What a great character.
This guy had some nice ideas. However I can't identify with his lifestyle. From what I know about Greek philosophers I agree most with Epicurus.
:) I remember this from the book Sophie's World, which was a pretty good introduction to philosophy, at least when I was 14 years old.
Mr Wiggles will like how Epicurus still leaves a way for free will to exist. I always liked Democritus, from the little I know about philosophy. I think I'm an existentialistic hedonist. Sounds cool, if nothing else. I always find philosophy very fuzzy and too much focused and relying on the meaning of words.
Best een gaaf mannetje

Maybe make that physicalistic hedonist.
