My self-summary
I am a person who knows where he stands. I am passionate about my beliefs and have the self-assurance to stand up for them (though I'm not pig-headed about it).

I am looking for a good woman. This is the last piece of the puzzle in my life to really make me complete. I am looking for someone who is loyal, intelligent, and enjoys having fun. Hopefully I'll hear from you soon.

I am free thinker, open minded, and loyal
What I’m doing with my life
I've been a professional chef for over 11 years. I love what I do. Food is a great passion of mine but somewhere inside of me I always thought of myself as a writer, perhaps that will be realeased one day.

I currently and studying the great and lost art of butchering, and I must say I love it. The ability to cut beautiful meat into someones dinner is something I take great pride in, and I get to play with sharp knives every day, good times...
I’m really good at
My friends love my cooking, talking about History, finding new music to listen to...Making you laugh, and dancing, not really but you haven't seen the Angry Crab, when it come's out, it's awesome
The first things people usually notice about me
My eyes and I can beat you down with Sarcasm if I choose. It's all coming from a good sense of humor however. I'll make fun of myself in a second
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
History books, horror movies, extreme music and anything I can consume (except things like canned fish...that's just wrong).

To expand, yes I'm a nerd, I read a lot of history, specifically WWII. The sacrifice that Americans made for that war just blows my mind, I don't think that it could happen again (and hopefully it won't need to).

I always say that I don't read fiction, which is somewhat of a lie. I love the works of H.P. Lovecraft and if you do too let me know. If not you seriously need to check him out. Some brilliant writing.

And yes, I enjoy the darker side of life. That doesn't mean I am evil, I just have a different view on things...

So some of my favorite movies...Evil Dead, Halloween, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Any Romero Zombie flick, Argento from the 70's, Chasing Amy(really any Kevin Smith movie that's not Jersey Girl), Monty Python, Mr. Show, The Muppet Show(anything Muppets really), Scorsese, Tarantino and the list goes on...

I guess you could say I welcome what's already out there but what most people like to believe doesn't exist. The world can be a rather dark place but that doesn't mean we have to avoid it.

That being said the music of Pink Floyd, The Beatles, Cream...that shit blows my mind. How can you make such powerful and beautiful music? I guess that's why I'm a music fan and not a musician.

Lately I have been reading a lot of cookbooks, really food and science. What is actually happening in your food and why this is happening, what the end results are. It is really changing my way of looking at food, and my own cooking. Thank you Heston Blumenthal, Thomas Keller and Ferran Adria!
The six things I could never do without

and the greatest thing to come out of New Jersey since Taylor Ham, one Mr. Bruce Springsteen.

(Now is that seven or eight? Have I broken the rules?)
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Why i waste time on this website....

And cutting Meat, dream about it every night. Cutting through bones, we don't have a band saw, small European type Butcher. I know i love it because i can't get it out of my head and the hog, Steer, Vitellone, Lamb is outrageously good. Couldn't imagine being a veg head, just not my style
On a typical Friday night I am
Working than getting home and making some "real gourmet shit". Easy quote but name it.

Just Chilling out with the roommate, maybe checking out a show if it's around. I likes to keep it real and mellow...
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
If you put on the movie "Babe", I have been known to get teared up. I have a thing for pigs, when Farmer Hoggit says "that'll do pig, that'll do" it gets to me. And I love to eat them, go figure.

My goal is to have a pet pig one day; a little pink one; and let him grow large. His name will be Leatherface, but he will be safe from consumption.
