TV is just so bad now....... More of a DVD buff.. I tend to watch really piss-poor tv - i turn it on and it is just there - really bad bad programming

An introvert, cynical, industrious, always
thinking, superior minded, nice guy, generous

Favorite color: eggplant purple.. maybe forest or emerald
green.. though I do like copper. But do I say copper
because it is unusual and I want to be different? I like
copper... not brass, not gold, but copper. I will stick
with copper for now and the other colors mentioned above
are my standard color choices. I hate it when people
say.. 'I don't have a favorite color' - what the heck are
they talking about? They have no preference of one color
from another? My least favorite color.. yellow. Why? No
good reason, except that of all jellybeans and hard candy
I always hate the lemon ones the most.. I still eat them,
but not my favorite.

Favorite food: spicy, cheesey.. perhaps pizza.. or
quesadilla.. Chevys. I have grown an immense fondness for
Indian food.. curry especially. Vindaloo Jalfrezy
is 'absolutely brilliant!'.. one good thing about coming
to England was experiencing this cuisine. I also like
things with vinegar... malt vinegar on chips - yum. I also
love coldcuts.. or better known in the UK as the
Ploughmans Platter.

Favorite song: something modern, but with a taste of old..
definitely instrumental.. I like classical mixed with
electronic.. liked Malcolm McLaren... certain PetShopBoys
songs... I like Funeral for a Friend by Elton John...
Bohemian Rapsody.. Marc Almond did a solo album (I think
it was called Tenement? Symphony).. I like William Orbit..
I like Robert Miles.. also have an affinity for Gino
Vanelli (80s ballads). geez.. some of the music I like is
kinda gay-ish showtunes - but I assure you I am hetro :)
Lately I have been listening to rave-ish dance music (very
European). I love the beat.. but I can't dance worth a
lick.

Favorite personal belonging: I used to care about
things.. gadgets and electronics. I still like them.. and
it is almost therapy to buy them - but they are just
things with no sentimental value. I have this coin (but I
don't know where it is), some coin I got in 1980 and I
used to keep it around all the time. almost like a good
luck charm (if I believed in those). Of course.. I have no
clue where it went... kinda disappeared a year ago. I have
a few old objects that I still have.. I got this teddy
bear my real dad gave me when I was 2 and another bear my
mom gave me since I was born.. but it isn't like I reflect
on them much... they just collect dust on a shelf. I still
have my wedding ring (costed a whole $125 in 1989)..
amazing that I haven't lost it. I guess I have no
favorites... everything is just a thing. Maybe I should
care about things more.

Bad habits: this is a good self-examination probe. I think
I don't listen good enough, I sometimes glaze over and
don't really listen.. just nod. I often find myself
interrupting prematurely in a conversation and then have
to hold back til the other person is done. I also swear
sometimes... I procrastinate.. Here is something that
always worries me: I think that I am lazy. Now my wife
says that I am a hard worker, but I feel that I waste time
and am not proficient. If I ever put 110% effort into my
work I could accomplish great things. I often rely on my
ability to do things quick and that I am 'not dumb' and
make others think that I am a hard worker. There have been
times in my life that I had to be careful that I wouldn't
lie, cheat or steal. When I was a kid I always thought
that my dream job would be a spy or a cat burglar - I
think this may say something about my morality. I don't
like this subject much.. as it is hard to be honest and
not sound like some sort of freak. I must refrain from
homicide....

Worse sensation: Walls crumbling down... a white surface
being painted over with black.. all I get are greys.
Haunting and menacing feeling of inadequacy, failure,
doom, and guilt - these are the things that put me to
sleep. I dread the moment when the light are off, the tv
glare has died, silence envelopes, my mind roams endlessly
and loss and scattered and busily and in all directions
all at the same time. I hate to go to sleep... too many
things to do, to think about... too much time to relive my
past, to feel guilt... why can't it be instant. zzzzz.

Greatest sensation: sex? its good but the best sensation?
I think after an exhausting day, in my boxers, flopping
down and laying down on my back on the comforter and
really stretching... feeling the cool texture of the
undisturbed cotton quilt and really stretching. I only get
the sensation once in 10 times that I flop down and
stretch... but the time when everything clicks - it is
freedom. Freedom for 20 seconds.

I really dislike people... no offense.. but people suck.
I have a small circle of friends... now taking
applications
