- In my own words:
-
I'm often taken for the young Brad Pitt, but I'm soon judged more manly. I'm part aging hipster, part bookish INTJ and part rimshot comic. I like arty film, serious fiction, ethnic food, blues and jazz. Far too much detail follows.
If any of that makes me sound too sensitive for my own good, I also run regularly, play blues guitar, hold a pilot's license and a belt in Brazilian jiu jitsu.
What follows comes from my profile on OKCupid. It's been updated a couple of times. But you'll get the idea.
Books:
Money. Trainspotting. White Noise. White Teeth. Cheever. This year's local library book sale yielded a bagful of Jane Austen, M.F.K. Fisher, Joyce Carol Oates, and the usual dead white guys, all for five bucks.
Film:
I came of age, if not maturity, to Antonioni, Godard, Truffaut, Bunuel, Fellini et al. Some of my faves include Citizen Kane, Red Desert, Weekend, Dr. Strangelove, Last Year at Marienbad, Trois Couleurs: Bleu, Happiness, Requiem for a Dream, Requiem for a Sw...I mean Black Swan.
TV:
I watch it. Used with precision it offers up the likes of Jeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles, The Boondocks and Bullwinkle. Used indiscriminately it drives the moral equivalent of an icepick into your temporal lobe.
Music:
T-Bone, Albert, B.B., Miles, Coltrane. Most jazz guitarists. In fact, most jazz. I wanted to name my daughter after Hound Dog Taylor. She's forgiven me. Frank Zappa was my John Lennon. Becker and ****en are my Steely Dan, although I think something here thinks Donald's last name is homophobic. It keeps spelling the first part of his name ****. Try it yourself. I also like surf, fuzz and Farfisa (OK, Vox, too) bands, rockabilly, country blues, organ trios, free jazz, punk-yeah punk, Nirvana, the North Mississippi Allstars, Stravinsky, Ray Charles, Mose Allison, non-Disney Randy Newman, and Warren Zevon. Swan Lake, chestnut though it may be, reduced me to jelly long before Black Swan.
Food:
I celebrate the first day of Vidalia onion season. I'm a near vegetarian who could live on red meat and a virtual non-drinker with a deep fondness for Wild Turkey. I love litmus test cuisines like Indian, Vietnamese, sushi and sashimi.
Caveat:
I'm culturally Jewish, spiritually quite out-to-lunch, and thoroughly content. Disagree? May the object of your devotion smile on you. But you'll be happier with someone else.
Contact me if:
You're a Victoria's Secret model adept at artisanal pizza.
You're smart as hell.
You'll never confuse me with either a knight or a white horse.
You only walk along the beach at sunset if:
1. You're wearing a little black dress, although you're equally comfortable in jeans.
2. You're sipping from a glass that's half-full of lemonade you made when life handed you a packet of powdered drink mix.
3. You collect medical waste.
You don't want to dress, mommy, convert, or save me.
Anyway, best of luck in the great singles bar of life.
