I am silly on the net, earnest in town, and Jack in the country.
My Self-Summary
Mostly just the average guy I guess. Maybe a tad more
idealistic, perhaps with
a tiny bit more of
Rock'n'Roll than your average
Scooter or DJ Something fan.
And I got a handy flowchart:

What I’m doing with my life
working my ass off of course! Well, and having fun with life.
I’m really good at
Learning new stuff in a pinch. People often say that I'm kind of a
jack-in-all-trades sometimes.
Apart from that, you could look forward to pancakes, well-mixed
White
Russians, incoherent ramblings, well-put explanations for
something, philosophical diatribes and the occasionall odd
surprise.
The first things people usually notice about me
Apparently the
sideburns.
After that, I hope my good looks and sharp humor :)
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Books:
I used to make a point of re-reading the Hitchhiker omnibus and the
Lord of the Rings once a year. By now, I've stopped that, simply
due to lack of time and too much other stuff.
Generally, I'm into SF, Fantasy or just cleverly told stories. Be
it Stephenson, Niffenegger, R.R. Martin, Boyle, Dahl... there's
heaps of good books out there, begging to be read.
Movies:
No idea which one's the favorite. "Being John Malkovich" is the
best Mindfuck though, and the old
Dune movie the oddest epic. Incidentially,
I own and actually watch&rewatch more than a few dozen
DVDs.
Music:
Gabba Gabba Hey hey!
Food:
Anything but shrimps and 'shrooms I guess. Apart from that, there's
an old saying: Coffee for the mind, Pizza for the body, Sushi for
the soul....
The six things I could never do without
No idea really... so far, nothing physical I've lost was missed for
long. Internet connectivity is something I cherish though :-)
All the people I love and care for are still around somehow
thankfully.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
...just anything. I like thinking, I rarely don't do it. Often
enough, I even talk about what I'm thinking.
On a typical Friday night I am
being typical me. That may include wild but funny-looking dancing,
but also quiet evenings behind a book. Ask me next friday for
details.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
When I'm on the road for my job, I enjoy watching silly romantic TV
series like Gilmore Girls or the weekly "romantic movie" on the
hotel TV.
It's my guilty pleasure...
You should message me if
..you really want to. I'm not very discriminating in such things,
as long as you don't insult me or my intelligence. If you think
this could be billed as being romantic, it's a bonus:

xkcd is a must in my book)
Mind, it may be that the conversation peters out after a few
exchanges, but I'll honestly give it a try.
