About Me

I'm a straight-forward guy, full of complex layers yet a consistent reliable personality. I come across different for every medium, depending on how comfortable I feel. At best I am funny, politically incorrect, sarcastic, deep, caring, honest. I'm considerate, down to earth and laid back, preferring the same around me. Mentally I am very aggressive, so don't mistake my friendliness or niceness for weakness. See you at the bar! ..

My Interests

I come alive at night. I'm all about good food, drink, friends, and atmosphere.
