If time was not a concern I'd be a chef, classical trumpet player, radio talk show host, comedian, economist, psychologist and professional dart player. I'm working on combining them together.

I enjoy any movie that requires a modicum of thought with the exception of killer clowns from outer space.

I've played music for most of my life so I appreciate anything that requires skill. But I do have KUSC and anything progressive in heave rotation.

I am always looking for new places to eat, drink, and have fun that aren't promoted through national TV ads or by flyers stuck under my car wiper.

At college I once saw a girl take a bottle of hidden valley ranch out of her purse to accompany her newly purchased chicken strips, and the bottle was one of those industrial sizes.

This entertained me and was a point of conversation for a number of hours.

First dates are best served with mediocre expectations with small amounts of investment that can then lead to above-average results.

With that in mind... lets get some dinner at a strange looking restaurant with a B rating, order something I can't pronounce, see a foreign film with no subtitles, get dessert at a ice cream shop and order the cake, go to a coffee shop and order the tea, decide to take the streets rather than the freeway and hope for the best.

In all reality, I dunno.
