My Interests

Playing guitar, working out, spending time with my family and friends. I do a lot of running, and I'm hoping to do the NYC Marathon one of these years (just did a 1/2 marathon, it was awesome...endorphins!!!) And, I have the two best dogs in the world, so I spend as much time with them as possible. . .

I'd like to meet:

Decent people, harder to find every day. I'm a nice guy, here's proof:

How evil are you?

This is interesting. . .

You Are a Hunter Soul
You are driven and ambitious - totally self motiviated to succeed
Actively working to acheive what you want, you are skillful in many areas.
You are a natural predator with strong instincts ... and more than a little demanding.
You are creative, energetic, and an extremely powerful force.

An outdoors person, you like animals and relate to them better than people.
You tend to have an explosive personality, but also a good sense of humor.
People sometimes see you as arrogant or a know it all.
You tend to be a bit of a loner, though you hate to be alone.

Souls you are most compatible with: Seeker Soul and Peacemaker Soul What Kind of Soul Are You?Basically, just looking for the perfect woman to share my life with. Not too tall an order, right? Other than that, cool people who can hold a coherent conversation, and aren't so self absorbed that they can't see beyond their own existence

Your Linguistic Profile:

55% General American English
35% Yankee
10% Dixie
0% Midwestern
0% Upper Midwestern What Kind of American English Do You Speak?
Kind of interesting, I suppose.

Music:

Led Zeppelin, J.S. Bach, Depeche Mode, DLR era Van Halen (RAWK!), The Who, Slayer, Ozzy Osbourne, old Aerosmith, Ratt, jeez, too many others to name.

Movies:

Far, far too many to name. I don't have a specific genre I like most- if it's a good movie, I'll dig it. The Casino Royale is HIGHLY recommended!

Television:

Other than occassionally watching the History Channel, the Military Channel, ESPN, or the NFL Network, the only show I really follow is The Shield. Usually I have too much other stuff to do.

Books:

Currently reading "American Soldier" by Tommy Franks, just read "How to Live With a Neurotic Dog" (very funny!). I feel the same about books as I do about movies- I'm not stuck on a particular genre. Good writing is good writing, and I can appreciate it even if I'm not into the subject.

Heroes:

Pat Tillman, Andy McNab, Scott Helvenston, William Wallace; if you don't know who they are, ask me, I'll be happy to tell you.

My Blog

Elegy, and regret

It's been quite some time since I posted a blog. It's not something I'm truly in the habit of doing- perhaps I'm a bit to private, or I tend to doubt that anyone could possibly have any interest...
