Ok, so here goes with this thing...
Name: Ian Massey AKA Meles or Badger
Location: Devon, UK
Hometown: Tavistock
Birthday (sign?): 21st May 1985 Making me officially Gemini AND Taurus depending on the year / Newspaper.
Age: 25.... till next year.
Sex: Male.... one hopes.
Occupation(s): Unemployed Indy Flim maker and Fire Dancer (?)
Favorite Food(s): Italian and Mexican.... even better when they're mixed together, Chilli on a Pizza or Lasagne tacos... My student days were AWESOME!
Favorite Color(s): Red and Black..
What is the wing speed of an unladen swallow? What do you mean? An african or Europian swallow?
Toys: *Ahem* Pardon?
Seriously tho
HoP Monkey fist Poi w. Oval Links
Hop Sock Poi
Sonic Stars Tails
and a bunch I made outta bits and peices
Oh I also have a Gora's Fire Staff/Swords and some other staff I picked up at a fair.
Hobbies other than the obvious: Bass and Electric Guitar, Film Making and Acting
Education: I had one, but I try to ignore it.
BSc (Hons) Marine Biology... whole buncha GCSEs and GNVQs and more random Qualifications than you could meaningfully shake a stick at.
Favorite Book(s): People still read books?
Favorite Movie(s): Pirates of the Caribbean, Predator series and the Alien Series.. even the first AVP was pretty good... we dont talk about the second one.
Godzilla vs. a Star Wars Star Destroyer. Who wins? Why?
Star wars destroyer blatently... bit of an advantage being able to attack a ground target from orbit and Godzilla never learnt to fly... more interesting question would be Godzilla vs an Imperial walker.
Favorite TV show(s): Lost, Family Guy, Cleveland Show, 24, Metalocalypse
Plans for life in general: (i.e. what you want to do when you grow up) No plans, each day as it comes, hope beyond hope some of my scripts get made into hollywood blockbusters
Favorite Music Artists/Composers: Metal and Rock in general, although I tend to do all my Poi stuff to Trance, anything by the artist ASTRIX.
Do you think these pants make my butt look too big? I err... I refuse to answer this question on the grounds of NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE THEM!
Favorie ice cream flavor(s): Mint Choc Chip or Honeycombe
Marmite, Vegemite, or Nutella?* Marmite and Vegemite are harvisted from the Devils own magot infested colon and spread directly onto your morning toast, so neither of them... Nutella I guess, although I havent eaten it since i was about 12.
And I guess thats me. I love talking to other spinners around the world, so if ever you wanna chat, feel free to send me a message

Can it have Candy Floss smoke?
Or maybe rather than spitting out boulders it can spit out Marshmallows instead?
I'm liking this Volcano more and more

I will go for the candy floss but the marshmallow boulders put me off a little. It's meant to be as chocolatey as possible.

Hot Chocolate by itself rocks... additions of cream or stuff run the risk of making it too rich...
Though, a nice digestive biscuit with a hot chocolate is looovvvely

BB brew some straight black pekoe(best for sun tea) or do equal parts orange and black.
3 regular tea cup bags per litre.(Longer steeping will ensure stronger tea)
Bring your water to a boil throw in tea and let it steep for around 20 mins.
(Here's the trick)pour the tea into a pitcher after steeping and sweeten it before it cools. Set the tea in the refrigerator to cool it off to around room temp or less. *Remember that tea will get sweeter as it cools so be very careful with the sweetener.
Then add your ice and enjoy.

Astrix is indeed awesome, but holy god of awesome might be stretching it a bit.... i say this only because a face melting guitar solo beats dance music of any form hands down. Thus Dimebag or Kirk Hammet will always be a superior force...
Lasagne Taco's was one of my finest inventions as a student, I strongly recomend Chili Con Carni and Cheese Toasties or Bolignase sauce and cheese toasties.

agreed, tis an awesome guitar solo, i just cant get over the fact she looks like a christmas decoration.
and besides for TRUELY face melting guitar solos surely Skwisgaar Skwigelf is the one true Guitar God?
I couldnt find a video of Skwisgaar totally pwning guitar... so here's the Duncan Hills Coffee Jingle instead.
With Skwisgaar soloing the crap outta it

I wasn't interested until about 50 seconds in. Guitar solo sounds awesome, though I can't comment on the rest of the, er, 'jingle.' I may have to do some research on this
I suggest you watch at least 15 seconds of Hizaki's Zeal Link comment. Also, if you could possibly film your reaction and send me a link to it, I'd be much appreciative
I've yet to see something more impressive than the guitar duet in Silent Knight. I can't say I've tried, either The duet in question is at 4:23, though the entire song is fantastic imo.

I'll be sure to rig up my camera or something to film the reaction for you at some point, but kinda in a rush now, so later!
Yeah, Dethklok is a strange band, being animated, and death metal... but if you watch the TV show that they're from it will all make sense, tis called Metalocalypse and is from Adult Swim, same bunch who are responcible for Robot Chicken, Drawn Together and Aqua Teen Hunger Force etc.
Personally the Guitar Battle from Crossroads is always going to be one of the best
