*Crazysexycool people *If you happen to be one of the authors I have listed in my "Books" section, then yes, there is a very, very, good possibility I will sleep with you (sharp intellect usually supercedes a pretty face for me with the exception of David Beckham- very dumb but extremely hot. I'm still bitter that he married a woman that resembles E.T.). *People who can laugh at themselves; if you can't laugh at yourself, you should not be laughing at other people *People who make origami boulders *Very talented plastic surgeons to keep me in Dorian Gray mode *People that can tell which parts of this profile is BS and more importantly, which parts aren't *People who know how to live in the moment - it's the true key to happiness *People know HOW and WHEN to wink at someone- it's really a lost art...*People who have something to teach me *Individuals who have a bit of Indiana Jones in them; snatching the golden idol from the altar, knowing full well the consequences, relishing the challenge as much as the rewards- risk averse individuals need not introduce themselves; you will bore me, and my time is FAR MORE valuable than yours, I can assure you.
Other people (ficticious/alive/ or dead) that I'd love to have dinner and engaging conversation with: *MLK, *HOWARD ROARK (marry me!) *Captain Jack Sparrow *Henry Kissinger *Chuck Jones, Walt Disney, John Lassiter (okay that's 3 people at once, but there's so much to ask them...) *Dr. Christian Troy *The Barcardi & Cola guys *Borat from Khazakstan TV *Dethklok *Tolken *Tourists with shallow pockets and a deep wad of cash (I graduated Summa from the School of the Seven Bells in Bogota, Columbia -think "Harvard" for pickpockets- I'm currently contemplating graduate studies) *The AFLAC Duck *The 3 Bills: O'Reilly, Wattenberg & Bill the Cat (RIP Bloom County) *The Armstrong & Getty boys- the most hilarious Libertarians on talk radio *Gary Larson *Chaucer *Praga Khan and the rest of the Lords of Acid crew *Empress Josephine, and *Imperia- the greatest courtesan of Renaissance Rome *Arjumand Banu Begum, aka Mumtaz Mahal - the woman that the Taj Majal was built for... a woman that had the emperor so spellbound that he constructed the ultimate monument of love in her honor? I want to be THAT woman.
I AM NOT EVEN REMOTELY INTERESTED IN SLEEPING WITH: 9/11 conspiracy theorists (The Michael Moore Liberal Contingency - you people make my blood boil) *Uninformed hippies that constantly protest whatever lame cause du jour in the middle of the day because they have NO BLOODY JOB *LITTLE men who carry Trojan MAGNUM condoms (liars!) *Democrats and Republicans who have no concept of fiscal accountability (which is....ummmm pretty much all of them) *And finally, people who act like they are from the "hood". If you think that ending words with a "Z" is even slightly cool (ie, "players" like "playaz"), do the world a favor; get yourself neutered or spayed.
