My self-summary
Would summaries be more fun if were limited to 100 words? Mine would be:

Very funny Irish guy, a walking talking real-life British sitcom script, thirteen years in San Francisco, appreciates creative, smart, artsy women who still have held onto their soul and original teeth. Former archeologist (mmmm whip), now excavating for lost civilizations in the South Bay. Mostly sane. Almost inherited a sheep farm on Ireland's Atlantic coast -- that could have been a very different life.

Likes: good cheese. Really that's about it.

Dislikes: bad cheese. Really that's about it.

Single malts. How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
What I’m doing with my life
Sailing in the Caribbean. Eating in SF. Mixing cocktails in exotic Cupertino.
I’m really good at
Playing air tambourine.
Talking and listening -- often when others are present.
Finding the sweet spots.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
This is going to be a carousel of recent goodies. Best food lately was pasta from flour and water in the Mission. Man those English peas were to die for.

Books will vary, but having lived in Denmark I really like Scandinavian crime fiction. You know the stuff: Stieg Larsson's Millennium trilogy], etc. I had been enjoying Henning Mankell but he's just a bit too miserable for my liking. I read a lot of non-fiction too, especially popsci. I'm rereading John le Carré's Karla series at the moment. Tinker, Tailor, anyone?

I'm a big radio fan. I miss the BBC, and still listen to a lot of BBC Radio 4 podcasts

I love jazz and electric blues, but also classical. I finally went to the ballet for the first time and loved it -- third row center may have helped. I like indie rock too. Joan as Policewoman is a recent fave.
The six things I could never do without
The following six photos on your OKC profile.
1. Picture of you doing sky-diving.  This is non-negotiable.
2. Picture of you scuba-diving.  No, you cannot make do with just one extreme sport.
3. Picture of you somewhere exotic.  Sorry, the Eiffel Tower ain't gonna cut it.  We need pyramids, minimum.  If you haven't been (and seriously, who has?) try photoshop.
4. Picture of you with female friends in a social situation.  To prove you have some.  This should be in a bar, a restaurant, at a concert.  Not at Trader Joe's.  Not at Chipotle.  And ensure friends aren't hotter than you.  If necessary, borrow some ugly people for this photo.
5. Picture of your cleavage in a social situation.  To prove you have some.  Because really that's all men think about.  Or so you've been led to believe.
6. Picture of you with a kid in a social situation.  Probably not your kid.  Probably with some clear indication that you're a loving aunt or a volunteer, but really you'd be even happier with a kid produced with my good self.  Because really that's all men think about.  Aside from cleavage.

Extra credit for:
- you running a marathon or half marathon.  To show you can.  And hopefully with your bib number pixelated out so I don't nosily go and look you up on the publicly-available race results page.
- Your wedding photo -- with your ex scratched out.
- Arrest photo. Think Lindsey Lohan.
- Paparazzi shot of your underwear or down-blouse.  Think Lindsey Lohan.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
My music. You've never heard anyone play marimba like me.
On a typical Friday night I am
Reading through, comparing and cross-referencing my OKC messages.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
It's my personal goal to end 2012 still not knowing what "gangnam style" is.

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!
