I am Chivalrous, Deep, and Ass-Kicking.
My Self-Summary
'The word "my" always implies a distinction between the possessor
and what is possessed; when I speak of my book or my jacket, I do
not suppose that I am those things. But I also speak of my body, my
mind, or my personality, giving evidence thereby that in some sense
I consider myself as distinct from them as well. What is this "I"
that possesses my body and mind, but is not their equivalent.
Again, science tells me that there is nothing in my body that was
there seven years ago, and my mind and my personality have
undergone comparable changes. Yet, throughout their manifold
revisions, I have remained in some way the same person, the person
who believed not this, now that; who once was young and is now
old(er). What is this something in my makeup, more constant than
body or mind, that has endured the changes?'

What I’m doing with my life
Working, thinking, living, looking for like-minded people to spend
time with.
My goal in life is to experience it to the fullest. If I feel that
I don't know enough about something, or haven't experienced it
enough to know what I like/dislike about it, I delve into it and
absorb all that I can about it.
Currently I am training @ Intelliteach to be a Help Desk Analyst.
In other words, Tech Support for law firms.
I’m really good at
I'm good at listening to people and assisting them deal with the
shit that life brings. That "we" thing. I play a great devil's
advocate and enjoy looking at both sides of a situation. I
frequently find myself being the go-to guy when my friends need
help with advice in relationships, problems with family/siblings,
and peers/authority.
The first things people usually notice about me
I'm tall, dark, and handsome? I'm really outgoing and friendly, so
you'll probably laugh within the first 5 minutes of meeting me.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Books Watchmen, V for Vendetta, From Hell, Lost Blogs,
Catcher in The Rye, Le Morte D'Arthur, Dean Koontz, Stephen King. I
like to read as long as the book likes to be read.
Movies My interests range anywhere from nostalgic topics
such as
Almost
Famous,
The Notorious Bettie
Page, and
Forrest Gump to current day films
like
Dogma,
American
Beauty, and
Knocked Up. I enjoy action &
superhero movies like
300,
The Dark Knight,
Hellboy 1 & 2 and
darker films such as
Sin City,
Fight Club, and
American Psycho. I'm also
lately finding myself turning into a big sap at times, falling for
pictures like
Popeye,
50 Ways to Leave Your
Lover,
Keeping the Faith, and
Bicentennial
Man. However I always find comfort in comedy like
Clerks,
Superbad, and
Blades of Glory.
Music I listen to a very wide variety of music including but
not limited to
Industrial,
Rock,
Metal,
Big Beat, oldies, and some female
vocalists. I'm really into
Guns N' Roses and
The
Lonely Island lately. For more check out my radio @
last.fm.
Food Sandwiches, Sushi, Vegetables & Fruit, Italian,
just about anything. I am always willing to try something new. I'm
on a project to learn more recipes for a healthy high protein, high
fiber diet.
Drinks Alright, since the subject of Alcoholic beverages
seems to be under mass misinterpretation & they are misused
severely in today's culture, I'll explain why I drink frequently.
The last time I was drunk was my
after prom party. I drink
for the rich and unique flavor that certain beers/wines/liquors
provide. I love stouts and will give any microbrewery a shot. I
don't drink piss in a bottle, cough, Pilseners. I'll give most
wines a taste since I'm pretty new to them. Favorite beers would
have to be Chocolate Indulgence, Old Rasputin Russian Imperial
Stout, and Turbodog by Abita. If you're up for some beer sampling
with flavor in mind, not the intent to get shitfaced, let me know.
Bare in mind I'm Irish & German :)
The six things I could never do without
Velvetrance
Toothbrush, toothpaste, and Listerine.
Those moments in life that just get your heart fueled with
adrenaline.
Songs that make me feel unstoppable.
Laughter. I love good humor.
My car.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
"What advances? Malcolm said irritably. "The number of hours women
devote to housework has not changed since the 1930s, despite all
the advances. All the vacuum cleaners, washer-dryers, trash
compactors, garbage-disposals, wash-and-wear fabrics... Why does it
still take as long to clean the house as it did in 1930?"
Ellie said nothing.
"Because there haven't been any advances," Malcolm said. "Not
really. Thirty thousand years ago, when men were doing cave
paintings at Lascaux, they worked twenty hours a week to provide
themselves with food and shelter and clothing. The rest of the
time, they could play, or sleep, or do whatever they wanted. And
they lived in a
natural world, with
clean air,
clean water,
beautiful trees and
sunsets. Think about it. Twenty hours a week. Thirty thousand
years ago."
Ellie said, "You want to turn back the clock?"
"No," Malcolm said.
"I want people to wake up."
“I'm gonna share with you a vision that I had, cause I love you.
And you feel it. You know all that money we spend on nuclear
weapons and defense each year, trillions of dollars, correct?
Instead -- just play with this -- if we spent that money feeding
and clothing the poor of the world -- and it would pay for it many
times over, not one human being excluded -- we can explore space
together, both inner and outer, forever in peace."

On a typical Friday night I am
Flagging robot profiles on Okcupid
Listening to standup comedians
Talking with my wife
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
Two fields/details on this profile are an experiment ;)
You should message me if
...you want someone to hang out with on the weekends. Please be
honest & comfortable with yourself.
...you want deep & meaningful conversations about anything and
nothing.
ALSO, if you want to learn how to cook healthy food and are
tired of the fast food and shitty diets around here, I'd love the
company. High fiber, protein, and vegetables are my game!
