I am here for Dating, Serious Relationships and Friends

About Me

I'm a fairly straightforward individual. I don't expect much out of people besides courtesy, respect, and honesty, and I strive to reciprocate in kind.

I don't look for much out of life besides happiness, but I don't expect it in every breathing moment.

I consider myself wise and even occasionally heed my own advice.

I'm spiritual but not religious. I can find beauty in any moment...

My sense of humor was scarred by a cheezy joke-book at the age of 5. It's never been the same since! I love a good pun or play of words, sarcasm while keeping it friendly. I can always make myself laugh, and sometimes even other people! :P

My Interests

Reading, music, movies, computers, coffee, games, being social, staying in.

I'd like to meet:

Real people who look at other things besides themselves.

Music:

Goth/Industrial: Skinny Puppy, NIN, Frontline Assembly, VNV Nation, Switchblade Symphony, KMFDM, Ministry, Front 242, Laether Strip, Wumpscut, Peter Murphy
Metal: Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax, Tool, Korn, Staind, Black Sabbath
Trip-Hop: Silverman, Sneaker Pimps, Artefact, Hungry Lucy, Getaway Cruiser, Tricky, Morcheeba, Portishead, Sweetie
New Age, World, Folk, Rock: Dead Can Dance, Lorena McKennett, This Mortal Coil, Peter Gabriel, Sting, Enigma, Enya, Shielah Nichols,
Classical: Motzart, Bach, Beethoven, Liszt, Orff, Gregorian Chant... Anything dark, dissonant and powerful
Older Stuff: Styx, The Police, Duran Duran, Johnny Cash

Movies:

Sci-Fi: From blockbusters to cheese
Action: What can I say, I like a good "Guy film"
Anime: Ghost in the Shell (1 and 2), Akira, Ninja Scroll, Hack.Sign (the original)... Usually something with a good story as well as animation
Comedy: Monty Python, Mel Brooks, intelligent parody, anything quotable
Drama: must have a good story to capture my interest. My all time favorite movie is A River Runs Through It

Television:

I'm not a fan of television. If I do actually watch anything it's probably on TLC, Sci-Fi Channel, Comedy Central, or the Cartoon Network, but you'll almost never see me seek out television to pass the time.

Books:

David Weber, John Ringo, William Gibson, Neil Gaiman, Robert Jordan (when he's not writing terrible recap books), Timothy Zahn, David Eddings, George R.R. Martin, Stephen King (only novels tied into the gunslinger series), Tad Williams Otherland, Anne Rice, Douglas Adams

Heroes:

Phazy! Phazy! Phazy!
