I have a month left in Philly before I return to California to study for the bar exam. So, I am treating my time sort of like summer camp: meet some new friends, have some fun, maybe even make a wicker basket for Mother's Day.

There is not too much to describe since I am nothing special - just finishing my time at Penn Law. As I am about to leave the city, Philly has finally grown on on me. The city reminds me why I own shares of Krispy Kreme and Abercrombie & Fitch in my stock portfolio. I figure Americans are getting "fatter" by the minute. Likewise, fratboys are getting "gayer" by the minute.

I am also a recovering pre-med as well as a recovering Baptist. The former probably explains why I am a law student. And the latter probably explains why I am gay.

Sadly, a friend once explained to me that gay guys fall into two categories - they are either Godiva chocolate or a Mars bar. The former is to be savored for its refinement. The latter is something you (literally and figuratively) stuff into your mouth to pass the time (before another meal). I want to meet a Godiva chocolate since I am probably nutty enough to go into the candy box with him.

Is it too much to ask to meet a Rhodes Scholars who is a former crew member and happens to model for Abercrombie in his spare time when not building hospitals in rural Zaire?

Unfortunately, he is probably, at best, a figment of my imagination (but he would make a great Christmas party date or at least an acceptable neophyte porn star).

In the meantime, I am pretty comfortable with most guys as long as they are mellow and masculine. Age range is about +/-4 years (since grabbing a Guinness at a bar does not sound too bad at the lower end and no gay guy will admit to being older than 30 at the upper end.) Prefer someone in college or with a degree. Not being an academic snob, but talking about the Cartoon Network for more than 15 minutes can get boring (although you get points for watching The Simpsons or South Park). You also get point for reading "The New York Times," thinking that BCS is the worst idea ever in college football, and being a lacrosse player.
