I'm Canadian, loves music, books, spending time with my wife and kids, and the pets, life's too busy, so enjoy what time you do have.

I have been working a lot of hours lately, so my ratings have been behind. I do promise everyone on swap-bot this : I ALWAYS send and I ALWAYS rate. No exceptions.

For music, I like all types except for thrash metal or industrial as it is called, I'm not really fond of hard-core rap music or opera or accordion either. Everything else I'm game for. For swap, I really enjoy mixes. For instances, if it's about 60's music, I like all types - a whole range or different artists. Compilations are the best, it gives you a whole range of a particular genre.

For colours, my favourites are black, blue, red, my least favourites are mauve, pink, violet.

I love to read - I'd have to say my favourite authors are Sue Grafton, Robert Asprin, Gregory McDonald, and some of Terry Brooks. I guess it's mostly a mixture of light science fiction/fantasy, and also mystery thrown in.

All time favourite movie would have to be the movie 'Alive', A number of other favourites include 'Tremors', 'Aliens', and Lord of The Rings trilogy.

My favourite show of all time is 'Mythbusters', I'll go out of my way to catch that show. A number of other favourites include shows like 'Cheers', 'Scrubs', 'CSI/Law & Order' , 'Top Gear', 'The Dresden Files' and that's about it.

I love the art of origami, although I've never taken it up myself. Stained glass and intricate embroidery also interest me, as well as modern day art such as tattoo design, for instance. I'm also a fan of paintings, from seascapes to fantasy paintings (Boris Vallejo), to great photography like Ansel Adams and great amateur photography.

I love chocolate, white chocolate not as much. Caramels are great as well as toffee, and exotic and unique chocolates are preferred over store-bought ones. I'm not much of a fan of bitter or dark chocolate, preferring the regular kind. Other great sweets for me include real maple syrup, red licorice, jolly rancher candies, just to name a few.

NOTE : I'm ALWAYS interested in music swaps - Private swaps are most welcome, feel free to contact me anytime!

BONUS : If anyone can guess where my avatar is from, I'll send you 2 mix CD's as a bonus! Hint: MUSIC
