About me
I'm an engineer and father of two kids. My career and private life restricts heavily the time spent on hobbies like gaming. My favorite games tend to be rated 18+, which means that I can play only when the kids are sleeping. Aside videogames, I like science fiction and horror as literature, I don't care about them as movies or on TV that much. My all time favorite television series is The Wire. Although I'm from Finland, a nation of ice hockey and metal music, I'm much more enthusiastic about NFL football and particularly the Baltimore Ravens. My taste of music covers most genres from opera to rap, with notable affinity to Californian punk and ska bands ranging from Black Flag to Fishbone and so on.

Online alias and its background
My online alias is named after the infamous crooked politician in Grand Theft Auto: The Lost and Damned. Of course there was the shock value of the nudity that caught my attention, but what I really liked was his frankness with Johnny Klebitz and his role as a powerful player both publicly and behind the scenes. It sometimes amazes me how few GTA players recognize the character behind my alias.

Presence In GTA Online
Shortly before the launch of GTA V for PS3 and Xbox 360, I joined a crew called Stock Criminals, founded by GTA Forums user GTAJeffery. The vision was to take advantage of the stock market by channeling crew funds through appointed investors and manipulate the market in concerted effort. Since the stock market aspect of GTA V never crossed over to GTA Online, Stock Criminals quickly reverted to an all-purpose crew of about 175 members, majority of them on PS3.

Ranking as a Commissioner and acting as co-leader of the crew, I negotiated swap of ranks between me and GTAJeffery In July 2014. As of January 30 2015, Stock Criminals is active on all four console platforms and plans to expand to PC as soon as that version is released. The crew has 205 members and is open for all players to join.

List of websites and online services
This is an incomplete list of websites and online services where I'm using the same alias. Feel free to contact me at any of them as well as here.
