I'm an ex-standup comic and current computer geek. I think of myself as easy-going, but I'm afraid the reality is that I'm a larger version of Barney Fife--highly excitable at times ;-).

This is going to be a work in progress. BTW, I am *very* skeptical of many of the online tests that are modeled after the Briggs-Meyers tests. If you would like to know more about them, go to http://www.skepdic.com/myersb.html

I am Humorous as hell, skeptical, and Poly

I am in a rebuilding process as of now. I've recently found out things about myself I either never knew before, or never admitted to knowing. And, most of it's good. Like being poly. While not a viable lifestyle for everyone, I find it fits me well.

Most of what I am good at can not be discussed in polite company. ;-) However, if you have a spittoon handy, I will accommodate...I may not be a gourmet chef, but I have a lot of the science of cooking down pat.

People think I'm a biker. Some people think I have a ponytail. I have neither a bike nor ponytail, but I once had a pony named Nicky (Thanks to Steven Wright!)....UPDATE: I now have a ponytail. It's cheaper than a Harley.

Big on Batman and James Bond. Love comedies, things with Leslie Nielsen and stuff by the Zucker Bros and Jim Abraham, together or apart. In fiction, I like a lot of the modern classics, and counter-culture authors like Charles Bukowski or Somerset Maugham. Wait, Maugham is not counter-culture. He lived a rich, extravagant lifestyle. Oh well....

Good friends
Exceptional food
And this lamp...
And this chair...
And this ashtray...

I think a lot about the current state of the United States...how some people consider the freedom of religion means they can do anything they want willy-nilly in the name of their god (My god's name: Rufus. He's a Sagittarius that likes candlelit dinners and walks on the beach). To paraphase George Carlin: Religion is like a lift in your shoe. If you need it, it makes you stand a little taller, walk a little straighter. The problem with most religions is that they want to nail their shoes onto the natives' feet.

As of now, my Friday nights are a school night since I have to get up at 5am. I'm not a young as I used to be, so I'm in bed pretty early. Unless I get a better offer....

HAH! Thought you'd lull me in to a sense of trust, eh? Not so fast, Chuckles...I have to know a little bit about you before I tip my hand...

You want to chat, debate, argue, commiserate, date, perform deviant rituals, discuss current events, talk about a movie or book, take a test, or just want to hang out...drop me a line. I do prefer local people, however.
