I'd like to meet:

Right now i'm enjoying being in this amazing city. Love having fun people to enjoy that with. Rooftop bars after work make me happy, some days a cheap beer some days a dry martini.

Music:

My faves right now UB40, Rascal Flatts, Susan Tedeschi, George Winston. I always enjoy a good song no matter who it is by or what genre and I love concerts. But I try to avoid Michael Bolton and Kenny G. .. width="425" height="350" ....

Movies:

Boondock Saints, Love Actually, Eternal Sunshine, Serendipity, Mallrats, The Jerk, Office Space, Better Off Dead

Television:

I must admit, I love the boob tube. Big fan of it. Even if I'm not watching it, it's on for background noise. That's how I grew up. Rescue Me, Law & Order, The Office, Mad About You, Snapped, Scrubs and yes, I still like the real world/road rules challenges-drama and action!

Books:

Anything Hemingway. Right now I'm reading "I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell"

Heroes:

What did the zen master say to the hot dog vendor?

Make me one with everything. This is what the subway voice said right after the friendly reminder that riding on the outside of subway cars is illegal and dangerous.
