Here on the left is a picture of me taking my life in my own hands at one of my favourite swimming places near Brisbane called Lake Manchester.

My name is Roger Waite and I'm a child of '69 (born May 3 1969) and I live in Brisbane - the best city in Australia.

My interests are many and varied and include writing, travelling, photography, history (particularly ancient history), socializing with friends, humour of most kinds, sports of most kinds (my favourites include rugby league, cricket, squash and golf), astronomy and Star Trek (long live Kirk, Spock, Picard and the adventures of the Enterprise).

Along with those interests I also love learning about the the amazing truths found in the Bible including the awesome future of ruling and beautifying the entire universe when we're finished fixing up the problems on this incredible jewel of a planet we call the earth!

Enjoy the many things on my webpage, live long and prosper, peace be with you and may the forces of evil become confused on their way to your house!!!
