I'm a walking contradiction, an oxymoron and a paradox.I'm down to earth, but only until I get this gravity thing figured out. I used to think I was complex, but I've come to realize I'm a simple man, really. (Thanks, Grouch)

I hate cops.

I enjoy my job; there is never a dull moment. I also appreciate the complexities of working within a system that is designed to fail way too many of our children and sort them into their social roles. I enjoy the challenge that presents to a dreamer who wants to do some good in the world.

I spend my time working and playing. I like to stay active. I am always trying something new. Right now it's soccer. I like to write slam poetry and perform it from time to time... what a rush. Otherwise, I'm fairly subdued.

I love to see live music, particularly smart hiphop. I grew up in Washington, DC. I miss it sometimes, but this is home now. I love snowboarding in the winter and being on the water in the summer.

For whatever reason this forum leads me to write short random sentences rather than put together a cohesive essay... maybe it's laziness.

I think it's weird when people say that they love to laugh and have fun in their profiles. Are there really people that don't? I make sure that I actually do those things.

I'm looking for a beautiful, confident woman who doesn't take shit from anyone.

I love me! Maybe you will too. We can probably have some fun together, either way.

I'm styley, persistent and awesome.

If you're nice to me I'll write you a poem.

sending messages to women telling them i'm not interested... just in case they were wondering.

I teach high school, but learn more than I teach. I'm trying my best to make a positive impact before I leave. I walk alongside my children as they grow up. I enjoy myself.

Running a classroom of 30+ teenagers. Introspection. Shaking my booty. Understanding. Kissing. Travelling. Finding my way home.

My beautiful blue eyes. My steez.

I like the interesting ones.

Love.

Ok... You asked for it. I spend a lot of time thinking about what you were thinking when you came to my page, but didn't send me a message. so if you could just drop me a line and say, "I don't date men with kids", or "I never have liked blue eyes", or "you seem like kind of an asshole", or "I thought you looked attractive in the thumbnail, but when I got a closer look... not so much", that would be great. I'd do the same for you, but I think it might be taken as mean spirited. I am not sensitive like that, just inquisitive (and a bit of an egomaniac, apparently), so give me your worst (or best).

But that's when I'm on okcupid. Otherwise, I think about how we can rid the world of capitalism. It certainly has done quite a bit for the world, but the bad outweighs the good. It's time to move on.

I also think about sex a lot if I'm being totally honest.

Having a fantastic time.

I was looking at your ass when you walked by.

You're drop dead gorgeous like me.
Maybe you shouldn't.
You want to dance with me.
You're kind of a bad ass... no, really.
You wouldn't be offended if I made a casual joke re: pussy and cats.
Or even offended easily in general.
You want to tie me up.
You want me to tie you up.
