Im that guy downtown with a megaphone talking to strangers accross the street. For no good reason, thats just how friendly I am. Someone gave me a megaphone, brave **stard.

My name is Tom and recently moved here to beautiful seattle. I live In a nice empty little apartment downtown by the needle, and honestly, my reason for picking this neighborhood has alot to do with being right down the street from easystreet records and silver platters. I really am wildly in love with music. For me it is something that should be discussed, dissected and appreciated. My taste range wildly, from Damien Rice to the Blood Brothers, Ben folds to alkaline trio, the faint and on and on and on. I can list bands all day, but im sure you get the idea. I really will give most anything one listen. Outside of music, I really enjoy grabbing drinks and just having a discussion (sometimes a debate) with another person who can carry their end. Thats hard to find in the time of fasionistas and really bad movies.

I really enjoy going out and exploring the city and well as getting out of it on road trips, hitting up the local restaurants, diners, sushi bars, and everything in between. Some nights its nice to stay home and watch a movie. I prefer the kind that makes you want to talk about it later, but brain candy is fun too.

Getting out and going camping, hiking, biking and just wandering in the woods is one of my favorite pastimes.

I like to think that I am really laid back, and brimming with useless/useful knowledge. Laughing is a big part of life, if you stop, so does everything else.

Dont be shy, drop me a message if you want to know more or have any questions.

+5 points if you can nail the quote (easy)

Choose life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a ****ing big television, Choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players, and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol and dental insurance. Choose fixed- interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisure wear and matching luggage. Choose a three piece suite on hire purchase in a range of ****ing fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing sprit- crushing game shows, stuffing ****ing junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing you last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, ****ed-up brats you have spawned to replace yourself. Choose your future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that?

First dates should be out somewhere. Talking over dinner is cool, but going out on an adventure is a surefire way to get to know someone. Lets go somewhere neither of us knows, or a concert, or paint ball or some thing that is not just sitting! Perhaps a festival of some sort. We could go to the gallery and play art/not art.

So lets go see a show! or go rafting, or diving, or hiking something out and about.

So why did I do it? I could offer a million answers, all false. The truth is that I'm a bad person, but that's going to change, I'm going to change. This is the last of this sort of thing. I'm cleaning up and I'm moving on, going straight and choosing life. I'm looking forward to it already. I'm going to be just like you: the job, the family, the ****ing big television, the washing machine, the car, the compact disc and electrical tin opener, good health, low cholesterol, dental insurance, mortgage, starter home, leisurewear, luggage, three-piece suite, DIY, game shows, junk food, children, walks in the park, nine to five, good at golf, washing the car, choice of sweaters, family Christmas, indexed pension, tax exemption, clearing the gutters, getting by, looking ahead, to the day you die.
