About Me

Boy, what to say? I'm Ross, a native Washingtonian still living in and around DC. I enjoy living life to the fullest, being challenged, trying new things, traveling, Beach coming, dancing, Rock Concerts, and learning new things. I come from a military family (Go Army!) and was "Married" to the Navy for 3 years, but am pretty liberal in my beliefs. Did I mention I love concerts and to dance? :-) I like to party, but don't let it dominate my life. I was the president of RPM, the Balto-DC chapter of DanceSafe, and am now the president of my Fraternity's local alumni club, the National Capital Chi Phi Club (www.dav-mar.com/nccpc) . I and my BF Gregg have been happily together for 3 years now. I love humor, and can be a bit silly. I think my friends would be better at describing me than I am! :-) Visit www.Dav-Mar.com/eratork ) for more info about me and other cool stuff!

My Interests

Computers and networking, music, the beach, travelling, hanging with friends, Chi Phi, concerts, dancing, music, swimming, cycling, working out, sailing, Sci Fi, and just generally being silly!

I'd like to meet:

Cool, interesting peeps I guess. HONEST people that don't have much attitude or drama, but a great love for life. Open mindedness a must, with a good sense of humor too! Also, I would love to find people who enjoy cycling, and rock concerts. Anyone who is a fellow brother of Chi Phi and shares my ideals is also a must meet. If you are cute that is a plus but by no means neccessary .. some of the cutest people I know are cute on the inside! There is that eye candy thing, but if I'm am BAD at trying to meet someone just cause I am looking for an excuse to look at them, so I quit trying abut a year ago ... yeah, old habbits die hard! Talking about hard ... ;-)

Music:

Too many bands to list but mainly rock, alternative, goth-industrial, as well as progressive house/trance, dance, and a little DnB. Some names that stand out are Nine Inch Nails (TRENT REZNOR IS GOD!) , Marilyn Manson, Blink 182, Luck Boy's Confusion, Ballyhoo!, Blue October, Less Than Jake, Simple Plan, Disturbed, Three Day's Grace, Breaking Benjamin, Staind, Tool, TKK, KMFDM, Tori Amos, Dave Matthews, Erasure, Depechew Mode, BT, Petshop Boys, Linkin Park, Fall Out Boy, Green Day, Good Charlotte, Propeller Heads ... as I said, too many to list! Visit my website, www.Dav-Mar.com/music if ya want to know more.

Movies:

To name a few: Seven, Any of the Lampoons, Airplane, Starwars, LOTG, Transformes, Chronicles of Narnia,and the Simpsons!.

Television:

I don't watch TV that much as I prefer to be DOING something not watching it (well ... ) but when around I like to watch House, The Office, Simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad, Balltestar Galactica (LOVE IT!!!), and I can't live without at least a minor dose of the news, LOL.

Books:
