Name: Sean which is the Irish for John, developed from the French 'Jean'.
Country: I live in the USA now in Washington State but I was born and I spent most of my life in England (UK). I lived in the beautiful county of Derbyshire. My dad, Pat was born in Ballina, Southern Ireland and my ancestors were aristocracy there. So if you want you can call me Sir Sean!
Coat Of Arms: This is the coat of arms for my family in Ireland. The coats of arms is set on a white background which traditionally is the heraldic color of purity, integrity and peace. The black saltire (or `X'-shaped cross) denotes a Knight of constant and resolute faith. Above the saltire are two nettle leaves, with a third leaf below. Nettle leaves are said to be symbols of an esteemed and educated Man (that's me - lol!)
Greatest Moments: These are not in any order, each one is special for many different reasons :o) 1. My first Michael Jackson concert in 1993 during the Dangerous Tour at Roundhay Park, Leeds, England. It was just incredible, I became an MJ fan for life that day. Most things I do, I have certain expectations about, the concert went past anything I could have imagined and it literally changed my outlook on life in a single moment. 2. Visiting Florida, USA and Disneyland with my sister Rebecca - twice in 1994, 1995 and then with my wife Desiree in 2005. Visiting America is a dream come true for most people, we see everything American in films nearly every day and to feel it, to enjoy it, is very special. Disneyland is a place of dreams, a place where everyone becomes a child and more open minded and friendly. Me and my sister watched Captain Eo starring Michael Jackson at least 50 times, we clapped and cheered each time. Yey! Re-experiencing everything again with my wife Desiree was cool, I got to show her all the places me and my sister visited but hey no Captain Eo! Removing it was a mistake Disney grrrrr... 3. Finding my best friend and the girl I love called Desiree. She is so special I struggle at times to tell her how much she means to me. At Christmas (2000) I kept a promise I had made to her a long time ago and I bought her a ring. I wasn't sure what exactly the ring meant, I know I wanted it to be a symbol of our friendship but also so much more. As usual Desiree sorted everything out for me, she said it was a promise that I loved her and it's true because I do. She also put it straight on her wedding ring finger which was the greatest compliment I could have had. I was so proud and happy but that's how she makes me feel all the time :o) Her present to me? She gave me her heart, all written beautifully in a lovely binded book with an engraved rose on the front. I've never received a present so personal from anyone before but that's Desiree, she knows how to reach inside me, into my soul. 4. Visiting Washington, USA in 2001 and spending time with my then girlfriend Desiree (now my wife). This was the best week of my life so far, without doubt. To be in someone's company and knowing you can be your total self is the greatest feeling. Desiree and I, we get on so well and there is a love between us which I know I've never felt before with anyone. I realised that I needed Desiree in my life forever, so on February 1st 2001 at Lake Quinalt, Washington - I asked her to marry me. She said "yes" :o)) 5. On Friday April 13th 2001 the biggest dream of my life came true, I married Desiree in England. I can't explain what it means to be married to someone like Desiree, only that she makes my life complete and I am the happiest I've ever been. For our honeymoon we went to Cyprus and we are now making our home in the beautiful State of Washington, USA.
6. My Daughter Seanna being born in 2007. Watching her birth was amazing, grown men never cry but the moment when she appeared was breathtaking and yes I cried. Now she is here, she makes every day special. Every parent will say their child is unique but truly Seanna is and every day she shows us how truly special she is.

Best Personality Traits: My wonderment, intelligence and kindness.
Worst Traits: I'm way to sensitive and it causes me relationship problems. I know it's a good trait really but only to people that take the time to understand. I'm also very strong minded (people I know say stubborn) and determined so don't f*ck with me!
Best Features: I don't concentrate much on a persons looks, I believe strongly that what a person is comes from how spiritual they are inside. This spirituality (or lack of sometimes) translates into how they treat others. I don't mix with people with bad spirits, none of us need to be around people who are inherently bad and there is no way to change these people. I've learned that you can't change anyone only yourself.. I also believe you should never criticise anyone over their looks and if you haven't something positive to say about another person then you shouldn't bother speaking. Having said all that, my wife Desiree insists that my best features are my eyes which are blue and my lips. She says women would die to have lips like mine lol! Apparently I also have nice eyelids - didn't know that was freakin possible - laugh!
Favorite Words: Fricken, frickin, blek, yey, dude, blar, um, hey, ermmm, mmmmmmh, good times (Adam Corolla says it on an American Radio Show called Loveline!) I don't care if all these are real words or not lol!
Interesting Facts About Me: My Mum Flo (short for Florence) is English, My Dad Pat is Irish. I grew up in a tiny village in Derbyshire, England. I have Two Brothers (Patrick & Stephen - who now prefer to be called Pat & Steve) and Two Sisters (Christina & Rebecca). I went to a Catholic School and then College. I'm a fully qualified Electronics Technician but I also Studied Psychology. I'm a British Citizen but I've been accepted as a Permanent Resident in the US. My Wife Desiree is American and we've been married 5 years (as of April 2006). We live in the state of Washington, our home is in a beautiful location in the countryside next to a Golf Course which we discovered we part-owned when we bought our house - lol!. The nearest town to us is 10 minutes away! We both enjoy our wonderful peaceful life together but we love the freedom to socialise whenever we want to.
Interesting questions: How do clocks know what time it is? Why is some poodles poop white? Did anyone realise Red Rum name, (the three-time English Grand National horse race winner) spelled backwards is 'murder'? Do women really trump or NOT? Can Keanu Reaves act? Does anyone know Janet Jackson's phone number?
Ambitions:
1. To stay happily married and have a good life with Desiree (5 years so far!).
2. To continue being successful in our new business, selling video games, dvd's etc...
3. To visit back home again (England) and see my family & friends (did that in January 2004 but I need to go again!).
4. To have friends who love me for who I am.
My Girl : This is my wife and my best friend. Isn't she beautiful? Hey and she is even more beautiful in person! And she's even more than that, she has a wonderful kind heart and she makes me feel like a very special person. Her kindness, love and devotion are something I've never experienced from anyone before. Every day I feel lucky that I found her. I love you Desiree :o)
Baby : This is our baby Seanna. Isn't she cute? She was born on February 24th 2007, weighed 7lb 11oz and 20.5 inches tall. We got her name while we were watching a Western TV Series called 'Deadwood', it's the middle name of one of the actresses on the show. We didn't consider it being my name Sean and Anna (in one name) but once we did then we decided to call our baby Seanna Desiree which is like Sean and Desiree. The name is Irish (Celtic/Gaelic) and means God is Gracious. We are pronouncing her name Sea-anna which is the Spanish pronunciation. So far she has been a good baby but hey I know - sleepless nights, diapers etc...but she will be worth it, she will be loved and cared for a lot.
My Kitten : Or rather Desiree's kitten. We named the kitten Mocha, after my favorite milk drink - laugh. Not that the kitten responds to the name, she is too young. All she knows about is jumping at things that move and being cute. Oh and she has a spazzy paw - for some reason she hardly ever uses both front legs but has one in almost permanent readiness for whatever - I told Desiree it's arthritis.
Admired Males:
Other males I admire: Dr Phil McGraw:- He is the life strategist on Oprah and his insights into life are incredible. Adam Corolla:- Loveline (as of 2006 he has his own show) - Radio doesn't get better than this and the reason is Adam, he is a natural talker with an amazing humorous insight into life. Don Henley:- His lyrics for his songs are some of the most thought provoking ever. Dennis Leary:- He is just so fricken funny and his humor slays me, every time no matter how much I hear it! Hehehehe......
The male I most admire is Michael Jackson. He sets a fine example to us all on how to behave (kiss my as* to all the retards who believe the lies and want to bring him down). It's rare, despite all the undeserved criticism he gets that he will come out and attack anyone openly. He has shown the world how much he cares, there is no star who gives his all to humanitarian causes more than Michael and his love for children is without question. As a musician, dancer and lyric writer he can only be described as an absolute genius and I admire his talent immensely. With all is new projects, he is proving that he is a really intelligent and fine business man . If you want to have a role model there could be no one finer than Michael Jackson.
Admired Females: Other females I admire: Janet Jackson:- Janet has come from behind the shadow of her brothers and shown us all she is talented in her own right. She is a magnificent example to all young people, as she has never shunned important issues. She's one of the leaders as far as aids awareness is concerned. I also admire how genuine she is with everyone, I've heard stories from fans who say she really cares and she will take the time to talk to everyone.
Oprah! Oprah! Yes I admire Oprah Winfrey more than any other female except my wife Desiree (sorry Oprah but she made me say it lol!). Oprah came from very humble beginnings and a terrible childhood to become one of the most intelligent and respected women in the world today. She has had tremendous struggles even as an adult but she has learned and is an example of how self love and knowledge can make you prevail eventually. I listen to her words sometimes and I'm shocked at the amount I can learn. Her new spiritual journey shows are a gift to everyone who is prepared to learn more about themselves. Oprah was once asked what is the favorite thing that she likes to do. She replied "I love sitting on my porch with a glass of lemonade and a great book. That for me is bliss". Now that is from a woman who is most likely a billionaire and she still has her feet very firmly on the ground!
Annoying People: I have to admit the most annoying people I come across at the moment are on E-bay, they sell you something which isn't as advertised then get annoyed at you for complaining. You have to question the background of some of these people! As far as other people I find annoying it's mostly people who speak without thinking or repeat something they've read in the media. They usually gripe on about Michael Jackson and although I've learned to be more tolerant, it really pis*es me off!
Favorite Football Team (Soccer): Barcelona, Spain. My favorite player is Rivaldo, he's Brazilian and in the year (2000) he was made the World and European Player of the Year. Oh I have such good taste :) My favorite player of all-time is Kenny Dalglish (Liverpool and Scotland), this guy was a genius and if he had been given more opportunities to play internationally, the world would be saying his name alongside the likes of Pele.
Favorite Sports: Aikido and Football. Aikido is a Japanese martial art and when the moves are in full flow it looks unbelievable. It's also a great sport to practice with huge benefits physically and spiritually. Football (also called Soccer, now I am in America I have to use the curse word!) has always been my passion I use to play it every day when I was a child. I have always had a powerful shot and the goalkeepers would run out of the way in fear of the pain of the ball hitting them - lol!
Favorite Sportswoman: The greatest woman athlete I've seen is Venus Williams. She is incredible, her movement on a tennis court is unbelievable and she has now taken tennis to a whole new level with her fantastic wins at Wimbledon etc... Hey and her sister Serena is very good too.
Famous Sportsman: You need proof that us Brits are tough? Steve Redgrave is the greatest Olympic endurance athlete of all time. He did something no other person ever did and won 5 gold medals in successive Olympics. As far as we Brits are concerned that made 2000 our Olympics!
Favorite Music: When I listen to music it has to have lyrics that have a strong meaning and great vocals. I don't have a type of music preference.
Music Artists/Bands: Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, Mariah Carey, Beyonce, 112, Lenny Kravitz, Seal and The Eagles (also Don Henley solo stuff).
Computer Games: I've got a Playstation 2! If you are into computers games but you also like DVD films then there's nothing better than a PS2. My favorite games so far are James Bond: Agent Under Fire (of course!), Grand Theft Auto, Gran Tourismo and Fifa Soccer. My all time favorite games on any system are Final Fantasy VII, The Sims, Championship Manager, UFO Enemy Unknown, The Longest Journey and Sanitarium. Final Fantasy is more than a computer game it's a spiritual journey for the character. It's fantastic! The Sims is a game of life where you control the often crazy acting, sims people. They have a habit of setting themselves on fire and peeing where they stand - amongst other things lol! I downloaded celebrity sims of Michael and Janet Jackson with a castle for them to live in (cosy). Championship Manager is where you can manage any football (soccer) team and it's just addictive! My team is always Barcelona and we kickass!@! UFO Enemy Unknown is a game where you kick aliens ass with your elite squad who tend to miss every alien and kill each other instead. lol! That's part of the fun of the game though but when you finally get an alien, the noise when they die makes it very pleasurable! The Longest Journey is a girl adventure, yes a girl! And this girl called April is really cool with an attitude to match! The game is one of the most interesting adventure games I've ever played, full of mystery and with a heart & soul. Sanitarium is crazy! It's full of weird characters and equally odd twists & turns but the game is also one of the finest adventures ever made with a real depth and feel to it.
Favorite Films: Breathless, Fried Green Tomatoes, True Romance, Apocalypse Now, While You Were Sleeping, Little Princess and Legends of the Fall. Breathless stars Richard Gere, he's a small time criminal and he steals a car so he can go see a girl he met while he was on holiday. On the way there he gets chased by the cops and he accidently shoots and kills an officer. He is then on the run but he's desperate to find the girl. When he first finds her she doesn't really want to know him but his charm and sincerity eventually make her heart melt. The girl decides she loves him and they both go on the run but she has her doubts because she thinks they will get caught and he will get hurt so she tells the cops where he is. The climax is where the cops are closing in and he is asking the girl if she loves him. She says "no" but he knows she does - the girl thinks by giving him up, she will save his life. The last scene is where there is a gun on the ground and a cop is ready to shoot him if he goes to pick it up.........Now you gotta go watch the film to find out what happens!!
TV Shows: Star Trek TNG, Sopranos, The Wire, X-Files, Andromeda, Emmerdale (Uk soapie), Oprah and Stargate SG-1.
Radio Show: Loveline - ever listened to it? You should! Adam Corolla (he left to do own show as of 2006) and Doctor Drew are probably the funniest guys to host a serious show about people's problems. You basically ring the show and get their advice which is often rigged with humor. This duo work well together, a brilliant partnership. Adam is the porno loving quick witted host and Doctor Drew the serious but dry humored expert.
Actors/Actress: Johnny Depp, Brad Pitt, Anthony Hopkins.
Favorite Food: The Captains Plate at Shari's, Caribbean style pizzas, chocolate digestive biscuits and snickers bars.
Favorite Drink: Mocha milkshakes, lager (German is best), root beer (I'm starting to be American lol!) and most cocktails.
Favorite Animal: Palamino horses. When I was a child I loved horses and wanted to be one lol! Btw skunks smell disgusting! Someone hit one with a car near where we live and it reeked for days arghhhh!!!
My Computer: It's an AMD Athlon (fricken fastest!) with lots of Ram, a rocket speeded graphics accelerator card and a DVD/CD Combi Recordable Drive. I built it myself and there's not much I can't do with it except maybe make toast - um perhaps it does? I also have a Laptop which I bought for business because of it's Wi-fi capabilities but I use it more for games - lol!
Internet Projects: I have 4 websites at the moment, 3 about music stars and another one which is my business website.
My Favorite Programs: For doing html and web design I use HotDog Professional. For logos I use Ulead Cool 3D. For creating and editing graphics or pictures I use Paint Shop Pro and ACD See. I'm always aware of online security so I recommend everyone uses a firewall and the best one out there is Windows Defender by Microsoft. For online chat and communication I use ICQ.
Asleep My Dreams: My favorite dreams are when I can fly. I show off to everyone quite a lot as I'm the only one who can. I sort of flap my arms and it just happens lol! I wouldn't say I'm an exceptional flyer as I can only get about 100 metres from the ground but it still annoys everyone so much hehehe....I guess my nickname Superman suits me quite well after all!
Daft things I do: I think one of the funniest things I ever did was....Well I was relieving myself and I leaned over the toilet and plonk....my mobile phone dropped in the toilet! I couldn't stop peeing so it got pretty much destroyed lol! Today though I locked myself out of my bedroom, I was annoyed so I set about destroying the lock with my best hammer, I was so angry I broke the hammer and the door!
Saying "I love you": Human beings can be very cruel. Some of the crimes we commit against each other are unforgivable. I believe the most hurtful and destructive crime of all is not being able to tell someone you love them when you do. Be careful, because you can miss the chance so easily as our lives can change in a moment and the opportunities to say it can vanish. We can leave someone unhappy for the rest of their lives because we never said those words. I remember a quote "It's not the words we say that hurt the most, it's the ones we don't say". If you love someone please tell them.
Friends: I've made a lot of friends during my life. Real friends are ones you could meet up with tomorrow after not seeing them for years but the friendship still remains strong. With me being away from home (England), I don't get to see a lot of my friends but here's to you all! Miss you lots but hey I know we'll see each other again!
I also dream about Michael Jackson and that I'm his best friend, I go to the studio with him and listen to his music. It's great because I get to hear new music tracks! I know it's my head that making them up but really it's sooooooo cool!!
