I am a really kind & intelligent guy who is very grounded in my family & friends. I love to read and spend part of my time doing community-building work. I am a researcher by profession, but see that as a result of my love of being a student. One of my dreams is to write a novel some day & find a great like-minded person to share the adventures of living.

The only thing I really have to do with my life is use each day to learn and love. The rest is really deatils. In my case, the detail is that I am a cultural anthropologist who specializes in sexual and gender cultures in the US.

Listening to people and connecting them with good reads and like-minded souls. I love to see my friends connect and build supportive friendships.

I'm funny and smart and like to make people feel they are the center of my attention when we talk.

Book: One Hundred Years of Solitude, The Motion of Light in Water, The Visible & the Invisible, The Kingdom of This World, Stars in My Pocket Like Grains of Sand, Grundrisse, The Phenomenology of the Spirit, & Black Reconstruction. To be perfectly honest, I read books the way some people eat donuts. I am an unreconstructed bibliophile and voracious reader. So, if you cannot appreciate the pleasures of the text, you won't ever get me.
Movies: Casablanca, M, Breathless, To Have & To Have Note, Breathless, Metropolis, & The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.
Shows: Iron Chef
Music: Jazz, Experimental Music, & 1970's Salsa

Writing my first ethnography and my first novel --- in that order.

I like to relax at home or just go to a lounge.

I once subscribed to the National Review when I was in high school.

You have an open mind, like to think new thoughts, abhor idle chatter, meet my marvelous 4-year-old niece (I'm her part-time man servant), believe that the verb form of revolution is love, and would like to try my cooking.
