I'm pretty lighthearted most of the time and enjoy being active, including traveling, working out, hiking, playing sports, etc. I'm vegetarian but I don't fit the stereotype -- I'm not a yogi or hippie (but it's fine if you are). I'm an athlete and sports fan, but I'm also intellectual. I'm a leader and a bit of an alpha, but I'm also kind and affectionate. Humor and being playful is very important to me, but I can also be serious when necessary. I strive to strike a balance between these varied attributes.

I generally think that society's relationship priorities are out of whack. Guys are out there chasing the prettiest face they can find, while it seems that a substantial number of women covet men that meet their standards for money/status. Don't get me wrong, attraction and financial stability are valid considerations. But it seems like a problem when they are prioritized above everything else. For me personally, chemistry and compatibility are far more important. There certainly has to be physical attraction. But given the choice between a cutie with whom I have great chemistry, and a supermodel with whom I don't - I'd happily choose the cutie. As a side note, I'm educated, have a good job, and I'm ambitious. But these things don't define me. I'd put family happiness ahead of career success any day.

A few things that I've done/experienced that gave me good stories to tell include: getting on the wrong plane, driving through a tornado in the Midwest, getting extorted by a cop in Michigan, playing in a regional basketball tournament in Boston, kickboxing in Thailand, barely surviving a storm in the Gulf of Thailand, going to Times Square for New Years but missing the ball drop, chasing a shoplifter but almost getting arrested myself, and my all-out battle with a bat (of the winged variety). I generally prefer to do my storytelling in person. But if we ever meet, and you want to hear a good story, ask me about any of these. Oh yeah, and don't forget to ask about my date with Angelina Jolie.



Note: I'm a very good athlete and generally exercise every day. However, I've been rehabbing a couple injuries, so I've been forced to stay away from sports and the gym for a few months (doctor's orders). So, in the interest of full disclosure, I recently switched my body type to "average."

It depends on the person. Of course the traditional coffee or dinner date would be fine. I'd also be down for an activity that allows us to talk more informally, such as shooting pool, playing mini golf, going for a hike, or checking out the zoo/aquarium.

If you are vegetarian/vegan, or at least veggie-friendly, then that's obviously a great start. If you spend enough time with me, I guarantee two things: (1) I'll make you laugh; and (2) I'll make you think. Hopefully more of number 1, though ;-) Humor is very important to me - I can joke about anything - so having a playful spirit is a must. I also have a thirst to travel the world, so I appreciate adventurous people. Of course there are any number of traits I could list here, but so much of it boils down to chemistry. So if my profile interests you in any way, I encourage you to say hi, and we'll take it from there.
