About Me

I have a list of things I'd like to accomplish before I die. One of the items on it is to be a Flying Elvis.

I collect original artwork by Joseph Michael Linsner.

I am both a Published Poet and a Frustrated Novelist.

I write in simple, declarative sentences.

I am a Freemason.

I have an IQ measured at over 140.

I am a talented, if untrained, cook.

I believe in subtle, theme-based humor.

My Interests

Swing & tango dancing
Good movies
Good books
Good food! (both cooking it & eating it)
Felix The Cat
Airships & Zeppelins
Kingdom of Loathing

I'd like to meet:

The woman I'm looking for should be...

...Intelligent, and a former Miss America.
She should be an Ambassador to some Third World country and an operatic alto.
She should be a Fredrick's of Hollywood lingerie model who was raised by nuns in a convent until the age of 16.
She should be the stuff of which urban legends are made.
She should be nine feet tall and wear size 4 shoes.
She should kiss softly, and have uncontainable giggles.
She should be the Lenny Bruce of medicine, and the Louis Pasteur of comedy.
She should have red hair, or blonde or brunette, in no particular order.
She should stomp the terra but leave no tracks.
If I throw her the idol, she must throw me the whip.
She should have a foolproof bullshit detector & no compunctions about using it.
