Sup Guys?
I thought I'd start this topic so we'd all get to know each other a little better. Feel free when you post your likes and dislikes to add more "options". But anywho; here's my likes and dislikes. :)
Favourite Food: Hmm, would have to be chicken.
Favourite Number: Strange, I happen to enjoy 7. Not sure why.
Favourite TV Show: Would have to be 8 Simple rules.
Favourite Movie: ANY 007 film, can't beat those. Oh, also Shade too.
Favourite Cards: Arrco US Regulation, blue TH9 Circle Backs and WPT Bees.
Favourite Card: 7 of Diamonds
Favourite Card Video: Hmmm, probably Spring Jam CC Edition. Damn, that one was HOT! :|
Favourite Magic DVD: I'd have to go with Daryl's Encyclopedia of Card Sleights. Loved that, helped me out a lot when I needed it. :)
Favorite Card Sleights: Top Shot and a two-handed Faro Shuffle.
Favorite Card Flourishes: Jackson 5 and anything I do from day-to-day.
Favourite Magic Routine: Damn! So many! I'd say Immaculate Connection, Overkill, UNSHUFFLED, Prior Commitment, Your Signed Card, Marlo's Matching Routine and any Bannon routine.
Favourite Magic Books: AOA Series, Secrets of Bro. John Hamman and DMF.
Favourite Band/Artist: Death Cab For Cutie, MSI, Moby and anything with a cool beat.
Favourite Song: Currently it's Green Day - Time of Your Life. ut I'm sure that'll change in an hour or two!
What I Hate Most: When something I believe I "created" turns out to be something already done.. bah. lol
The Thing You Wished You Did, But Didn't: I wish I got into card magic sooner than I did.
If I could Change Anything of Any Sort, It Would Be: I'd have my grandfather here with me. He used to love my magic (even though I was a complete noob and didn't do card magic when he was around) and I owe a lot to him for inspiring me to continue with what I do best.
Thanks grandad xx

Jarret,
I am sure that is an exaggeration. If they hated you that much, they would have given you up for adoption, would not have brought you over to Australia to migrate and you would not have the money and freedom to do and buy as much magic as you do!
Teenage angst and hormones can mess up perceptions. There's a very helpful book I recommend called "The Five Languages of Love". while it is targetted more for couples, adult singles and parents, the insights are excellent. check out the website below.
http://www.fivelovelanguages.com/ Even if you don't buy the book, I think just the basic description will give you an idea why I say what I do. okay, end of sermon! :P

Its a long story in which I dont wish a talk about here,but thanks for telling me about the book anyway.
