PS. It would be nice to meet some that don't play cat and mouse behind a computer screen. No offense to anyone but Cybersex gigabites. There ain't nuthin' like the real thing baby. On top of that I can't figure out which is the worse the chance of getting an STD or Carpel Tunnel

Movies
I love movies. --Sarcasm Alert-- One of my favorites was Peggy Sue Got Married and I hated that it ended. No one likes getting woken up out of a deep sleep. I know I didn't
On a more serious note, I received a few emails and I want to clear up a misperception. Among my all time favorite movies are The Original Goodbye Girl Somewhere in Time Sleepless In Seattle A League of Their Own, and Titanic I own them all
My prudish mother won't watch the X-Men because she thinks it's about my transgendered cousin. She'll never get over that one. _____________________
I have to say I was pleasantly surprised with ELI STONE. I don't watch much TV but that was good. You can catch all the episodes online at abc.com

Books
My First Two Books
About my first books. I am constantly asked if I wrote them because I suffered from depression. The answer is yes in that when your friend or partner suffers depression, you suffer as well. The books were born out of the experience of having been with someone whose depression problems are so deep seeded that the person has developed a major disorder. This is nothing that came about overnight. It has been growing inside this person for many years long before I met them. Because detection was not made early enough and the person doesn't seek proper treatment to manage their disorder, it will always be a center factor in the troubles repetitiously experienced in that person's life.
The books are to promote depression awareness and management. They are in recognition that there is survival and great possiblities of a high quality of relationship and life despite the illness. The books show you the how and the why.

To Answer an email about if would ever consider writing a love story. Right now, I am working on the reseach. I'd like to write that one from the heart.
Ok, ok you can stop asking, the answer is: Yes,I am willing to accept any and all help with that.! (Who would of thought that many wiseguys would ask the same question? Now lets see who follows through)
The First year I missed the first 8 weeks of Heroes because I kept trying to find it on the Food Network.
My real heroes are the everyday people who reach out to others in times of need for no other reason but it is from the heart. I know many of those people appear on my friends list.
Update Dec. 07 I wrote the above statement over two months ago. As each day has past it grows in truth more and more. I applaud you all for exemplifying my belief that every one has something special within them. As you are all special people in more ways than you realize.

Sometimes Something Just Hits Home And Says It all About You (New 12-30-07)
I like my new hometown, it's a lovely place but I get the impression they don't consume much wine around here. I walked into a liquor store and asked if I could order a Chateau de Neuf du Pape '82. The owner replied, "I don't think they make that anymore."

This should probably be in the blog, but I wanted to put this upfront
My original impression of people in MySpace was that they were superficial. I have come to find that is not true at all. There are a lot of great, nice, caring as well as cause active like minds here to make me proud to share this community with. And many of you know who I am talking about. It's not the environment but the people who make this place fascinating, You not only answer the question, "What Kind of World do You Want?" as James Taylor puts it, "You got a friend"

In the MySpace Group “Can't Talk About Sex!”
Can you talk about not talking about sex?
So How come none of the candidates
show an endorsement from Britney?
How come so many people will write in
to save a TV show
but can't find time for their love ones?
Am I the only one who shops at the Acme
that walks around going "beep beep"?
If your behavior is inconsistent why
are you surprised You have the the problems you do?

By all means marry; if you get a good wife you'll become happy; if you get a bad one you'll become a philosopher.
After that last one I am very much the philosopher
I will add For the Right person I'd give up philosophy and concentrate on studying anatomy fulltime

Who I'd like to meet: someone who isn't so intertwined with fidelity that everytime they leave the house fidelity goes out the door. I don't mind a woman on the prowl, but right after the wedding is a bit much. I understand loving your job but sleeping with the boss means he got the raise and your going to get the shaft.
I want to meet John Edwards and Ann Coulter at the same time.
I love to watch a good cat fight.
I love to meet someone who can really get into the moment, I don't last as long as I used to.
I want to meet someone who understands that if that one side effect of lasting more than four hours takes place the last person I'll be calling is my doctor.
I was asked to take a moment and be serious
Ok I'm done! Well not quite done>
I'd like to meet people who see the something special in others without trying.
Most of all , I would like to meet a woman who narrows my interests (see general interests)
Meanwhile I'll being listening a Foriegner-Carly Simon medley seasoned with a bit of Journey and Beatles. I assure you while I may "..Want To Know What Love Is" and wait in great "Anticipation", I am not the one "Who's Sorry Now." And I never will because I have "A Little (actually a lot) Of Help From My Friends." As a friend of mine recently helped me find out I do know what loves is. The rest gets easier from there.
