Making unfashionable statements since 1998.

About Me

I am the same person at 30 that I was at 19, only older, with bigger (natural) boobies, a better car, more debt and a dog. I look for honesty and integrity in my friends, I love good beer, good food and good times with good people and while my past may be questionable, my future is TBD. .

I got my layout from

My Interests

healthy debate, ultimate fighting, junk food, gourmet dinners, cheap beer, good beer, venturing out, staying in, road trips, night flights (not a huge fan of flying, but love to travel - go figure), good deals, the occasional splurge, reading, writing, dancing in my pj's and singing in the shower (not in my pj's), meeting interesting new people, getting together with the same old folks .

I'd like to meet:

anyone who can explain math to me, someone highly skilled in auto repair that works for free (or for beer), my long lost evil twin (or good twin, depending on who you ask), Brady Quinn (so I can talk him into going with my Cleveland Browns next season and get my boys a new QB), the 2002 Stanley Cup Red Wings, Robert Downey Jr, the entire cast of 90210 (including "Emily Valentine", "Jonesy" and Joe E. Tata), the guy that ruined The O.C., the guy that cancelled The O.C., Rachel Ray, Bill Clinton, George Stephanopoulos, a bartender outside of Oxford, OH that knows how to make a Water Tower or a Mind Probe, the inventors of nachos, the onion flower, the lettuce wrap, and Hooters 3 Mile Island wings (bastard), the Stone Brewers who developed Arrogant Bastard Ale (thank you!), Raider Haters, music enthusiasts, movie watchers, t.v. junkies, and, of course, the man of my dreams.

Adios Doc.

I turned on my computer this morning expecting to see more wishy-washy articles on the DISASTER befalling the NHL. Completely disinterested at this point, I only half-way realized what I was reading ...
