My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Music:

I like most kinds of music ... it makes me smile ... even if to laugh at how depressing some of it can be.
You are "FINS"! You are the object of
everyone's affection and the center of
attention, aka the only bait in town. You're
always lookin for some peace and
quiet...anywhere but Cincinatti. Other songs
that relate to you: Lady I Can't Explain,
Woman Goin Crazy on Caroline Street, Treat
Her Like a Lady

Which Jimmy Buffett song are you?

Movies:

I will go to an ocassional movie ... more during the Oscar season ... but I subscribe to NetFlix so that's how I see most of my movies.

Television:

Don't watch it. I don't have service ... I have started watching Nip/Tuck and Battlestar Galatica. I still love Boston Legal and American Idol. In fact, I love all award shows ... LOL!!

Heroes:

Anyone living their dream ...
