Well, this is easy enough, right? 26 years old, going on 40 some days, from the northeast coast of Florida. I'll let the other questions answer more about me, but if you want to know something, just ask!!!

Right now I'm a high school teacher. That's right, the next generation is in my hands...

...I know, I'm scared too! :-)

Other than that, just trying to be a guy looking for a girl who is worth the time. When I'm not reading essays or grading or preparing for the next day (my students really are my life some days), I really enjoy creative writing (ask about my screenplays), playing sports (golf, tennis, basketball, football), relaxing with a good book (just about anything, really), or enjoying a movie at home.

Writing, or so I think. I'm working on it at least. Also really good at organizing things. The club I sponsor at school always depends on me to keep them organized and ready! There are other things, but again, ask me! (I gotta give you an excuse to write me, right?)

I would hope my eyes, I've been told they are pretty penetrating and a deep blue or green.

Geez, I feel like I haven't seen ANY movies in the last year. The best ones I've probably seen (in the comfort of my own living room, that is.) have been A Walk to Remember, American Wedding, anything West Wing or Grey's Anatomy on DVD. (I'm addicted, I think.) I love comedies of all kinds, good drama, and the occasional suspense. However, horror is not up my alley. Unless it's cheeseball horror - like The Grudge or something. (Which I laughed all the way through...)

Books - wide open selection, everything from modern politics, which I'm obsessed with, to cheesy novels. If it's written well, I'll read it.

Music - same thing. I listen to most everything, but I'll just read off my iTunes list to give you an idea: AB O'Neill, Adam Merrin, Alan Parsons Project, Alan Silvestri, All-American Rejects, Amy Lee, Anna Nalick, Audioslave, Avril Lavigne, Big Punisher, Bill Conti, Bill Withers, BILLY JOEL, Black Eyed Peas, Bloc Party, Blue-Eyed Son, Blur, Bon Jovi, Boyz II Men, Buck Owens, Butterfly Boucher, Cary Brothers, Cat Stevens, Chemical Brothers, Coral Sea, CCC, Crossfade, Darude, Daughtry, David Barrett, David Robidoux, Default, Diddy, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Dommin, Drowning Pool, Elmer Bernstein, Elvis Presley, Eminem, Esthero, Sean Lennon, Europa, Evanescence, Explosions In The Sky, Fall Out Boy, Fatboy Slim, Fefe Dobson, FIVE FOR FIGHTING, Fort Minor, Frankie J, The Fratellis, The Fray, GAVIN DEGRAW, Gnarls Barkley, Green Day, Gym Class Heroes, Hans Zimmer, Headlights Headlights, the hereafter, Hinder, Howard Jones, Howie Day, Ivy, Jamaica United, James Brown, Jan Hammer, Jay-Z, Jem, Jerry Goldsmith, Jesse McCartney, Jesus Jackson, Joe Purdy, John Cafferty, JOHN MAYER, John Williams, JoJo, Jordan Pruitt, Josh Turner, The Juliana Theory, Justin Timberlake, Kanye West, Kate Havnevik, Keane, KT Tunstall, Lauryn Hill, Lifehouse, Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, Lisa Loeb, London Symphony Orchestra, Londonbeat, Luciano Pavarotti, Mannheim Steamroller, Marc Cohn, Maria Taylor, Mark Joseph, MAROON 5, Martin Page, The Mary Onettes, Mase, Mason Williams, Mercy Drive, Merrick, Michael Kamen, Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Mike Doughty, Mims, Mindi Abair, Montell Jordan, Motorhead, Mr. Mister, Natalie Wilde, Natasha Bedingfield, Nelly, Nelly Furtado, New Radicals, Nickelback, Nonpoint, The Notorious BIG, Ok Go, Panic!

Hmm, this is getting kind of intense now. 1 - My computer with internet connection. I have to be able to communicate with friends all over the country. 2 - My leather bound journal and favorite pen. Gotta keep working on my writings. 3 - Eight hours of sleep a night. I miss the days in college when I could sleep 10 hours and no one cared, now I have to (*shutter*) work. 4 - Decent food. Not cafeteria-type food, but decent real food. 5 - My music and CD player. (I listen to everything from rap and R&B to hard rock to Mindi Adair, and if you know who she is, kudos, and let's talk!) 6 - Last but not least, the students in the club I sponsor at school. They inspire me everyday to be that much more of a good teacher.

I spend a lot of time thinking about making a difference in the world through my students and the things I can affect, and a lot of time trying to search through the masses to find the one person who fits with me.

Relaxing with friends or heading out to a local jazz club to chill out. Also you can usually find me at the Mandarin Alehouse sipping on a beer.

Um, I'll admit plenty of private things to you if you want to know, but I'd appreciate a little e-mail love first, lol.

you are interested in chatting. I'm looking for someone witty, funny, enjoyable, and intelligent for good conversation and whatever comes up after that. If you are interested, please drop me a line!
