Holding wireless companies accountable

The guy who hangs out in the parking lot behind Main St. in Santa Monica and puts change in the meters always tells me I'm his boy.

If it ain't fun, why do it? I'm a libra, which
didn't mean shit to me until I read my birthday's profile
in "The Secret Language of Birthdays" and was rightfully
freaked out by how accurate it was. I'm 5' 3" short and look 10 years younger than I am, so I'm considering going back to school... for undergrad... it was a lot of fun last time, but I'd probably get better grades this time around. I'm also incredibly motivated and passionately lazy. I'm an entrepreneur, and recently started a wireless technology company. I don't believe that hating or discriminating against a particular sexual group or race means that you have "traditional values," - just the opposite, actually. Oh, and I hate the W. Regime, and spent a lot of time this summer registering young voters at concerts all over the country in hopes of getting them engaged in the world around them.

People who impress others by their character instead of their image. Someone to whom I can relate and connect on all aspects - emotionally, spiritually, physically, etc. I tend
to enjoy relationships with older women more - less
bullshit, more real, and every time I've had my heart broken it's been by someone younger than me. Who do I want to meet? Barry Manilow... I mean, he wrote the songs! Or Someone who can hold my
attention, which generally requires possessing an inate
desire to kiss and cuddle for days on end.

Some combination of the following - someone who understands and seeks out the exhiliration and bliss that music can provide; funny (a must), intelligent (another must - I know, I'm picky...), caring, adventurous, someone who is consistently described as a great friend, attractive and sexy (not necessarily in a centerfold-type of way)
