I love the arts; I studied theatre and enjoy going to all types of shows. Music is, however, my biggest passion.Movies and books are also passtimes of mine, as well as a fascination with yoga and the martial arts, though it has been a LONG time since I've done either.I like new things, which I have a bit of a lack of right now in life. I like old things which I had forgotten I was a fan of. I like the Transformers, and if you don't...well, you are missing out.History, politics and philosophy are all very interesting to me, though I am woefully under-read in all of the above. I'm politically opinionated and stubborn at times, which can lead to long-winded speeches and very one-sided discussions. I apologise in advance to those of you who know me.Hmmm, what else...I enjoy having a beer and watching hockey, having a drink and chatting and laughing with friends, going out for a nice dinner and splitting a bottle of wine. As Winston Churchill said, "I have taken more from liquor than it has taken from me."Finally, I'm interested in being amazed, so if you've got a good one, send it my way.I am interested in laughing as much as I can.
