    I find my mind its most clear and active between these hours.

    In my past life as a photographer and photographic manipulator, it would be in this window of time I would my best work. I have often wondered why.

    Even today, my skills are sharpest when the dreaded day star sinks beneath the sky and Luna dominates unopposed.

    :) Nice one!

    I work quite well at different times. If I've Pepsi or Red Bull I work great from 8am - 5pm. But if I've tea I can work from 8pm - whenever I get sleepy.

    I'm currently learning off a diagram for the Bad Side of Inflammation!

    It's just a big diagram full of diseases and what attacks the body to make them occur. It's tough enough to learn off.

    Yes, but not nearly as employable as a hench man or rogue scientist.

    As a mater of fact I may have a job for you soon... *strokes evil goatee*

    It would involve moving to Mt Doom. The pay is good, conditions so so, but you get a great new costume and lessons in manical laughter.

    Not exactly what I had invisioned, but orginal I grant you. Obviously as a Level 4 "hot zone" your labs would be air conditioned.

    Yes to most of the above ... though I don't tend to get more cynical at night, quite the opposite in fact, you want negative / pissy catch me in the morning before I'm fully awake (i.e. in approximately the first two hours after I drag myself out of bed! >_> )
    I quote! (as u can see)
    Also...I'm more creative at night.

    I work best at night simply because I can't stand having anyone around when I'm trying to do something. Always with the stupid questions:
    "Why aren't you wearing pants?" "Is that blood?" "Where is everybody?" "Why are you looking at me like that?"

    Yeah, and if someone does disturb you, you can produce the old lump hammer for swift killings, and have 'em buried before sunrise.:cool:

    Actually, that's why I keep a shovel handy at all times. Murder and body disposal implement all in one package
