I'm an intermittently charming moderately outdoorsy moderately cultured moderately shy guy who thinks that chain restaurants are the forgotten members of the axis of evil; must suppress constant cravings for #65 at Saigon; prefers his music obscure, his movies foreign, and his TV trashy; drinks pretty much anywhere that has a license; is enraged by cheap sentimentality; thinks Nebraska is great but doubts he'd ever want to live there; broke a 20 year hiatus from eating ketchup after buying Heinz stock; spends too much time reading Slate; can play a mean game of Scrabble; is guilty of using the semicolon more than strictly necessary. I am also a morning person--I'm competing in three triathlons this summer and I'm on a masters swim team (though you shouldn't take that to mean I'm all that fast), so I'm up before dawn every weekday (and sometimes on weekends) to train.

An easy-going, adventurous guy with an appetite for ethnic food, interesting music, offbeat travel, bitter ales, and cold climates. An interest in camping is a big plus: if a campfire, a six-pack (or two) of PBR, and sleeping under the stars sounds like a good time to you, we probably have something in common.
