Ouch … Tara, thanks for the torture. Seems you have an idea of the last thing this introvert wants to do, is lay out five things about myself that others don’t know. This is all part of Jeff Pulver’s torture test, of Five Things People Don’t Know About Me game.
Here goes:
- I keep a linkblog on spooks, although its not as up to date as I would like, if I had more hours in the day
- I just (recently) left my old company (a Bank) and …. more (hopefully) exciting things to come very shortly
- I love Japan, and would stay there in a flash if I had proper mastery of the language
- I lived in the Yukon for 3 years, and yes the mosquitoes are that big
- I have a wonderful Japanese wife who keeps me organised, and gets my head out of the clouds once in a while
So that’s the best I can do. I will pass the torture baton to, a couple of introverts, and three extroverts. Sorry Duarte … next time!

Hey
I’ll wait patiently for my chance…or may I won’t and I’ll just do it anyway.
As for your 5 things; I already knew them all but I am intrigued to hear about your “exciting things to come very shortly”. I’ll be staying tuned.
