[X] Mark (view Henry's profile)
Name: Mark Akaky
Age: 24
Hometown: London, England
Current Residence: NYC
Job: Professional Blogger
A little bit about me: One year ago I was sitting in a posh office in downtown London, about to start my life in the business world. And then catastrophe struck: I downloaded an MP3 onto my computer at work. Harmless, don't you think? Two days later I found myself fired, fined, and jailed. Collateral damage of the digital age.
So here I am, living to New York City with my childhood friend Henry, making a go of it in the blogosphere. Enjoy the posts, and feel free to drop me a line!

A little bit about me: Hello, Internet! It's me, Henry Scott. You've probably heard of me. If not, here's a primer. I've been a stand-up comedian in London for the past few years, before I realized my true calling: blogging. I didn't like the comedy world much anyway. Too many agents. I hate agents. In November 2005 me and my best buddy Mark packed up for New York City, and here we are, proud parents of BathTubYoga. What else? I like Ginkgo Biloba and Ginseng, and women love me.

That's the problem with Hackers, they never die. Just like that superhero, never-die-man.

Our boys are in terrible danger and the only thing that can save them is a scene so gory it might as well be porn.

I remember when I first met him. The first thing I thought was, "wow, he's tall."
Over the years I came to love him, despite his height. No, it wasn't a sexual love; it was the love of admiration, the love of hero worship. I would have given my life for him if he would have just asked; but it seemed like I was always doing the asking.
Sure, there were bad times. I would get frustrated with him, I would scream and cry and demand change, improvement, reform. Why wouldn't he listen? Why couldn't I cut through the facade and touch him behind that cool smirk, that perpetual reminder that he was always content to be who he was?
But the good times always followed. Times when he could do no wrong, when I thanked God that I met him and that this world carried his presence. Sometimes it seemed like he had all the answers, and it scared me to think that I could depend on someone so many times for so many things. Looking back, I wouldn't have depended on anyone else; I couldn't have.
But ten years later, here we are -- no, here I am. He is gone. My friend and countryman is leaving me and all the others that he's touched. He is moving on to the next stage of life, to a place where I can't reach him and he can't hear me call.
Today I will weep for Jeeves, and hope that he doesn't forget me or the times we had. Goodbye, dear friend.
