5 Questions

Provided by  


More questions can be asked or you can ask me to set you five.

1. How did you go about quitting smoking?

I was never really addicted. It was something I got into as part of extra curricular activies of  . So really smoking was just the secondary thing to actually getting stoned. I would only ever smoke normal cigs on a night out, or if I was feeling particularly stressed at work. I was never the type to wake up in the morning and be needing to smoke. I also guess it helps I smoked rollies. It requires that effort to make the damned thing and then once you have you wonder why you did. Quitting was really because Sam wanted me to and that I really wasn't addicited and so I shouldn't get addicted if I wanted to be in good health. Also what with my thesis submission looming and other commitments it was the best thing to do while cutting down smoking in general (smoking to get stoned is more fun that just smoking, but getting stoned when you need to finish your thesis is not the best situation). So it wasn't that difficult. I was never an addict, just a social smoker.

2. Have you ever dyed your pubic hair?

Nope. Would I? No. I mean whats the point. I can only think that if it has ever gained a colour it would have been when showering to rinse out the hair dye on my head.

3. Would you ever want to become a famous professor in your field?

Fame is gonna be hard in my field unless I do something revolutionary. That's unlikely. Only physicists do that type of thing to chemistry. No I hope to famous in a very minor way, as in my papers get cited a lot and I get asked to talk about my work.

4. Would you ever grow facial hair?

I am lucky that I really don't have to be that tidy looking for my work, so I only really shave twice a week. That means I have a near constant stubble. But would I have a beard or something else. Not right now. But I have considered the goatee for the future when I feel I am the age where I can sport such a thing.

5. If you could play a character in a movie, who would it be?

Me of course! No really this is a hard question to answer. I guess I like either the completely insane characters (Joker, Patrick Bateman, Rorschach, Magneto) and more epic characters (Wolverine, Neo, Thomas in The Foutain). If I was to choose something that isn't a movie and to play a character from it I would have to choose Severian from the Book of the New Sun. It would make an epic, crazy scifi/fantasy film.
