Just moved to California to get away from the go-nowhere existence my hometown in Pennsylvania had to offer. Staying in Whittier now but plan to move to Koreatown once I can afford it.

I'm a writer. My true muse is film but I cheat with TV and comics occasionally. Any visual storytelling medium that will have me, basically.

Hobby-wise, it's strictly intellectual. No sports or outdoor activities. I tend to get intensely involved in a subject for a while and then move onto another of my regular interests, which include comics, female vocalists, politics, science fiction, history. The variety helps to keep my writing and perspective on life fresh. That's very important to me.

Confucius says, “Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance.” I like to keep the world "big." That means constantly learning new things.

My personal hero is David Lee Roth for his upbeat attitude, freaky spirit, and eclectic influences. I also look to Madonna and Batman for inspiration due to their both being self-made successes in their fields.

I'm pretty open so I'm looking for...a female. I tend to be attracted to brunettes, girls with glasses. The smart, sarcastic type. If you're all those things and British, you could be a serial killer and I wouldn't even care. But as I said, I'm open. Personality counts for everything, so if you wear yours well, I can at least appreciate it.

29yo, 5'8", 190lbs, long light brown/blonde hair, blue eyes, bearded, portly but kempt.
