don't have my own tv, and so will watch almost anything (or more frequently nothing)

I will talk to almost anybody about almost anything; I
will (try to) read whatever you put in front of me; I
have a very excitable dog named Rupert; I believe that
good spelling and grammar enhance the quality of (my)
life; and my most powerful weapon [outside of my wit(s)]
may very well be my well-equipped spice rack.

If you don't take yourself seriously, I'll return the
favor; earnest bad, sincere good; someone who can fend for
himself socially; do you like dags?; someone who finds
sassy sexy.
