    Only if you choose to buy into romantic BS.

    If your chosen mate is your friend, all will be right with your world.
    If you *need* someone to love you, you will be lost.

    Or... just be rich, then who cares? :))

    I'm not the relationship type. Or people type really, aside from a select few I know I can trust.

    I try. :)

    I used to draw a lot. I submit a bit of fan art now and then. I'm mainly into 3D art (concept art/video game art/animation), and currently working on a couple of games. I'm learning to use a game engine ATM. I dabble in 2D/3D animation- also working on a CGI Bond film. I'm trying to write the script for these projects, but it's not easy putting together an intelligent story. I'm interested in making original music, especially for the game and Bond film. I've also started collecting and making Bond props.

    Pay no attention to that sort of drivel, 0BradyM0Bondfanatic7; life is very much what you decide it is going to be. Have some fun with it.

    Nothing wrong with being interested in guns; one of my hobbies. Just take the time to learn how to use one. Very little worse than an untrained idiot with a firearm.

    Polishing my knob.

    I love a bit of brass rubbing, it gets me all excited, I do it everyday if I can.

    No, it isn't. I have been trying to outline an espionage story for the longest time now. Obviously, to no avail. But maybe one day soon...

    Not really. I find all periods interesting in their own way. And the longer I read up on history, the more I agree with Harry Truman: The only thing new in the world is history you don't know.

    I'm particular keen to the history of the Ancient Rome, the Crusades and the Second World War.

    I am a contemporary man of history, but enjoy finding out more and more about presidents and the like.

    Lots to be learned from all three of those periods. Plenty of parallels to be drawn, I think.

    I used to do lots of boxing when I was younger (Rocky got me into it more than anything) but I stopped when I joined the army. I'm a big F1 fan. Something else I love is football. Watching it and playing it.

    I'm a big fan of cars and motorbikes, I work on my bike lots in my spare time. I go to the cinema alot, I go to the pub alot, I like doing DIY at home, I read and I play video games, I play drums, and I've done skydiving and BASE jumping before.

    LOL! I got into boxing after I joined the army. Go figure!

    More of a hockey fellow than football (US or European).

    Hockey over both of them! :)

    Like Australian rules football, though.

    I love random facts so I suppose you could say I have an interest in that. For example, I've recently been reading up on the Troubles, only because it was mentioned in Skyfall.

    My hobbies are surprisingly girly. My favorite hobby is baking, but I also like to sew. I like to draw as well (I'm an art major but I haven't done much with it yet)

    You are an artist too? I would love to see some of your work, whatever it may be.

    Yeah, but he said right after what's depicted in the painting, Vader kills Spock.
