About Me

My friend Nichole in Pittsburg once said, "Mike, I love you but you are an acquired taste." I'm not going to dispute that assessment. When I was a little kid, they all said I was a young Billy Dee Williams in the making. I don't know what happened. Originally from New Jersey. Listen mostly to jazz but can deal with anything that took any talent to create. I have nothing but contempt for pop culture. Britney Spears is a no talented idiot and as you all know by now I am not the father of Anna Nicole's baby. Any movie with Denzel Washington, Clint Eastwood, Morgan Freeman, or Harrison Ford is a good one call me I'll go. I have no aspirations of being a male model. Therefore, you will rarely see me looking like something out of a catalog or taking pictures of myself half naked to show everyone. There are, however, other ways to accomplish that. I'm perpetually out of style which I see as a good thing b/c as far as I'm concerned, everything in style sucks. Jim Brown is the alpha male of life. I like all sports including racing and soccer. And in case you want to make fun of me more, I watch the Young and the Restless and think that Prince is a musical genius. Any questions, message or call my agent who just so happens to be me.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Famous: Jim Brown, Reggie Jackson, Clint Eastwood, Carl Lewis, Barrack Obama, Bruce Campbell, Helio Castronevas, Branford Marsalis. I have met his brother. Good stuff.

Music:

Jazz, Soul, HipHop, R&B, and just about anyone who was jammin in the 60's. Wynton Marsalis. For those who just don't know, that is to the tune of 8 grammys and a pulitzer. Herbie Hancock, Bill Withers, Sam Cooke, Redman, Common, Jill Scott, Alicia Keys Earth Wind and Fire. Basically people with actual musical talent. I will listen to good rock and roll as well: Hendrix, Dylan, Led Zeppelin...etc. etc.

Movies:

Anything with Rudy Ray Moore(Dolemite), City of God, Training Day, Coming to America, Army of Darkness, Uptown Saturday Night/Let's Do it Again, Hunt for Red October/Patriot Games, Kill Bill, Heartbreak Ridge. Clint Eastwood is the gold standard of the film industry. Mo' Better Blues is my favorite movie ever. If you are a female, like jazz, and like this movie... Call me NOW!!!

Television:

ESPN: sports programs or highlight shows. And no, poker is not a sport. 24 Jack Bauer is a badass, and yes I still watch pro wrestling. I know that it's not real, but neither is anything else on TV. Oh yeah, Victor Newman is my hero. I do watch the young and the restless. However, my masculinity remains in tact.

Books:

Biographies and non-fiction. Catch 22 is great.

Heroes:

As I get older, I've come to realize that my Pops may have been cooler than Miles Davis. And I mean that.
