Comedy and music are important, but so is art (my current favs are Ryan McGinness, Will Cotton and David Shrigley), food, movies, and going to parties. I also like competitive trivia game playing with friends and I like to win.
Someone who is smart and creative, but not crazy, and at one time may have had a mohawk (like I did). Athletic in a skateboarding, snowboarding, surfboarding kind of way. Someone who I would never describe as a douche bag and has NEVER been into a jam band in their lives...because seriously, I will set your hacky sac on fire!

Right now I’m rediscovering my old Misfits collection, my Dischord box set, and Jay-Z's Black & Gray Albums. I also have a soft spot for old Dolly Parton, Loretta Lynn and Patsy Cline. My only music rule…NO JAM BANDS. I hate that hippie bullshit.
