Hello fellow okcupid.com user, welcome to my profile. A fabulous bastion of information about me awaits.

* I play percussion, strings and the accordion. Gigging isn't usually in my books but I enjoy going out and playing.
* Hockey and football (soccer) are my specialties, but I'll do pretty much any sport. The only team I really attend games frequently for is the Colorado Rapids.
* When I write, I use dashes far too often for my own good.
* Like many children I was a dinosaur kid, but unlike many children I evolved into a dinosaur adult. My favorite dinosaur is Deinonychus, which is what those 'Velociraptors' in Jurassic Park actually were.
* Marijuana has never been my thing, and there's no hard drugs in my repertoire either. I do drink, but mostly only in social situations. Don't see the point in getting drunk alone at home unless you're going to drunkenly scream at people on Skype while playing video games or something.
* Eventually I hope to own a cat - preferably a Russian Blue - and name it Bok Choy; my old cat's name was Pinto Bean so I figure I should keep the vegetable names running! Dogs are better when they're small I think, I may be the only person on the planet who likes chihuahuas.
* If I won the lottery, the first thing I'd buy would be a Vibraphone.
* There are strong ties to Upstate New York in my family, though I've only been to NYC once. I'd quite like to go again.
* I have a very sadistic, sardonic and sarcastic sense of humor. I also enjoy alliteration.
* A cruddy old 1998 Honda CR-V gets me where I'm going. I drive like a grandma though because the damn thing always feels like it's about to have an engine failure.
* My writing is a lot more eloquent than my speaking, though I can occasionally string a decent sentence together.
* Girls that know a thing or two about Geology are pretty sexy.
* My wallet has Mario enemies on it. Haters gonna hate.

I'm a professional blogger, which means I get paid to write about sports. Keen, eh?

On my off hours I write and play music alongside the occasional bar-hop around the city with friends. Pub trivia is another favorite, I do that once or twice every week.

I am currently in a relationship with ptocheia, and she is absolutely awesome.

Improvising jokes, playing ukulele and Vibraphone, composing Jazz/Rock songs, writing snide soccer game recaps and swatting gnats.

I've been told I'm a good kisser as well, though I wouldn't be the one to judge.

I'm a jack of several trades, master of... a few.

Yeah, I'm pretty much completely feature-less unless I am holding an accordion.

BOOKS: This list would be pretty long if I were to type it out, plus I would never remember everything. We'll just say I like autobiographies, comedic short story compilations, daily comic strip collections, informational witty picture books and forensic crime novels.

MOVIES: Anything by Pixar and that movie with Weird Al in it called UHF. I don't watch movies all that often and usually there's several movies that I haven't seen that just offend the sensibilities of people who assume everyone on earth has seen said movies. (Examples: Still have yet to see ET or Jurassic Park.)

SHOWS: I don't really do TV much, but I do enjoy Dexter. Past that I have every episode of several 1990's sitcoms on my Hard Drive as well as every episode of Whose Line Is It Anyway.

MUSIC: I try not to discriminate based on genre, but I know what I like. I specialize in classic rock and jazz, though there's a special place in my heart for pop music from all eras. I despise music snobs, some people need to realize that the pop music when they were young was just as shitty as pop music today.

FOOD: My favorite food is likely the Turkey, Bacon & Mayonnaise sandwich, followed by the Cinnamon Raisin bagel with cream cheese and the Kraft Mac & Cheese dinner. Despite the obviously non-gourmet tastes in that list, I do enjoy a wide variety of different foods.

My ukulele, guitar, bass, accordion, drumset and... laptop. Yeah.

Also, I never understand why people list "food water sex shelter etc" in this section. I assumed those were implied.

Anything and everything I can.

At a bar drinking, on the internet goofing around with people I've never met while playing online video games or out at a sporting event. Sometimes I'm at a bar drinking while on the internet and watching a sporting event.

I'm turned on by rock puns.
Also, I totally like Lady Gaga more than I probably should.

* You have a favorite dinosaur, with bonus points if that dinosaur isn't something cliche like T-Rex, Triceratops, Pterodactyl or Stegosaurus. Double bonus points if you instantly knew that Pterodactyls aren't actually dinosaurs.
* You are turned on by accordion music.
* You want to hear about the time that I was pseudo-kidnapped and taken to a Blues jam bar.
* You need a mediocre drummer for your rock and roll band.

Actually, you should probably just message if you are of the same species as me.
