I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

i have a plant named steve and I like to wear flip-flops.

My Interests

the color blue, the number 5, alaska, pie, fishing, cliches, lawn chairs, sci-fi, sarcasm, and i have a thing for the super nanny. my dislikes: i have an aversion toward the scent of lavender and it's bothersome when people end sentences with prepositions.

I'd like to meet:

a communist... for real. i think it would be fascinating.

Movies:

not so much. it's a height thing. and i always find myself behind a "big headed" person. seating is critical, so that sort of precludes me from going to see them.

Television:

the simpsons are very important to me. very.

Books:

i find that keeping a visible bookshelf exudes the appearance of great intelligence. so, yes, it's a facade. but it's a good one.

Heroes:

people who overuse cliches and largely unecessary words. and sarcasm. that's very important, too.

My Blog

Rise of the "man-bag"

Here's the print of the story I saw last night on ABC news.  They did a story on the rise of the "man-bag" or the "man purse" as I prefer.  Given our personal love of the man-bag, I thought ...
