I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I give a damn.

And forget bi-curious, I'm epicurious...

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Gordon Ramsay.Food as porn...

Music:

Everything from Dvorak to DMC.

Movies:

Manhattan, The Searchers, Ikiru. Goodfellas, when it's not on network tv. I wanted to beat up the annoying guy in Blowup. Lee Marvin is a total badass. Toshiro Mifune one of the best actors that ever lived. Steve McQueen looks macho in pink shirts...I could definitely go on.

Television:

Lots, but not "Corner Gas." I don't understand why Canadians think it's so funny.

Books:

Always. Climatology is my new favorite topic.

Heroes:

Women who tell it like it is. Men who walk it.

If you haven't been paying attention to exchange rates, the U.S. Dollar is now worth about only $O.97 US. Let me restate that: THE US DOLLAR IS WORTH LESS THAN THE CANADIAN DOLLAR.We are now approachi...
