Too easy - i'm calm and low key. The more frantic the surroundings the slower and quieter i get. Under stress i take a nap, in an emergency i'm darn near comatose. Value the truth so highly i use it sparingly and thus the reference to the Norse God of Trickery.

Tang = orange cat
Tango = nickname for him
Monster = 25 pound cat
With a little encouragement, I might just post a photo of him so you can appreciate him in all his glory!
And here you thought it was because I was a fantastic tango dancer.....

25 pound cat? Mmm some cat!
Mines pretty simple also. I live in the mountains and drive (1 to 1 1/2 hours) to the sea on some weekends to hang out.

This was started before I joined the forum. Interesting.
Well... there are two options.
1) Historical significance (has to be translated to English) - Translated version of http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinaco
2) The other... - Chinaco® Tequila Website
I will give you a further hint. I am Anglo and know little to nothing about the history of Mexico.
Alright, watch the comments... a guy has to have some sort of recreational activity.
As you can tell, I am a deep thinker.

Living i Asia I have learned to appreciate the teachings of Buddhism. I don't spend too much time meditating, but I have learned to relax a bit more. Hence the moniker.
