I am a laid back person who likes to go out and have fun: movies, art, and festivals, play billiards. I enjoy walking at the park or along the boardwalk. I like moonlit walks too. I am given to bicycling and staying in generally good shape.
I like intellectual discourse over some coffee. I like going to poetry recitals.
Sometimes I am given to listening to a good bar band.
I like to check out the Museums too, historical artifacts pull my attention.
I tend to gravitate to intellectual and creative people.
The only thing I ask is be honest. Non-ethical people are a turn off.
I myself beleive in honesty and good ethics. Else, lets not waste each others time.
Other than that, I get along with pretty much everyone.
Though I do have a soft spot for the TALL women.
I have many eclectic interests, but I would share that info when asked.

The songs that would describe me:
You Belong to the City, by Glen Frye (Eagles)
El Farol, instrumental by Carlos Santana
Samba Pa Ti, instrumental by Carlos Santana
The Sea Named Solaris, instrumental by Isao Tomita
(this is a hauntingly beautiful tune that was in Carl Sagan's COSMOS)
Concierto de Aranjuez by Rodrigo
Stranger In Paradise, from the Boadway play Kismet. The melody is from a theme of Alexander Borodin's symphony Prince Igor (especially the Polotsevian Dances).
Yeah, I am a complex kind of guy....

and oh

Time Is On My Side, by the Rolling Stones
(I am too laid back for my own good)

If I do go to the bar, it is to listen to friends sing karaoke,
OR to simply listen to favorite tunes in the juke box and zone out.
Call it reflecting or meditating, I will tune out others just to listen to music.
Just what are my 'addictions": books, music CD's, anything that will enlighten my mind or enrich my soul. The type of person I may be addicted to: creative, brainy, intellectual, artistic (perhaps a poet, artist, or someone with a musical bent).

Interesting people amuse and amaze me. Gothic/Geek girls have a special place in my heart. Arrogant/pretentious people I find loathesome and annoying (beware, I AM an iconoclast).

Favortite phrase(s):
It is not who I am underneath, but what I do, that defines me.
Be as wise as serpents. (Jesus Christ refering to a sage Egyptian brotherhood).

I am so tempted on deleting my photo.
I miss my old symbolic image I had: Serpent & Grail
It had a very deep and esoteric meaning.

Typically I would ask the date if she wants to go to the movies and then dine afterwards. Then have some small chat. I would like to see what interests her so that I may plan the following outings based on mutual agreement.
