I'd like to meet people who like the stuff I like, as I'm not a big believer in the opposite attracts theory. While I know it exists because my parents were living proof of it, I think people spend way too much time focused in upon their differences.
I want to share what I'm passionate about: Music, Sci-Fi, Comedy, Food and MLB.
Life is far too short not to experience all you can within the confines of this world. It's far too beautiful to put limitations upon yourself.
I want to make new friends, and if that special someone comes along, so be it!
If you want to be friends, send me a message first and let me know why by introducing yourself!

Well, I personally haven't watched TV in my own home in 2.5 years. I got rid of cable for cost reasons, but haven't hooked-up an antenna for regular TV viewing yet, either. I utilize my TV for playing DVD - movies and TV series.
Some current shows I enjoy are: Heroes, Smallville, One Tree Hill, Supernatural, The Simpsons, South Park and Stargate SG-1. Past shows include: La Femme Nikita, The Pretender, any Star Trek series, Angel, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The Flash, Farscape, In Living Color, Roar, The Black Donnelly's, Dawson's Creek, Mutant X and Highlander.
Mostly Sci-Fi & Fantasy stuff, but I also enjoy biographies and books on art.
Firefighters, paramedics, police and members of our armed forces. Saving and defending lives is their job and for those ready to give their life in the line of duty, we should all be grateful.
