Name: Grant Fisher
Email: gfisher@telkomsa.net
Qualifying Score: Sigma Test

Bio: I was born in Johannesburg, South Africa in 1970, and grew up in Cape Town, where I attended university, graduating with a Bachelor of Business Science degree in 1991. After having been conscripted into the military for
a year (ouch!), I worked for a few years in the retail industry before taking a job as an internal auditor in the entertainment industry.

I discovered the High IQ community on the internet purely by accident, towards the end of 2002, when a "pop-up" invited me to test my IQ. The results surprised me as up until then I had no idea what my IQ was. (I'm still not entirely sure, but realise that it must deviate to some extent from the norm.) As far as poetry is concerned, I've been writing the stuff (on and off) for about 10 years now. Writing poetry also came as a bit of a surprise as I grew up believing I was mathematically minded and not particularly imaginative. One night, a week before I was sceduled to got to the army, I found that I could not sleep. Hence the title of my first poem, 'Awake'. On a subconscious level however, I may have realised I was awaking to a whole new world...

My other interests include working out (weights, punch bag, jogging, tennis sometimes), reading TIME magazine and watching the occasional movie. I also have the odd ability to juggle with four juggling balls.

And I am a member of the ISI-Society
