I'm a theater critic for a weekly entertainment magazine, reviewing plays and doing the occasional feature. This allows me to combine three of my top interests: theater, writing, and judging.

In my free time, I like pub quizzes, indie rock shows, the Cubs, the Bears, college sports, and collecting smart and funny friends.

I am, as they say, all over the place.

Like most everybody in the Western hemisphere, I've pretty much abandoned Friendster for greener social networks. But I keep this up out of nostalgia for the halcyon days of 2003. Send me a message and I'll still get it.

CK Dexter Haven.

Or: indie rock boys, comic book geeks, people who like free theater tickets, Cubs fans, creative writers, non-creative spellers, artists, activists, slackers. The smart and the funny. No gay clichés.
