I'm not a good person to do a "self summary"

I'm 6'1", an amateur entertainer, work a day job,
like classic Mercedes, creative writing, singing in clubs
and recording.

I love my Mom and sisters, listen to 89.9 KCRW and
perform on stage whenever I have the opportunity.

I announce jiu-jitsu bouts, sing at weddings and old folks homes,
and run a creative writing group online.

I have an encyclopedic knowledge of everything about
Mercedes Benz and Star Trek, and have a voice that
people immediately compare to an old fashioned movie actor.

I'm also a veteran of crazy romances, and have had my heart
broken by the very best.

I need a relationship the same way a healthy person needs
excessive chocolate candy.

Trying to figure out how to change my name to Leopold Stotch.

Currently, I'm into running, writing a book,
indulging in music, and just enjoying myself.

Managing throngs, singing, writing

My WC Fields-like voice.

How to get what I want without hurting anybody.

The state of the world.

Absurdity.

Sex.

(In that order)

I don't really have a routine, per se' I like to maintain an edge of spontaniety.

Sometimes when I'm at a McDonalds, I wait until nobody is looking, and then I stick my hand inside the straw dispenser...

and touch all the straws.

if you're so inclined.
