Dives Without Looking

Be all heart, or don't be at all.

About Me

I consider myself an old fashioned gentelman, a kind of knight in shining armor for any and all who need it. Honor and ethics rule alot of my actions...along with a thick layer oy silliness and fun-loving. ^_^ I am in love with acting, am remarkably shy when it comes to pretty girls or girls I like, and I will always go out of my way for the people I care about (friends, family, whatever). I'm a big dork (lots of books, video games, cartoons, anime, comics, etc.), but I love it anyway. Just a big, lovable, goofy dork.

My Interests


Interests? Hmmm... well, there's my friends, food, theater, literature (mostly the classics, Shakespear, and non-fiction), anime, games, comics, and just whatever's fun. I'm also big on art, I sculpt, paint, and draw. I can't think of anything else offhand. Just ask, and I'll tell you.

CREATE YOUR OWN! - or - GET PAID TO TAKE SURVEYS!

I'd like to meet:

Friendly, interesting, cultured, opinionated, fun or silly people. Anyone and everyone is welcome to talk to and have fun with me. Oh, and people who share my interests. ^_^

Music:

Music helps me think and relax. Mandatory I say! ^_^ I can listen to most anything, EXEPT all that pre-fabricated pop garbage (you all can take you N'Street Boys, Christina Spears, and whatever nonsense you've got and stick it in a canon aimed square at your knees), and R&B/Rap (Most of it is blach blah blah hoes, or blah blah blah blah money/drugs, and blah blah blah violence in some form or another). Mostly though, I listen to rock, jazz, and techno. Foreign or not, that's my poison of choice.

Movies:

I used work at a Regal movie theater, so I've seen and go see lots of movies, good or bad (time to kill, you know?), though I try to avoid horror and neeldess violence. I am a sucker for romance, though, so movies like that always strike my fancy. Favorites...hmmm, well right now my favorites are Cowboy Bebop: The Movie, the new Willy Wonka, Corpse Bride, Romeo+Juliet, and Pirates of the Caribean.

Television:

I like watching the Discovery Channel, History Channel, and Comedy Central. Being a kid at heart, I also watch alot of Cartoonnetwork. No real one particular favorite. My dvd and game collection's pretty big, so TV's usually not gone to too much, however.

Books:

I read mostly mangas ands classics. Otherwise, anything that seems interesting is up for a try.

Heroes:

I don't have many heroes, realy. Not that many people who struck me as awsome, but the few who did are Mohatma Gandhi, Bruce Lee, and Buddha. Otherwise, I look up to several real life people. Ben, Al, Josh, Greg, and Nate. You guys give me standards to better myself, and I look up to you guys... and Jet Black. Yeah, he's not real. I don't care. He's still a good role model. Thank you.
