No, never convicted.

About Me

I'm the type of person who likes to snuggle up in a warm afghan on a rainy day, sip a mug of nice warm cocoa, and pop in a feel good comedy into the VCR. Maybe something like "My Best Friend's Wedding" or "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" or "Four Weddings and a Funeral"...just anything with weddings!...GOD I LOVE WEDDINGS!!!...no, no wait...actually I prefer a bar, my friends, and a pitcher of Red Hook.

My Interests

Beer, The Simpsons, the works of Kevin Smith, good uses of sarcasim and irony, Dodgers baseball, Lakers basketball (free Kobe!), improving my bass guitar skills (god I suck), finding the equilibrium between screwing around at work and still looking like I'm busy, the five second rule, and trying to find a way to become successful before my high school reunion.

I'd like to meet:

If you're the type of person who can't remember their sibling's birthdays, their own Social Security Number, if they left the stove on, when garbage day is, where they left their keys, or their ATM Pin number...but, you can remember every line from "Clerks", you know the name of the bar on "Three's Company", and you know that Lawrence Fishburn played Cowboy Curtis on Pee Wee's Playhouse, then brutha, I gots to party with you. Bonus if you also get distracted by shiny objects!
