"Very few cities in the NHL have the history or the following of the Detroit Red Wings. It's been a great honor for me to be a player for the Detroit Red Wings, to play for an Original Six franchise. I know I'm far from perfect, but I learned a lot. Every player should have the opportunity to play for a city that supports the team the way (Detroit) does." - Steve Yzerman

Quiz Created on GoToQuiz

You know my name, what else is there? Well since your at least pretending to want to know more, my close friends would describe me as pretty laid back, but very picky; someone who knows what he wants, knows what he doesn't want and isn't about to settle. They would also say I'm slightly OCD, observant, analytical, super competative, private and guarded, but a good time, fun loving, party guy who they can always depend on. I'm spiritual, not religious (yes, there's a difference... the Ten Commandments are nice), and am fairly new to Las Vegas; relocated from Portland, Oregon just over a year ago, but originally from Michigan. I work a lot (travel 75% of the time), been known to see the inside of a gym a few times a week and enjoy staying active. I'm very outgoing and spontaneous, which can frustrate my group of friends from time to time. I enjoy pretty much anything from road trips to sports (playing in local leagues, taking in a 51’s/Wranglers game or a fight – it is Vegas!) to the outdoors (running, hiking, rock climbing, skiing, snowboarding) to an evening out taking in a show/concert/drinks at a quiet lounge. I took a personality test recently and the results said, "You are elegant, withdrawn, and brilliant. Your mind is a weapon, able to solve any puzzle. You are also great at poking holes in arguments and common beliefs. For you, comfort and calm are very important. You tend to thrive on your own and shrug off most affection. You prefer to protect your emotions and stay strong." Oh, I was also told my lust quotient was 61%; "You are a very lustful person - and it sometimes gets the better of you! You know how to hold back, but you hardly ever do."

What are you, a cop? What's with all the questions? Ok, fine - I'd like to meet someone who doesn't ask so many questions.
What type of person do you attract? Your Result: You attract Yuppies!

You attract the very well-dressed, job oriented type of people. They usually have their finances together, are 'middle of the road' on most topics, generally happy with the 'main-stream' of things. If it is stability you are after, these are good people to attract, if you seek adventure, it may be time for an overhaul.

Quizzes for MySpace"Oh, you hate your job? Why didn't you say so? There's a support group for that. It's called EVERYBODY, and they meet at the bar." - Drew Carey

Music:

My job requires to me to travel 75% of the time, so I'm constantly on the go - even when I'm back in Vegas. So when I am home, I like to listen to anything that helps me put the engines in neutral and recharge the batteries; Jazz and Blues and old school Motown/Soul mostly. In my stereo right now, you'll find... Al Green, Alicia Keys, Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Gnarls Barkley, Jack Johnson, Marvin Gaye, Michael Buble, Jason Mraz, Louis Armstrong, Stephen Lynch, 'Swingers' soundtrack, Sergio Mendes, The Temptations, Tony Bennett. When I do listen to the radio, depending on my mood, its either ESPN Radio, 92.3 or 107.5.

Movies:

My job requires me to be very serious most of the time, so the movies which spend time in my DVD player are comedies or movies with lots of action and mindless violence. From the sports classics like Caddyshack to Slap Shop to some of the more recent classics like The 40-Year Old Virgin or Anchorman or Wedding Crashers. The typical guy movies like Animal House, Apocolypse Now, Band of Brothers, Beer Fest, Beer League, Boiler Room, Casino, Dodgeball, Fight Club, Full Metal Jacket, Glengarry Glen Ross, The Godfather, GoodFellas, Jarhead, Office Space, Oceans Eleven (the original Rat Pack version), Old School, Raging Bull, Reservoir Dogs, Rocky, Rounders, Sideways, Super Troopers, Swingers, Thank You For Smoking... they never get old. But yes, I have seen An Inconvenient Truth and Little Miss Sunshine.

Television:

Shows I Tivo (or would)... Cheaters, Entourage, Family Guy, ESPN Classic, First 48, Grey's Anatomy, How I Met Your Mother, Intervention, Love Connection, MythBusters, The Closer, The Office, Seinfeld, The Sopranos.

Books:

I made one of those cheesy New Year's resolutions a few years ago to read a book a month. And yes - I've kept up with it. No one likes a quitter, right?
