About me:
I'm a 47 year old Canadian back in Toronto after living in Los Angeles for a number of years. Old Movie and Theatre Geek. Also a writer (6 Plays, A Book, A Screenplay, Attempting a Musical), a singer/songwriter of no threat to anyone, and a free lance Illustrator of the Toonish Persuasion.

Who I'd like to meet:
People with similar interests. I'd like to get back into theatre, so people involved in theatre would be great. Also folks that are into old movies are always cool. Writers, particularly funny ones are welcome. I'm a pinko/old school Canadian socialist, and I'm not looking to be converted. I like Smart People, they're always welcome.
