I tend to agree with that.
So...you're me?
Don't confuse me! I'm trying to get to know individual posters!
Oh, alright.1. I really am a musician.
2. Other than music, what I love most of all is traveling.
3. I'm a die-hard cat person, but I'll give dogs the benefit of the doubt if they don't slobber all over my hands
.
Only three? Hmmm....
1. I'm a writer and artist.
2. My life revolves around the Arts & Sciences.
3. I'm driven to help people.

I didn't know you were from Ireland, trampledamage. Do you have an awesome accent?
This sounds like fun!
1. I love music and enjoy listening to Classical, Oldies, Country, Pop/Rock, and Alternative.
2. Although not an expert, I'm proud to say I have good English grammar and writing skills.
3. I like this cute Armenian guy at work, but he's likely a straight guy, and I wouldn't dream of approaching him (though I've spoken with him a few times).

1. I adore music - listening (I'll listen to almost anything) and playing (flute) and singing. I suspect this is due to being the daughter of a music teacher and being related to the late Sir Malcolm Arnold, a composer.
2. I think theatre is one of the greatest things in the world.
3. I love to write.

Thanks!- I'm currently recovering from a trimalleolar fracture in my ankle
- I'm an air force cadet
- I'm not a squirrel!
Ouch! Get better soon! Also we all know you really are a squirrel.
It's quite a burden on my training. I can't stand on my left leg for at least six weeks, and after that I can only gradually start using it again. It's likely I have to do the second half of my training again in september with a new batch of cadets.
Ah well, I get paid...
Ouch, Drone, you sound like my friend who finds deep meaning in stolen glances and exchanged greetings, hoping a relationship will materialize on its own. edit: though as a straight guy I guess I shouldn't be encouraging you to hit on a brother. That's like treason. 
I guess I'll do some
1. I've been mostly bored and lonely lately, what with moving to a new city, with a new language. I'm a little overwhelmed with everything, so I can't seem to get my shit together and stop slacking off at uni.
2. If I had to choose between rock concerts and snowboarding as favorite hobbies.. I couldn't.
3. I used to doodle the piss out of my notebooks. I love and am fairly good at drawing.

1. I have spent 29 of my 35 years with a Dalmatian for a pet (not the same one, mind you).
2. I tend to be really quiet among people I don't know, and have generally relied on other people befriending me rather than being proactive about it.
3. I lived in Canada illegally for 5 years before getting my immigration paperwork finalized!

Yeah, it sucks ballz. On the other hand, I do not hope for or expect anything. He's a crush; that's all there is.
Unfortunately not, sorry
I'm English by birth and raising, and despite living in Ireland for... 18 years I've never lost the accent.
1. Whenever I visit my Grandmother I immediately go to the piano. I would play for hours and hours if I could get away with it.
2. I usually remember my dreams, and they can be rather crazy. Especially right after I've watched Doctor Who or Buffy or something.
3. I used to be an avid reader but I don't find time to do it as much these days.

1. I'm a snob about a lot of things, but usually I manage to not let it on around other people.
2. I have a sick sense of humour.
3. I enjoy the crazy dreams I often have.

1. I'm an atheist

Jeez... just three? All right...
1. I have a math degree from the University of Waterloo, which is one of the top universities for math and computer science in North America, if not the world. (Spinoff companies include Research In Motion, which invented the Blackberry.) After 12 years as a COBOL programmer, I transitioned to Web development and now work primarily in PHP and .NET.
2. Despite the heavy math background, I also quite enjoy artistic pursuits; I've performed in stage musicals and Shakespearean/Marlovian drama, co-wrote a teleplay for Star Trek: Voyager (which they held onto for well over a year before declining to buy it
- we were told that the turnaround time would be eight weeks to eight months, which is how we're pretty sure they were seriously considering it), and once auditioned for the Broadway production of Rent. (No, I didn't get it. ) For those who know what filk music is, I wrote my first filksong in over 20 years a few months ago. (That's a long hiatus, I know, but I've never really considered myself a filker. I just had a sudden burst of inspiration, and had to write it.)
3. I have a tendency to take on more work than can possibly be healthy; an acquaintance, who at the time was a bartender at the bar I used to frequent, once nicknamed me "the boy who can't say 'no'" because at the time, I was working on three separate science fiction conventions and trying to start a fourth, non-SF convention. (For those of you who have me friended on Livejournal, yes, that's where the name comes from... who needs context?) Right now I only have two on the go (though it was three for a while, when I was in charge of Events for last year's Worldcon). And that's while maintaining a full-time job and, until recently, a long-distance relationship. And yes, I do get at least six hours of sleep per night (usually).
Edited to add:
Paraphrasing Chris Lowe? Are you trying to get me to fall in love with you?
"Paninaro" is probably in my top 20 favourite PSB songs.
(In my experience, very few non-Petheads even know who he is. 25 years as part of one of the most successful pop music groups ever, and his name means nothing to people who call themselves "music fans"... because if the act is older than Lady Gaga, they pay no attention.
