Aggressors - The new hero pulp

Reading reviews of a genre

Tag I'm it

My good mate Dave tagged me with the question "Tell us five things we didn't know about Aggressor Brad"

1) I have an autographed copy of The Lost World video signed by John Rhys Davies. It made a nice change from signing Lord of the Rings/Indiana Jones stuff for him.

2) My nickname growing up was Alby after Alby Mangels, because my surname is Mengel.

3) I once used Sherlockian deduction on someone I had just met and scared them by how much I knew. I used to work at Woolies as a trolley boy and nearby was the carpark where the clubbers would park. I noticed this car as I drove in at 7am to open the store and the car was still there at noon. I noticed that someone had kicked the car and called security. I was rather concerned about the young lady who was driving the car and told them so. I then had to explain that I didn't know the person whose car it was but the glasses and hand lotion told me it was a young female.

4) As much as I love Science fiction, crime, action adventure, I don't like Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings. I can't explain why, I love Buffy, Charmed, Angel, Hex, Supernatural but Harry Potter no interest whatsoever. Lord of the Rings same boat.

5) People tend to perceive me as sweet and innocent (which is unusual for a male I know) I lend them Philip Jose Farmer's A FEAST UNKNOWN, it shakes that particular notion about me. Heh heh heh!

You don't like Harry Potter. *GASP* That's insane... Oh well, I forgive you. :-D

That story sounds interesting- about the car and everything. It must have been sort of scary. I have the same promblem as you in number five. Everyone thinks that since I'm a short girl that I'm innocent. Than they get to know me. Oh well.

Brad's not updating his blog anymore because he updated his computer and completely lost the password to get in here. He's tried asking the Opera folks for help, but there's nothing they can do. But he's good with that, because he's currently concentrating on a book he's looking to get published soon. PM me, if you like and I'll pass a message on to him and he can contact you.

Or I'll tell him about your comment when I go to Brisbane to raid comic book shop 50 cent bins with him, tomorrow ... :rolleyes: :smile:
