About Me

Right now I am spending time with my new found Miss Right. Yes be jealous, because I am a happy man.

I like to engage strangers like I know them. People are all pretty similar, but so many of us go through life without realizing it. My sense of humor is pretty unique. People usually totally dig it, or they totally don't. Either way is fine with me. I'm pretty easy going when it comes to getting along with people, and am not prejudiced. If you've got an opinion about something, we'll get along.

If you're hung up on someone's list, maybe you could just send them a note like from school. "Do you like me? Circle yes or no."

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Anybody interesting. We'll figure out the rest of it from there.

Music:

One of my greatest passions has always been music. My tastes are a little ecclectic though, and they're constantly changing. I like jazz, downtempo, trip hop, blues, indie rock, power pop, punk, hiphop, and even early country, original glam, reggae and ska. Rhythm touches my soul though and I've been hooked on nasty, rough, jungle since I first heard it so long ago. I'm realizing that I could go on, but if you don't love music, I'm sure this has gone on long enough.

Movies:

Dr. Strangelove, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Napoleon Dynamite, Pecker... meh, I'm bored with this for now.

Books:

Now I'm going with authors instead, because "Whatevah..whatevah...I do waht a want"

Augusten Burroughs, Bill Bryson, Hunter S, Bukowski, Legs McNeil, more later.

Heroes:

Dubstep and Benji waxing philosophical...

Here's a thought: maybe the whole "genre" of Dubstep is a misnomer. It's far too finite to be classified as a genre. I think it sounds pretty sick, but there is only so much you can do before every fi...
