I am here for Dating, Serious Relationships, Friends and Networking

About Me

I’m some skinny lean, wavy haired, Irish mutt who moved from Rochester MN up to the Twin Cities (or as I like to call it “The Leviathan”). I'm extremely open, so be warned that I'm liable to talk about anything. Penises, boobies, religion, drugs, alcohol, and the Watergate scandal are all fair game. Not once, but twice I’ve cheated death, so surely I must be here to serve some sort of purpose. I enjoy the occasional gamble or two in which I know I have an edge over the house/opponent. It is thus that I refer to it as a gambling solution. I don't do drugs per se, but I have been known to find myself in the middle of a hot boxing scenario catered by friends. I'm a new initiate of the Kappa Sigma fraternity here at the U of M. FYI for the unfamiliar, K Sig is in my honest opinion the classiest group of fellas on campus so don't be put off by the frat label. I'm generally a type-B personality, but when I commit myself I can be competitive to a fault. According to a Myers-Briggs test I’m an ENTJ, Extraverted Intuitive Thinker Judging or aka: “Strategist Mobilizer.” I'm basically one of the many people that were raised by television and now I've become aware that time is fleeting and I must make the most of it while I still can. I finished batting out my gen. eds at community college and began attending the University of Minnesota Twin Cities this fall. The ultimate goal is to go to grad school and hopefully obtain a high paying job overseas in a country not hindered by Conservatives. With each passing day I'm becoming increasingly certain it's possible to create your own luck through optimism. **Please message me before sending a friend request, thx**

People often say I look like Jack White. I usually interpret that as meaning I need a tan.


Could be worse I guess... I'd rather look like Jack White than Jack Black.

Here's a Malayan Pangolin.

My Interests

Sports betting, on the NFL in particular. Breaking News: The Federal Government declares online sports betting illegal. As John Stewart would say, "I am chagrined and bewildered!" Playing poker. Writing about nonsense. Excessive weight lifting. Movies & Music, no surprise there XBox 360 **although, nowadays I only play online when I'm drunk and boy lemme tell ya it's a whole helluva lot more fun that way** (Live gamertag: Wicked Fury). Tweaking my crappy fantasy football team. Eventually joining the U of M Judo club. I'll be getting my ass handed to me, but hey.. that's okay. I guess it's for that reason I'd prefer to build myself a stronger body so as to combat the damage that is to be inflicted in due time. Carefully examining ways to better myself, and ultimately failing to follow through. Oh yeah, I'm not ashamed in the least respect to say that I am a strong advocate of Cuddling while watching movies. :-)

I'd like to meet:

Players of Pokes: Daniel Negreanu, John D'Agostino, and anyone who can consistently make a living playing poker online. Editors/writers: Harry Knowles - aintitcoolnews.com, Mike Florio - profootballtalk.com, and Chuck Palahniuk. Showbiz: Christopher Nolan, Darren Aronofsky, Michael Mann, Quentin Tarantino, + John Malkovich, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Brody, anybody who thought the paparazzi/media would NOT be intrusive after they got famous... So I can snap a photo while incessantly asking about their baby. People who give a damn about their fellow human beings, but can still take a joke.

Morgan Webb, her brains are what really make her one of the most attractive women in entertainment. Granted, she's physically attractive as well, but that's not what's most appealing to me.

Gary "The Chameleon" Oldman, one of the most versatile actors in the biz. --- [as Agent Stansfield in Leon]: Death is... whimsical... today.


Pablo Francisco, old people talk dirty bit. I've gotten some bad rep on Xbox Live for quoting this video to the children I play against.

Music:


You can download Minneapolis' own, MC Sims - 15 Blocks here: http://www.doomtree.net/15%20BLOCKS.mp3

My top five bands in no particular order: Radiohead, Nine Inch Nails, Placebo, Tool/Perfect Circle, Queens of the Stone Age

Other Favorites Include: Sevendust, Unkle, Collective Soul, Kasabien, Filter, Placebo, Death Cab for Cutie, Pinback, The Chemical Brothers, Tool, Perfect Circle, Muse, Radiohead, RJD2, Death In Vegas, The Decemberists, Wolf Parade, Rammstein, Sage Francis, Cursive, Massive Attack, Nonpoint, Days of the New, Interpol, Deftones, Bloc Party, Cold War Kids. Here come the acronyms: RATM, QOTSA, NIN, SOAD. Haven't even scratched the surface, but seriously who has??

- - - -

Filter - Jurrasitol , this is how music videos are supposed to be made -regardless of how nonsensical they might be.
Radiohead - How to Disappear Completely. A great song to listen when secluded in a darkened room. Contemplate life, and escape the madness of it all. Even if only for a few moments.

Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs - Y-Control , a pretty song, a pretty video with a pretty girl. Pretty, pretty, pretty. You see what I did there? I'm a lame-o


Movies:

My top ten include, but are subject to change: 1) Heat 2) The Usual Suspects 3) Sexy Beast 4) The Big Lebowski 5) Leon; The Professional 6) Reservoir Dogs 7) Die Hard 8) Blade Runner 9) Fight Club 10) Hot Fuzz

The Big Lebowski , a favorable sampling of the audio dubbed over the old cartoon, He-Man.

Television:

Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Nip/Tuck, Southpark, Mythbusters, 30 Rock, The Office, 24, CSI LV, Survivor, the Minnesota Vikes and my secondary team, the San Diego Chargers. Trying to watch less television and read more, but it's rather difficult to ween myself from its ever-so-sweet teat. Oh, and I just got into LOST, and holy shit somehow they've managed to transmit crack through the air waves because the show is just that good. Ahem, I've never sampled crack nor do I condone it.

**Update** I don't normally go out of my for tv unless somebody physically sits me down to watch with them. Otherwise if I'm genuinely bored I'll watch some Seinfeld or Curb Your Enthusiasm on alluc.org
Larry David is a comic genius

Wonder Showzen, -I pirated both seasons I suggest all mature minds follow suit. Here's a mere taste of its gloriousnessosity.

Books:

The Theory of Poker and Hold'em Poker for Advanced Players, both by David Sklansky -he's a mathematician by trade so beware of migraines.

Making Movies by Sidney Lumet.

I don't normally read novels or short stories for enjoyment, though I probably should. Hell, at the rate we're going I'll just wait for the film. And no I'm not even going to the theatres, I'll netflix that shit so fast your head will spin. God I'm lazy...

The dictionary, I prefer Oxford over Merriam-Webster. I'd rather learn proper English right from the horse's mouth no matter how salty. Fun fact: I actually pronounce schedule: (shedge.wool) & I pronounce herbs: (herbs). Why? Because there's a fucking "h" in it. Thank you Eddie Izzard

I also recommend any text your school has provided, could be important some day.

Heroes:

First and foremost my siblings, and I admire Ralph Nader and Daniel Negreanu.

The slim sum-bitch who just emits cool, Adrien Brody

Shinya Aoki , holds a black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu under Yuki Nakai, as well as a black belt in Judo. He is best known for his excellent flexibility, often taking opponents by surprise and earning him the nickname "Tobikan Judan," meaning "Tenth degree black belt in jumping locks." His current MMA record is 11-2, and has presently won 8 straight while obtaining the Shooto middleweight belt. In short, errr.. too late for that - this is one of many people I aspire to be like.
To see where I live copy and paste the location: 519 3rd avenue ne minneapolis 55414 . **If you're not using Firefox this column will look like ass. -upgrade your shit, k- thanx**

The irony is so thick it could choke a horse.
