First off, the baby in the picture is not mine. I rented the kid to make me look sweet and sensitive. It was his idea that I hold the bottle.

I was born and raised in NYC and have lived in Maryland since 1992.

I'm fun-loving--yet responsible--and have an offbeat sense of humor. I love most types of music and tend to be attracted to unconventional/independent thinkers. In my spare time I enjoy listening to music, reading and playing scrabble with my cat. My favorite font is arial, but there is a time and place for helvetica.

You will notice I did not pick a fish personality--as I did not realize fish have personalities. Perhaps the fish that best describes me is a fish stick--although I do like fish nets--just not on me.

Despite this above nonsense, I'm intelligent, financially secure and strive to be genuine, compassionate and unpretentious. I'm interested in finding an intelligent, attractive, spontaneous woman to have some laughs with and see what develops.

I'm not a good match for people who take themselves too seriously, workaholics or anyone who thinks Robin Williams is funny.

I love intelligent conversation, people watching and solving the problems of the world. I dislike complainers, heavy objects falling on my head and not getting responses from my e-mails.
