Fruit Loops are light and reasonably high in fiber...I care for Apple Jacks a great deal...

About Me

What's to tell? To know me is to love me, or totally hate me. Don't worry, I did it like that on purpose to make it that way. Animal Lover, Not Hunter. Nite Owl. Movie Quoter. Life Saver. Domestic Traveler. Lens Wearer. Practical Joker. Comic Relief. Student. Student? Future Michigan State Spartan? Perhaps... I can't stand loud eaters (i.e. smackers, tooth suckers, slurpers, saying "ahhhhhhhhhh" as loud as you can after drinking something, etc.), people that feel the need to raise their middle finger to a camera are retards, I do not trust people that smoke and don't drink, I believe that some Lifetime movies are good & not all "chick flicks" are bad. My dream was to be a cast member on Saturday Night Live. I've given up that dream and am focused on something else. I've been told that I somehow missed my calling, but it may very well be too late to start in on stand-up comedy as well. I may be funny, maybe even rEally funny to some, but honestly who's keeping track?

My Interests

Drinking black coffee while eating mozz sticks and talking about animal rights, stand up comedy, sports, travel, photography, history, medicine... oh and MUSIC

I'd like to meet:

Joss Stone, Allison Goldfrapp, Will Gregory, Dick Valentine, Thom Yorke, The genius behind 88.9 Radio Milwaukee, the man that invented the short bus, Gnarls Barkley, Jimbo Mathis, Katherine Whalen, Lacey Chabert, Rachael Nichols, Broken Lizard, Einstein, Truman, Franklin, girls with personality, girls that wear glasses, girls that have a British accent and say "wicked" and "bollocks" and call anything they like "ACE!" as in "The music on your profile is ace!", people who know the difference between "there-they're-their" "your and you're" know when to say good/well (example: "I think we did really good."/ It's "I think we did really well.") and know that "a lot" really is TWO WORDS-NOT ONE, and finally the dog from the old Taco Bell commercials...

Music:

I'm a little eclectic when it comes to music. I have had some great philosophical conversations on music. Whatever it is that you like, you're right...there is no wrong answer. As for me -- JOSS STONE, Goldfrapp, Basement Jaxx, Spoon, Squirrel Nut Zippers, Electric Six, Lenny Kravitz, Rage Against The Machine, Simply Red, Lily Allen, Erikah Badu, Bjork, St. Germaine, Gnarls Barkley, Foo Fighters, Oakenfold, Kanye West, James Brown, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Van Morison, Wilco, Fleetwood Mac, Steely Dan, Harry Connick, Keane, Modest Mouse, Mint Royale, Radiohead, The Postal Service, The Ramones, Sneaker Pimps, Koop, Thievery Corporation, Telepopmusik, G Love and Special Sauce...ok sorry,I'm done...

Movies:

Bringing Out The Dead, Pulp Fiction, Swingers, Super Troopers, Beerfest, The Ice Storm, Sideways, Old School, Home For The Holidays, So I Married An Axe Murderer, The Burbs, The Money Pit, Caddyshack, Major League, Bull Durham, Brewster's Millions, Wedding Crashers, Anchorman, BORAT, The Holiday, Seems Like Old Times, Spies Like Us, Trading Places, Full Metal Jacket, Apocalypse Now, What About Bob?, King Pin, a lot of Indie flicks that I'm sure most people have never heard of...

Television:

T.V. pretty much sucks...Entourage, Mad Men, The Office, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, West Wing, Law and Order: SVU, news magazine shows like 20/20, History and Discovery channels, and sports. That's basically all I can tolerate, which is about once a week. I'm sorry John, I'm not sorry - I could give less than a shit about an American Idol, some tool who thinks he can dance, an asshole who thinks he is a chef that screams at people, or a bunch of red neck, toothless, heartless, dickless, hopeless hill billy slap nuts who "swap wives". What a bunch of shit...

Books:

Textbooks.

Heroes:

Dave and Amany...Dave for not coming unglued over the last few years. Amany for helping me get thru some very tough times and for sharing some of the best times I've ever had, and for both of them for having the appreciation and understanding of what it means to be a true friend; Robin Yount; my Dad for instilling an awesome work ethic in me.

"That's a sporty necklace you have there Aunt Glady,you make that yourself?"
