About Me

Where do I begin? Wrongfully accused of a crime I did not commit, I had to serve time in a lowdown and dirty penitentiary. To get an early release, I agreed to be experimented on by a scientist. During the procedure sumthin' went wrong and I could have died, instead I got near inpenetrable skin and enormous strength - which helped me to break out of jail. Now I'm trying to right the wrongs on the streets by offering my skills as HERO FOR HIRE!

My Interests


I'm a pretty outgoing, relaxed fella who loves to party as well as chill and read/watch movies/drink mojitos/make music (that's a new one).Yeah, I'd consider myself a jock...if I had more time to practise my favorite sports, but when I'm at it I absolutely dig basketball. I'm down with nearly any sport, be it soccer, tennis, volleyball, squash, bull riding, reading out loud in the subway, etc...

I'd like to meet:

Well, people with with people skills...mostly. I do love an intelligent discourse, be it about some banality or a deeper, more sophisticated topic, yet I have a pretty low tolerance level for self proclaimed "intellectuals" - the real ones don't need to brag. Oh, and I absolutely, positively DO NOT like myspace headlines that read like this: "Live life to the fullest" or "Live your dream, don..t dream your life" and finally "Carpe diem". Soooo, if you have one of the above idioms in your headline, don't go in anger, just go!Some people call me "flirtatious", and I probably can't deny it, but I'm still fascinated by the idiosyncracies of the female species. And while we're at it, I'm relly attracted to women with a good sense of (dry) humor. Be warned, I'm no Disney character. So, if you consider yourself an "Arielle", I'm more of a "Fritz the Cat".
I'd like to meet some like minded people who share my interests or add some new ones to my catalogue.

And if ya don't like it, Eddie's gonna tell ya what I think...
