About Me

According to the National Center for Health Statistics, I am the average height of a male in the United States; so I've got that going for me.
6% of the planet's population and I are farsighted and wear glasses.
I usually wake up at about 10:00 AM, which I justify by usually staying up until about 2:00 AM.
I shower in the morning. If I work that day, then I take another shower in the evening.
I don't shave everyday.
I drink coffee or, more often lately, tea when I wake up.
Almost without fail, I have granola for breakfast. Although lately, I've been having breakfast at the diner around the corner every few days- it's cheap and I like that all the waitresses call everyone "Hun."
Lunch and dinner vary.
At night, at least three or four times a week, I drink vodka tonics or occasionally a bottle of red.
I watch, on average, an hour of TV a day, which is three hours less than the national average.
Other than TV, I watch a lot of movies. I would say that I usually watch 5-6 movies a week.
I usually read for a few hours a day, but that sounds more intellectual than it really is- I really only enjoy reading fiction and not always good fiction at that. I've read some tremendous garbage.
I wish flannel would become cool again.
I miss smoking.
I'm ready for spring.

My Interests

I like lots of things.............
Lots of things.

Just a few of the things I like:

My bike and the subsequent riding of my bike. My Mac. Coffee. Anything that has been grilled. That first scissor cut through a fresh piece of construction paper. Dogs. A good pepper relish. Shooting pool. Spaghetti Westerns. Scrambled eggs when I'm hungover. The night before a hangover. The Office. Camping. Hiking. (Generally, just being outside is alright by me.) Indie films. Board games. Wine.

I'd like to meet:

Someone else who watched, and fully enjoyed, The Six String Samurai.

Music:

I listen to a lot of different stuff, it just depends on the stellar and planetary alignment. It would be easier to list the stuff I can't stand:

Maroon Five (and every other temporal pop sensation)

Emo. Jared Leto and the 30 seconds to Mars. Eye-shadow on anyone but Robert Smith. Etc, etc, etc.

Kenny Chesney and all the other formulaic, slide guitar driven, "every-man" morons.

And finally, gangster rap.

Movies:

I love movies. When someone says,

"Hey, what should we do?",

"Let's go see a flick."
Is always a good answer.

Some of my favorites are as follows:
The Big Lebowski (anything by the Coen brothers really), Lock Stock, Fear and Loathing, Pulp Fiction, Pool Hall Junkies.

Television:

I hate to admit it, but I watch alot of cartoons; it's cool though, really- they're adult cartoons. The sunday night line up on Fox is probably the best thing to happen to TV since Archie Bunker flushed a toilet in front of a live studio audience.

Books:

Is it possible to list a bunch of authors or titles without sounding like a pompous ass? I guess if I listed off the Hardy Boys books or Howard Stern's autobiography..........

Heroes:

This is an easy one- Macguyver. Hands down, no contest.
