About Me

I've suffered some pretty substantial culture shock coming from Reno to Central Florida. I feel like a stranger in a strange land.
I am--first and foremost--a thinker. I can usually spot a line of BS a mile away, but I often won't point it out to anyone unless I really care. I'm adept at seeing the humor in most situations, no matter what the context, and that's probably the quality that helps me keep my sanity the most...
My primary value is integrity. My goal in life is to arise every morning and respect the person I see in the mirror, so I base all of my decisions, large and small, on that goal.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Intellectuals with common sense (remember that paper will hold still while you write anything on it!), anybody with a great sense of humor, and die-hard Geddy Lee fans. If you're all three, maybe I died and went to heaven.
