I am funny, intelligent, and easygoing.

My Self-Summary

I'm a pop-culture guru, self-taught guitarist, trivia fiend, talented but unambitious creative writer, voracious reader, occasional fitness buff and runner, terrible driver, worse athlete (except for skiing, and stickball), ambidextrous. I'm lactose-intolerant--I have no tolerance for lactose, and I won't stand for it. I drink more coffee than most two people, and I'm addicted to bad reality shows like Millionaire Matchmaker.

What I’m doing with my life

Copywriting, TV writing, writing a novel and a screenplay (aren't we all?) Male prostitution, but trying to keep that one on the down-low.

I’m really good at

Creative writing, memorizing useless facts and reciting them later, spelling and grammar, pronouncing words backwards, crossword puzzles, getting as much done with as little work as possible, being an incorrigible smart ass.

The first things people usually notice about me

Probably the seven-inch goiter that protrudes from my neck like a waterlogged Nerf football

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books: DFW, Nabokov, Kurt Vonnegut, Bret Easton Ellis, Robert Wright and many more

Movies: Any comedy with a brain or a heart. Or alternate universes.

Music: Steely Dan, The Beatles, Pavement and two hundred or so lesser acts

Food: Pork Cracklins', or actually anything with cracklins' at the end of it.

TV: Right now, I'm enamored with the NBC/FX Thursday night lineup, to the point that I'll often refuse social invitations in order to sit at home and watch these shows. More generally, I like most shows without initials or moral agendas.

The six things I could never do without

1. Music
2. Coffee
3. Sleep
4. Television
5. Bookie wooks (That's nadsat for books)
6. Somewhere comfortable to sit

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Bizarre hypotheticals, why people act how they act and think how they think, music, evolutionary psychology, physics and string theory, philosophy, new ideas for books and screenplays, time travel, sex, sex while traveling through time.

On a typical Friday night I am

Out at a bar or concert with friends or at home creative writing. Creative writing while at a concert has proven a little more difficult.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

The 'artificial oak leg' I claim I got in the Gulf War is actually made of pine.

You should message me if

If you admire Donald Fagen and David Foster Wallace, know why the fourth seasons of both "The Simpsons" and "Seinfeld" are the best, or can lucidly explain the many time-travel paradoxes in the "Back to the Future" movies.

Or, more realistically, if you're smart, funny and have something to say.

Conversely, if you have blatant misspellings in your profile, aren't interested in pop-culture or books, and didn't find any part of my profile remotely funny, we probably won't have much to talk about.
