In this video you'll find out a bit about the origins of my fondness for Cows apart from having grown up around them.

Gary Larson's The Far Side plays a big part in my life. Love it to bits. Back in the day I had a simple set of Far-Side-Inspired screensavers and also an original one with a huge amount of animations. Animated Farside Comics on your PC - what kind of magic was that? I'll show you!
