1:12 scale miniatures, 3/S cars - the Dodge Stealth and the Mitsubishi 3000GT, roses, art, especially pre-Raphaelite art, and John Williams Waterhouse, horses, museums, Renaissance Faires, Riverdance & Lord of the Dance, travel, nature, cats, well sometimes I like them better than others! History, linguistics, ethics, a good debate, labor relations and women's issues, aesthetics, literature, writing, humor, especially twisted humor, playing Kingdom of Loathing, Civilization 4, The Sims 2, architecture, statistics, socio-economic theory, animals, roleplay, good wine, roadtrips, and plenty more.
Some of my favorite shows I have seen include Criss Angel, Riverdance, and of course, Puppetry of the Penis...my all time favorite. I'd love to go see Cirque du Soleil.
Music
I have a rather eclectic taste in music. Classic rock, some crossover country, cajun music, some alternative, heavy metal. Led Zeppelin, Godsmack, Crazytown, Aerosmith, Black Sabbath, Crazytown, Dope, Butthole Surfers, Love & Rockets, Eagles, Kid Rock, Cracker, Betty Blowtorch, Hank Williams Jr., Van Halen, Billy Joel, Alannah Myles, Taylor Dane, Joan Jett, Lita Ford, Bruce Springsteen, a lot of 80's hair bands, Barenaked Ladies, Ozzy, Kid Rock, Melissa Etheridge, Pink Floyd, and lots more. Anything but rap, elevator music, jazz, especially "smooth jazz", or yowly twangy ancient country music. Remember "Mars Attacks"?

Movies
Fried Green Tomatoes, Borat, Ghost, Heavy Metal, Interview With a Vampire, The Butterfly Effect, An Officer and a Gentleman, The Breakfast Club, Van Helsing, City of Angels, A Time to Kill, The Lost Boys, Forrest Gump, Stand By Me, Christine, Silence of the Lambs, Jacob's Ladder, Mesmerized, Sommersby, Pirates of the Caribbean, Benny and Joon. Anything with Jodie Foster or Johnny Depp.
Television
Not much. I like documentaries, mostly. Some of the real medical shows, but not the "re-creations." Animal Planet, nature shows, history and technology, and so on. But I do watch Survivor, CSI, and Dateline: To Catch a Predator, of course!
Books
Too many to list. I have well over 8,000 books, almost all non-fiction. Some of the latest read: Why Things Bite Back, Are Men Really Necessary?, The Armchair Economist, What If?, Not Out of Africa, Depraved and Insulting English...as far as fiction goes, I like Amy Tan, and some of Stephen King's older work. Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale is one of the most disturbing in an understated way, and the movie was fairly true to the book, which I liked. Movies that stray from the book's story, especially if they add elements that weren't there, and change the ending (especially for the worse), really annoy me. I also enjoy reading classic literature, such as Steinbeck, Chaucer, Shakespeare, Pepys, Maugham, and many others.

Yes, that's a 1991 Straman Stealth convertible in my backyard, an amazing piece of engineering! According to Road & Track magazine, it's 1 of 12 made, in 1991, and as far as I have been able to research, the only one ever done with an automatic transmission.
"Don't mistake my kindness, for weakness."
"Morality is measured by what you do when nobody is looking."
"On your knees, wretch!"
"Lead, follow, or get the hell out of the way!"
"Stupidity should be painful!"
"We'll cuddle afterwards, I promise!"
"My only hope is to outlive all these damn cats..."
"I am my own driver."
"Piss off, then."
"You're in my personal space!"
"Because I can, that's why!"
"Life is too short not to drive a convertible."
"I'm not anti-social. I'm asocial!"
"If you can walk, you can dance, if you can talk, you can sing."
"Many things I may be, not all of them good, but one thing I am not, is stupid."
Suffers no fools gladly. A misanthrope. And does not play well with others.
Doesn't deal with drama, gameplaying, dishonesty. You won't get that from me. And if I get it from you, even a hint of it...I'll disappear. Like you never even knew me. So be forewarned. I'm down to earth, loyal, and will either be the best thing that ever happened to you, or the best thing you never had the chance to have.
A lone she-wolf, who takes what she wants when she needs it, and takes what she needs, when she wants it.
Not afraid to speak out against evil...to take action...to make a difference, even if it's just for one person. Right is right...wrong is wrong.
Not afraid to cruise alone.
The sound of the wheels on the road, the roar of the engine and exhaust, the turbos spooling up, the sudden 'hooosssh' sound of the blow off valve.
Disappears like a whisper in the dark, and moves on, never looking back, never saying what if...
Just gone.
Leaving only traces, at most; a memory. And taking nothing with me to slow me down from rounding the next curve.

Who I'd like to meet: Someone sweetnatured, patient, affectionate, easygoing, capable, ambitious, committed, thoughtful, loving, honest, a great lover, faithful, dependable, considerate, trustworthy, kind, good-looking, intelligent, understanding, generous, a good father, appreciative, gentle, goodhearted, and devoted. Someone with integrity, a sense of right and wrong, and willing to stand by his principles...willing to do what's right, even if it isn't the easiest road at first.
And will be there for me when I need him, even if I don't think I do...puts up with my twisted sense of humor...my idiosyncracies...and my cars...and just as importantly, loves me, and only me, for better or for worse, for good times and bad...and will never leave me.
