I haven't had much luck with this lighthearted, a.k.a. silly, profile, so I'm in the process of rewriting it to be more serious, and hopefully to better reveal to you the kind of person that I am, so stay tuned!

Some things from my bucket list:

1. Learn to fly (not with Redbull)
2. Helicopter tour of the Grand Canyon (coming up in December!)
3. Go on a cruise with my friends and family
4. See a space shuttle launch (did this on May 14th last year!!)
5. Visit Hawaii

"I just wanna dance"...but I'm a product manager/software developer. I have this itch to build things, and since I'm a terrible wood worker, developing software scratches that itch.

Making my friends laugh, being creative, working hard, plundering treasure ships, and including random things in lists of things I'm really good at.

I would assume that it's my beard...could be the penguin costume though.

I devour sci-fi and fantasy books, sometimes reading four or five a week. I'll watch any kind of movie, though horror is definitely at the bottom of the list, but I love comedies like Van Wilder, Grandma's Boy, Accepted, and Superbad. Dexter, Family Guy, Californication, and Entourage are some of my favorite tv shows.

Musical tastes for me are pretty varied and largely depend on my mood, though I mostly stick to rock. I would never turn down the chance to listen to Breaking Benjamin or Linkin Park and I've recently re-discovered how much I love P.O.D but one of my favorite songs is Concert Etude No. 3 composed by Franz Liszt.

Mmm...food. I'm not picky when it comes to food, but I really enjoy a good steak, with a beer of course, sesame chicken, and Mexican food (with Corona in a glass with a salted rim and crushed lime, which is always lip-smackingly delicious).

I could list the obvious, such as air and water and friends and family, but that's kind of obvious, so here is more interesting list:

1. Toilet paper - Seriously think about it for a second. It's pretty damn important really.
2. Comfortable bed
3. Slippers
4. Computer
5. Internet
6. My swashbuckler
...and number 7 (cause I'm a rebel and asking for six things is odd enough that I might as well make it seven): Taco Bell

Mostly my future and how to better myself, but I also spend a lot of time mentally choreographing elaborate fight scenes with a giant chicken.

Definitely decompressing; my job is like taking a very difficult test...all week long. Usually a relaxing dinner with friends, a good book or video game, or if the week was particularly stressful, hanging out with Captain Morgan.

A few weeks ago I started working out every day (gotta take care of the ole' ticker), so I'm now definitely at the gym for a couple of hours on Friday nights.

Good question...that I love pirates?

By the way ladies, please do NOT write something like "I'll never tell" or "If I admit it, it won't be private anymore" as your answer for this question. It says "willing." The most private thing you're "willing" to admit. Just a little pet peeve of mine (I named him Jerry).

If you want to discuss my love for pirates...or if you want to send me dirty pictures...and by dirty pictures I mean pictures of you covered in dirt...or if you want to prove to yourself that you are brave enough to talk to a guy in a penguin costume.
