reality does not exist in the absence of observation

Grew up in suburbia PA, went to college in Boston. Moved to L.A. a very long time ago.

I am a music producer / mix engineer, and I also write music for film, TV and misc. artists and performers.

Looks may also be deceiving, for I do NOT, smoke, drink or use drugs of any kind.

Although, I am certainly not a STEPPER or a puritan, and will not hold a grudge if you are a casual user of such!

I AM NOW A P90-X GRADUATE!!! So I am in pretty good physical shape.

You may also find that I have a dark and somewhat twisted sense of humor, and sometimes the wreak of sarcasm will fill the room around us... lol

I really do LOVE FOOD!!! and I love to cook, although I rarely cook anything extraordinary for myself.

I am currently learning the French and Spanish languages. I also love to study philosophy, theology, cosmology, and the nature of human consciousness...

To be absolutely upfront, I am a secular / humanist and religion does not play any role in my life whatsoever.

I am a VERY intolerant man! because I have no tolerance for: ignorance, violence, racism, homophobia, sexism, pedophilia, hatred, war, human suffering, cruelty of any kind, apathy, selfishness, feeble minds, certitude without merit, etc, etc, etc...

Now to ruin my chances with 80% of the women on this site... I AM VERY ALLERGIC TO CATS!!! It makes me absolutely miserable to be around them for very long...

I suppose there is Claritin, but I don't like being drugged all of the time either...

P.S. Of course it says "friends" if you are not my friend, how could you be anything else?????

nobody actually seems to do it...

I am not interested in pen-pals or chat buddies. Either you are interested in meeting to see if there is a connection, or you are not.

Either way is fine with me, but I will not do a prolonged email exchange / interview without gaining some contempt for the situation.

Life is to be lived, not speculated about!!!
