I'd like to meet:
A devil, a saint, and a hetero life mate. I am the seventh son. I have skydived into Uraguay wearing relief supplies for a besieged village on my back. I am a lover, but I have fought for glass beads and the honor of a woman in an desert oasis. I told Kenny Rogers to fuck off and mind his own business. During the grunge craze, I didn't wear plaid.
I was briefly the dictator of a small archipelago -- I ruled fairly and won the hearts of my people. I have the sexual appetite of a rock star. Richard Stallman has slept on my couch. I appreciate beauty in all things. Critics acclaimed the modern sculpture I welded, to help a deaf friend see the beauty of sound. I am a classicaly trained chef, a revolutionary thinker, and a merciless advesary. I am not sterile despite the convenience.
Every 3rd Sunday I translate classic works into Braille. I invented a new filtration process for bourbon whisky, but didn't patent it. I recognize the complex beauty of Perl. On a lark I competed in the Iditarod, and won the respect of an Inuit village. When recognized, I sign autographs.
I once defeated a corrupt bureaucracy using only my wits, and a metal yo-yo. My work on genetic mutation, in the evolution of the flying squirrel, was considered ground breaking. I am a convincing liar, yet I always tell the truth. I regularly bowl 300, and my "sweeping" has earned me international fame in curling circles. I have nothing to hide.
I have set trends, and bucked the system. Since Johnny Cash died, I have worn black. I can recite Pi to 7,572 digits, and I have discovered the meaning of life. I try to move like I have a purpose. Oh, and my nipples taste like Skittles (not the green ones, fuck those).
Interests:
Human Nature, and those parts of it which either conflict with, or adheres to the natural order.
Music:
You've gotta love the Blues. If you don't, then I suspect you might not have a soul, like the Mormons.
John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters, Buddy Guy, Charlie Musslewhite, Eric Clapton, T-Model Ford, Bugs Henderson, Walter Trout, Van Morrison.
Movies:
There was a time when I had a great love for movies. I don't watch many anymore. It's really a time thing. I just don't find I have the time for it. You know those things are like 2 hours long. So get off my back already. What are you the fucking movie police? I still like movies, I just don't take hours out of my day to watch them. Look I have other things to do on the weekends too. It's my God damn life and I don't have to watch movies if I don't want to. That settles it, now back the fuck off!
Heat (Pacino, and Deniro together for the first time since The Godfather, why in the hell didn't this do better at the box office?), American Beauty, Clockwork Orange (Did you know they made a porn called Clockwork Orgy?), SLC Punk (SLC hasn't changed that much since then), Clerks, Bringing out the dead, Fight Club, Aliens 2, Godfather 1 through 3, Patton, Ghost in the Shell, Dune, Boondock Saints, Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Amadeus, Tigerland, Pushing Tin, Pulp Fiction, Grosse Pointe Blank, Man on Fire, The Ghost and The Darkness, Matrix, Life as a House, Tombstone, Unforgiven, Braveheart, Ransom, Payback, Romeo & Juliet, Army of Darkness, Taxi Driver, The Last Boyscout, Last Man Standing, Full Metal Jacket.
Books:
I love books. There is still more knowledge to be gained from books than all of the media to come since.

Quote:
"Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe simply because it has been handed down for many generations. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumoured by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is written in Holy Scriptures. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of Teachers, elders or wise men.
Believe only after careful observation and analysis, when you find that it agress with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all. Then accept it and live up to it."
-- The Buddha
