Curiously enough, the type of chicks he seems to attract are the ones with IQ quite above average... Like Missy, a pretty blond nurse from NY. She writes, and her talent is unmistakable:
"But all of this I saw without seeing, my mind fixed on a distant, heady
star. I carried Brian's face like a banner in my mind : Brian smiling his
kind, fateful little smile. That smile had bound and bent me; I was a
fish caught on its hook, caught in its net. Ovid wrote that love was
strong as death and harder than hell, and this love held me in chains.
I wondered : was my imagination false? Had I merely created a thing
to love? Then I looked across at Brian, with his firm, kind mouth and
those unforgettable eyes that could see things of this world and the
next. I had neither imagined or dreamed this rapture; it redoubled in
timeless force. I stood looking at him as if to draw him into my heart
by the looking. I belonged only to him. " (quoted directly from: http://forums.queenonline.com/viewtopic.php?t=2158 8&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=870)
Sadly and unfortunately, he has no idea about such sincere and boundless devotion.
Hardly. Brian used to have an inferiority complex of truly astronomical proportions about his appearance... as for meeting chicks... thanks to his total lack of any dating skills, one of the best Queen songs was written - White Queen (well, technically, it was written before Queen was formed, but it appears on band's 2nd album, cause Smile never recorded it...)

This is ironic on more levels than one...
Of course, the fact that his first college band was named 1984 is just a minor coincidence...
Shall we count all his facets, then? Guitarist, astrophysicist, stereo photographer, animal rights activist, involved with bone marrow donor association... me afraid the list might get quite long...
I'd like to add one though: a very nice guy. Never met personally, but from brief email exchanges - very friendly... and yes, nerdy.
Oh, and also: and incurable romantic.
If I forgot to mention something, this is due largely to my current BAL exceeding the norm quite significantly, and I'm a lightweight to boot. So much so that I cannot even spellcheck right now... so I apologoze for any and all possible typos...

...because entropy will win in the end. There's simply no escaping that. Well, OK, may be there is - only temporarily... for a few trillion years...

and, yes, B. H. May is indeed the very same Brian Harold May we're talking about here... Enjoy!
