About Me

Alright, this is almost impossible to do without sounding lame, condensing everything you want to reveal about yourself into a few lines, but whatever. I have a job, love my friends, love to laugh and have a good time. I read a lot of books (1 every week or so), have a vocabulary so large that people actually ask me to stop using big words... what else? I'm a good-looking guy (you can see the pic, I'm not lying), intelligent and pretty easy to get along with (although I can be a prick sometimes, but I'm working on it ;-)I can list all kinds of the same interests, like going to movies, sports, bars, etc., but that's kind of boring and doesn't really describe anyone in particular. So here's some random shit about me: I'm fairly liberal, but open-minded, although not religious. I have a Jesus bobblehead on my desk, staring at me, judging me. I'm a godfather twice over. If I were an Aquateen hunger force character, I would be Shake. I'm addicted to HBO. I have too many dvds. One nil, to the Arsenal! I eat the mushrooms my friends pick out of their lunch. BUDWASH! I curse way too often. I'm psyched for the Outer Banks trip this year, and hoping to keep out the shmoopiness. I have three female roommates. The Who may be the best band ever. And I'm well-dressed and smell nice too. I'm very open, so if you really want to know something about me, just ask and I'll tell you. That's where I'll leave this.

My Interests

Pimping, and generally being awesome. Oh, and the ladies... Rowr! I'm attractive!

I'd like to meet:

The king of cool, David Hasselhoff. And supermodels.

Don't send a lame eCard . Try JibJab Sendables !

Music:

The Who, Dandy Warhols, Gordon Lightfoot (the guy is the original light rock smackahoe), The Beatles, The Shins, Beastie Boys,

Movies:

Braveheart, Lord of the Rings, Casino Royale (and any Connery Bond movie, for that matter), Knocked Up, 40-Year-Old Virgin, Old School, Caddyshack, Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, There's Something About Mary, Batman Begins, Cinemax after 11pm or so, blah blah blah. I love good dramatic movies but none really jump to my mind right now, so I'll leave this list at that. And porn. Gotta love the porn.

Television:

Sopranos, Entourage, Weeds, Dexter, Simpsons, Grey's Anatomy (is there a way to include that without sounding too gay?), Family Guy... again, this is a list that could go on forever, but I'm not giving myself carpal tunnel to lay it all out here. Basically I'm addicted to HBO and Showtime shows.

Books:

Shakespeare (of course better when performed--and easier to understand), America the Book by Jon Stewart, Greek Myths, The Gospel of Judas, The Lord of the Rings, A Farewell to Arms, His Dark Materials (trilogy), The Complete Sherlock Holmes, a lot of biographies lately and getting more into deeper histories (Andrew Jackson's biography was very good, same with "1776," an account of the Revolutionary War--the founding fathers seriously didn't intend anything like the world we live in... but then, a lot of people died back then for shitting too close to their drinking water, so consider the source). And by the same author (David McCullough), Mornings on Horseback, a biography of Teddy Roosevelt, and John Adams, a biography of... well, John Adams. Harry Potter... Anything not written by John Barth (a professor in college once told me I totally poisoned the well on Barth by slamming 'Lost in the Funhouse' before class discussion... still proud of that)... this is another list that could just go on forever. Whatever... I'm a dork, I like to read.

Heroes:

I'd say my parents, but that's become so cliche' in post-9/11 America... same thing with cops and firefighters. But I wanted to be this guy when I was a kid:

Reflections on lifes curiosities

Imperfections are what we see in others and love them, not in spite of, but because of them. How lovely is a fire... how it flickers and springs, ebbs and flows, the light playing on the eyes and mind...

It’s that time of year again...

It's October, and once again (although it was far from a foregone conclusion that it would happen this year), it's time for Yankees playoff baseball. And I'm as excited about this season as I ca...

Leigh Ann's weird chain blog thing...

Okay, so apparently I've been "tagged" in this game (which for some reason makes me feel like one of those animals on the old Mutual of Omaha Wild Adventure shows that they shoot with a tranquilizer d...

What the feck?

Has anyone else noticed a serious upswing in the number of porn myspaces springing up lately? They're friggin' everywhere! And apparently they all want to be my friend. Porn myspaces, plea...

Guys...

Men of myspace, as a public service, I think it's important that we all agree... everybody should keep their GODDAMN SHIRT ON. Seriously, unless these are pictures on a beach, there is no reason...

Seriously...

Enough with the chain-letter style bulletins, people. Honestly. I don't even have the energy to describe how fucking stupid they sound. And please don't be dumb enough to repost them...

Magic Number...

I'm not sure I want to add any more friends on myspace, for the simple fact that I currently have 69, the magic number. And there's no number that really recaptures that magic... I guess 6,969, ...

ribbons

Just a couple of quick thoughts... I'm really tired of people putting magnetic shit on their cars. Specifically, I'm sick of the "Support Our Troops" sticker things. They can't see them an...
