Like most people to put me in a nutshell is a difficult task... mostly because that would have to be a ridiculously huge shell.

On one side, I am an intelligent man with two degrees, who enjoys discussing anything as long as it remains a discussion and not just turn taking with talking points. I enjoy being right, but I enjoy it more when someone can show me a new perspective I hadn't considered. A deft tongue and a clever mind are always incredibly to attractive.

On the other side I still like to enjoy the crazier side of life. I love road trips with great music. And by great music I mean anything BUT country. Particular favourites would be a blend of R&B, Punk and 80's rock. I'm up for anything I haven't tried before, ESPECIALLY if it freightens me. I think that fears are just challenges you create yourself. So go DO IT!

Beyond that, am a regular guy that is definitely overweight, so if that's an issue, no worries. just means we're not a match. I'm sure it's my loss. In the mean time I am loving hitting the gym every day. Getting stronger and healthier by the day and would love to have someone to join me. Maybe even give me just a little extra motivation. Be nice to be able to look at one girl in the gym without feeling like a skeeze. *head down, eyes closed...keep repeating that as you run* *sigh*

Also I recently discovered that being a vegetarian is pretty darn cool! Mix that with abandoning Alcohol and even the occasional fine tobacco product, am enjoying how different things are. By the by, I could care less if you drink sociably or enjoy a steak. But Smoking is a deal breaker for me.

Is that enough to understand the Tao of Me?

How does hitting the mall for some frozen yogurt, sitting on a bench and discussing theories on the backgrounds of passers by. Winner gets to decide on the movie.

You have any ideas? Am new here after all. Whatever's clever
