I'd like to meet:

I am not looking for extra-curricular activities, just trying to find my friends and re-connect.

I grew up in Brooklyn, NY, moved to Greene(Cincinnatus, Smithville Flats) in 1988, from there we went to Binghamton (Conklin) in 1991, then to Rochester in 1996ish. If you think you know me from any of these places shoot me a message, if you don't know me then please just leave me alone. Thanks.
