I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Does anyone really care? In lieu of some phony baloney, I shall quote George "Hannibal" Peppard: "I love it when a plan comes together".

My Interests

I believe I'm in a bit of a transitional phase right now, so bear with me as I attempt to figure this sort of thing out. But, to whet your appetite.......surviving, breathing, accomplishing, my friends, excessive gossiping about my friends, forward movement, positivism, rose-colored glasses, pretty girls, dives where I can actually hear you speak and a gumball after every meal.

I'd like to meet:

Are you an old friend who is cyber-stalking me? Excellent! Write me an e-mail, I'd love to hear from you. The harassment of strangers is also welcome.

Music:

I'm supposed to laundry list here, right? Okay, imagine I've catalogued a lengthy slate consisting of number of hip bands you've heard of, one or two that you may have not, something old or rootsy to add credibility, and a real stunner that's facetiously ironic. Seriously, I'm a lot less pretentious then I used to be. I like everything....everything but Reggae.

Movies:



Television:

I don't watch television.....I flip through television. When I do stop, there is an enormous dichotomy between the two things I'll scrutinize. The first is the highbrow stuff.....Nova, National Geographic, Frontline, The Discovery Channel. The second is significantly more moronic.....Elimadate, Cheaters, Cheap Seats, Skin-a-Max, those VH1 "Fundit" shows.

Books:

"I'll never forget the day I read a book. It was contagious. Seventy pages. There were pictures here and there, so it wasn't hard to bear, the day ... I read a book".

Heroes:

One Mans Trash is Another Mans...........

  I like Greenpoint, I honestly do.  I pay each month's rent in peanuts, have a commute shorter than many Manhattan folk, and am surrounded by all my friends (I've contemplated petitioning...

Still Even More Random Thoughts

To quote Vin Scully, "Hi again everybody, and a very pleasant good evening to you wherever you may be." I've been sickened for some time now by Fox, and turbulence nears. What be the source of my dist...

Even More Random Thoughts

It just occurred to me that two days ago was the one year anniversary of my move to New York City, the home of the really crappy picante sauce (much to my chagrin, in that time I've been unable to loc...
