I'm African American, American Indian, British West Indian and German. I consider myself cross-cultural, and different from most people you may have met. Yes, like Obama.

I've got a decent "career" in web tech and I also do stand up comedy and improv from time to time. I really love to write so I'm committing more time to that. Any minute now...

Being a technical or trivia resource, finding a perfect parking spot, providing shelter in a storm, being outgoing and friendly, getting really excited, and of course recovering from reality's asylum

My smile, or "the twins" ;)

"Nothing worth doing is completed in our lifetime; therefore, we must be saved by hope. Nothing true or beautiful or good makes complete sense in any immediate context of history; therefore, we must be saved by faith. Nothing we do, however virtuous, can be accomplished alone; therefore, we are saved by love."
-Reinhold Niebuhr

Friday nights are never the same and I kinda like it like that. Couple of things I like to do on Friday nights:
watch a good film
discuss policy and society with friends
chill on a dark semi-lit but still warm beach
write music and sing it
write jokes or see a friend perform theirs
swimming in the apt pool

You enjoy conversation, your interest is piqued, or you insist on giving me a million dollars.
