Interests & Hobbies
Meaning of Life:
No true fiasco ever began as a quest for mere adequacy. A motto of the British Special Air Force is: 'Those who risk, win.' A single green vine shoot is able to grow through cement. The Pacific Northwestern salmon beats itself bloody on it's quest to travel hundreds of miles upstream against the current, with a single purpose, sex of course, but also... life
Five Things I Can't Live Without:
My family, my friends, my music, my camera, my hope.
Favorite Books:
Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman! The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark. Sum: Forty Tales from the Afterlives. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The Art of Racing In The Rain.
What I Like To Do For Fun:
Take pictures, read books, and dig for vinyl. I'm a collector of sorts.
Favorite Songs:
Favorite Movies:
I love you, man. Our Idiot Brother. Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Crazy, Stupid, Love. The Horde. Grandma's Boy. Drive. Top Gun. The Notebook. Bronson.
Craziest Thing I've Ever Done:
Drove cross country with my best friend to attend a music festival, 5,500 miles in 72 hours spread over 10 days.
If I Could Be Anywhere Right Now:
'If we don't find anything pleasant, well at least find something new.' Voltaire
Hobbies:
I'm a man of many fleeting interest, blessed with the gift of time to pursue them. These are the hobbies that keep my sanity, photography, vinyl (more specifically 'crate digging'), and reading.
Talents:
I'm a jack of all trades, BETTER than master of one. I'm a 27 year old who was raised by a man born in the 40's. My talents have always been driven by two ideals, 'what a man ought to be able to do' and 'be useful.'
Perfect Mate:
Still trying to train my eyes into seeing what that looks like. =P Though I'm glad to say after 2 failed relationships, and countless learning experiences, I'm confident now I'd know her if I saw her.
Perfect Date:
Perfect date to me would be in the ending. I'd want to tell her I had an amazing time, and that I was glad I waited till I met someone like her that I could share it with. (In the past I've always hesitated at giving 'women the power') The perfect date would end with her making me feel safe.
Best Reason to Get to Know Me:
I'll be good to you. I'm sincere, honest and genuine. I might not always want to give you my hard earned money, but I'll always be willing to give you my time and attention. And maybe we both can be the best friends we never had. I'm just looking for a little validation.
