I am a charming paradox of a man. I am not into drugs, but think most should be legalized. Unsolicited advice is annoying, yet I fight the urge to offer my advice to everyone. I love sport and bodybuilding, but I also love art and I am always reading real literature. I enjoy films, but dislike going to the movie theater.

Some may think I am obnoxious, others may think I am the cat's ass...eventually everyone respects me as the individual I am.

You are forewarned, I often use the term broad when referring to women, i.e, she's a classy broad. It is meant as a term of endearment and my mother is a broad. I guess you can take the boy out of the Bronx, but not the Bronx out of.......oh, I also dislike cliches.

Working, traveling (often spontaneously and preferably far off),spending money, saving money, being social and still trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up.

entertaining: telling jokes, feats of strength, telling people what their problem is!

My physique or my eyes

I appreciate most all literature (50 shades of gray is not literature) and most music (since Johnny Cash died, country is barely music). I don't watch much TV besides sports, Discovery channel and HBO.

I am adventurous when it comes to food and enjoy fine dining as well as hole in the wall restaurants. I love a good duck confit, but still think buffalo wings can be considered a delicacy. I am trying to get the delicatessen of my youth to name my favorite sandwich after my family. Please ask me to describe the sandwich. If you suffer from high cholesterol, heart disease, or are a vegan, the description may cause you to pass out. I like to indulge in decadent food from time to time, but my diet is generally very health conscious.

Please see Maslow's hierarchy of needs....plus humor, electricity, hot showers, exercise, memory foam mattresses, etc.

life, sports, women, money, happiness, writing a novel, food, travel, shaving my beard, did I water my plants?, why people think perspective photography is cool, restaurants, scotch, why women get manly tattoos, needing to learn another language, wanting vs. needing

doing as I damn well please. Which might mean going to gym after work and then resting on my couch, catching up on the cable series dujour on demand, and ordering in. Friday nights are for resting up from Thursday nights. However, I am often persuaded to go out by friends.

I love the Antiques Roadshow

Beautiful nerds skip to the head of the imaginary line!
