THINGS I LIKE: Writing, traveling and some day I will hopefully be able to write and then travel about it (haha) Skiing, scuba diving, things that get me out of the city or out of the country, otherwise I like my house. I like jumping into and off of things. Tigers. Computers. Music. Watching people and trying to figure out at what point humanity will intellectually collapse in on itself. Trying to figure out why the majority of the people the majority of the time do STUPID SHIT!! I think there has been a breakdown in society in general, people in that "LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME" mode all the time, really gets annoying. This whole "spikey-half-mohawk-half-bedhead- bullshit-pretty-boy-hipster haircut" CRAP has GOT to GO... I think its the new mullet (which made a short come back)and people are going to look back at pictures and think to themselves "man I sure did look like a douche bag". My attire and fashion sense aren't typically inline with the hip crowd, but I know what does and doesn't look retarded. I like to Laugh. I think everyone should laugh more. I want everyone to do this. 1.Start laughing...force yourself..... 2.LAUGH UNCONTROLLABLEY.... 3.Laugh until the laughter takes over. -----I think I am the funniest person that I know, I'm sure there are plenty of people that don't think that but I really don't fuckin care.
Pilgrim women wearing leather corsets that love James Coburn and do volunteer work helping others. The volunteering is part of what helps them to move forward and become a better person which ultimately puts them in a place to positively influence the world around them. I love learning new things. I love being taught and I love to teach, so I'd like to meet anyone that has a desire to share knowledge and ideas (sharing is a two way street). I love discussing religion and politics, so anyone who might want to have light discussion regarding those topics. People that are open, honest and tolerant, also lovers of music and people that like to laugh. MAKE ME LAUGH.
Good. You know your music. You should be able to

Do You Know Your Music (Sorry MTV Generation I Doubt You Can Handle This One)
Quizilla
I love music in the studio or live. I love everything from a street corner musician to the LSO, but to narrow it down to a few I will go with jazz, funk, jazz-funk fusion, indie rock (in its many forms), classic rock, classical, punk, and 80's. I know what I like and I know what I hate. I have over 270 Gigs of music but I might have a few doubles. There is roughly 65,000 tracks on my computer and I still have a part of my collection to rip. I get by with a little help from my friends. My tastes are...eclectic? Yea sure they are, but I like it all except (and I shake my head saying this cliché) except Rap/ Hip Hop and Country.

Indiana Jones, Rick Steves, Bill Bixby and this guy I met in Scotland. I was traveling and all my friends were so excited and vicariously living through me, but then I met this guy and he was traveling, but was not just seeing sites, he eventually made his way to Nepal and did volunteer work building hospitals in the mountains for the native people. Wow! And finally Atheists Christians.
