I'm interested in martial arts, music, dancing, poetry, spirituality, "safe" drugs, cute fuzzy animals, in anyone that can teach me something new, anyone that can speak an exotic foreign language (or fake an exotic foreign accent well), girls that can kick my ass, guys that sing better than me, and anyone that can dance. I play the piano and guitar, I sing, dance, rollerblade, practice martial arts, and I look good naked. I cook, but not very often (I try to stay as close to a raw food diet as I can, even though from time to time I WILL mangle a Big Mac). I read but not as much as I write. And I love...
And a bunch of other stuff. Just ask...
