Hi, thanks for visiting my user page.
[edit] About me
I'm a vaguely sociable cynic living in delightful Paris,France but of Canadian extraction. I "work" ostensibly as a consultant in a tax-payer subsidized investment bank. This affords me a lot of time to read or contribute to wikipedia and uncyclopedia on days that I don't feel too serious.
I enjoy: reading a good book, window shopping, dim lighting, a snowy day, an after-work cigarette, and beautiful girls.
I dislike: travelling to third world countries, spending time in pubs, cooking, and haggling.
[edit] Interests
