Title: Weirdos Online
Post by: MN Dave on January 31, 2008, 09:22:33 AM
No, I'm not talking about myself.  ;D

I wonder how many dangerous criminals are online posing as "normals." Anyone know? ;)

I was thinking, what if the nicest guy on a message board was actually a serial killer?  >:D

Well, as they murder as a team, I counted Knight and Gurn as one for the purposes of my study...

I recall a film mentioning he also killed a flutist from an orchestra because their playing was inadequate to him. Although it was a long time ago and my memory sucks :P

BTW, did you know that Hopkins actually is supposed to be a very good pianist (I understand that's what he really studied?). And he composes too...! He recently declared he was giving up his acting career to realize his dream: go on tour as a pianist, playing his own compositions! :o If his piano-playing is half as good as his acting, with similar control, technique etc. - it could turn out interesting. But somehow I doubt it. Still - nice to see the guy following his dream (unless all this is made up - I can't tell for sure).

I know he's also supposed to be a decent (landscape) painter.





(No, I do not stalk the guy. :P)

If you knew, you'd be dead already.
