MISCELLANY:

What got you into this whole "goth" thing anyhow? The music, partially. And the atmosphere and aesthetic.
What do you wear to bed? Nothing.
Do you decapitate Jelly Babies and Teddy Bear biscuits before progressing to other body parts? Yes.
If we made "ACG - The Movie" - who would play you? Bono.
If one thing could suddenly appear on your desk / fall in your lap, what would you like it to be? Honestly, right now, trite as it is, a million fucking dollars.
What is your greatest fear? Ageing, and ageing badly. As in disease, memory loss, regret, sadness, loneliness, senility, lack of dignity and slow, slow death.
Your last five holidays were where? London. Before that would have been trips to Brisbane, Adelaide and Cairns.
Which cartoon character are you? Johnny the Homicidal Maniac, and I'm not just saying that.
If someone's hitting on you - what's guaranteed to work? Sitting in the Devonshire Arms pub I had a charming French lady sit beside me, grab my groin, look me in the eye and say "I wan' to fek you." That pretty much did the trick. Unfortunately she was nuts and I was taken.
Can you keep a secret? Yes.
Who or what is your least favourite thing in the world? Endless waiting. Despair.
What gives you a warm fuzzy feeling inside? Being used as a nesting site for fireants. And having people say they like my work.
Anything else you want to say that you don't feel is covered above: Not really.
