"Whatever I take, I take too much or too little; I do not take the exact amount. The exact amount is no use to me."

I am a(n)
-restaurant manger
-functioning workaholic
-craft beer specialist (the research is as good as you think)
-foodie (hate using that word, but it gets the point across)
-amateur cocktailer (noticing a Freudian trend?)
-not-always-practicing martial artist
-fight fan
-unabashed dork
-information sponge
-ink collector

I work some pretty rough hours, so getting to meet people other than drunk college kids (there are a lot at my place) can be challenging. I still love giving people food and booze and making them happy. It beats selling insurance. It was a phase. Please don't judge me.

The online experiment for dating has produced mixed results. So have all other forms of drumming up prospects, so I'll allow for the continuation.

I am
-laying the first bricks of an empire.
-making people happy, one delicious beer at a time.
-trying to make little improvements to keep myself from running off the rails.

-making lists
-logic
-perseverance
-left hooks
-margaritas (I did manage several Mexican spots)
-conversation
-analysis
-sarcasm
-choking people (I mean in the martial arts way....mostly)
-chili

I'm a ridiculous smart ass.

Books: Philosophy and history. Nietzsche, Dennett, Dawkins, Schoppenhauer, Emerson, Gladwell.

Movies ; The Way of the Gun, Old School, Irreversible, Anything hysterical or disturbing.

Music: Everything, and I do mean anything. El-P, Queens of the Stone Age, Muddy Waters, George Clinton, The Wu-Tang Clan, Aesop Rock, Mozart, Slayer, The Blood Brothers, Ministry, Tool, Converter, The Black Keys Etc

TV: Not so much. Only shows I ever got into with a plot were The Shield (and Now Sons of Anarchy because it's the same writer), the X-Files, and Game of Thrones. The internet made my addiction to The Daily Show possible, so I have no use for cable. A good Nat Geo show will keep me entertained.

Google, beer, coffee, exercise, fried food, sleep.

What I'm going to put in my mouth.

Working.

You're a rocket scientist, lingerie model with a passion for cooking.

If that happens to not be you, but you're chill, trying to find your version of success, have a gym membership and want to grab a pint of delicious beer sometime, I'd like to hear from you anyway.
