A hero ain't nuthin' but a sammich. I dunno if I have any heroes. The closest I can come to is Jon Stewart because he's informed, funny and doggone cute.

I'm a 30-something manchild looking for friends with similar interests. I get my kicks above the waistline, Sunshine.
I'm a total visuals junkie. I love eyecandy of all kinds (I'm a true Libra). So, if I've invited you to be my 'friend' and you're not gay, RELAX and don't get all twirked by the whole "gay" thing. It's only a small part of what makes me, well, me. Besides, it's all virtual, right? Right! Plus, I just have really great taste.
I don't have a very large circle of friends, and all the ones I do have don't live here, but in nearby cities, so meeting local people would be cool. I enjoy doing "boring" stuff like playing Boggle, or word games, watching movies or just hanging out at home, bookstores or just working on whatever "art" project I've come up with lately.
I got my Myspace layout from pYzam.
Who I'd like to meet: A musclebound bookworm with low standards. The 3 qualities of the perfect man: muscular, mute, orphan.
Or if that doesn't pan out, just some cool people with similar interests, who share my love of movies and whom possess a wicked sense of humor and an extensive knowledge of all aspects of pop culture. Oh yeah, and if you like Chinese food, that's a +
If you are ever in the neighborhood, like this lady was, check out the funniest show in town!
I wish you continued success in all you do.
“Goodnight now and may God bless”
