a little blurry from my mid-teens. I finally woke up middle-aged, with a clear 20/20 view of the horrors of the corporate world we live in, it sucked. Making things worse, I’d wasted my blurry life working in the music industry, though on a positive note, I recently got out to write a couple of books. The decision resulted in me having a dangerous amount of free time on my hands, and I spent it getting (way too) involved in US politics. I believe in social justice, so I suppose you’d label me as being ‘left-wing’, so that sucks too. My other passion is football (soccer) and my team; Reading just got relegated from the Premiership, which sucks more. That’s about it for now. |
