Meh? I'm an avid reader, and occasionally I write, poetry and short fiction, usually. I'm really trying to write more consistently; I tend to write in little spurts and then go through long periods of writer's block. I live in a remote little town in Alaska where it rains basically all the time. About the user name: a fireweed is a wildflower which grows all over the place up here in Alaska, my avatar is a photo of one.
Yes, the evil captain was the scariest (torture scene - eewww!), but when people don't run away when something is coming to eat them... I get creeped out

Could be, could be. ^_^
Haha, yes, 'The Highwayman'... it was on a mix CD that a friend sent to me while ago. I had long loved Noyes' poem to begin with, and when I actually sat down and listened to Mckennitt's lyrics, I did this odd spastic, "They put this to music?" fit of glee.
