If you could have a dinner party and invite any 4 people, dead or alive, who'd be coming? Leonard Bernstein, Stephen Hawkins, Barbra Streisand, Colin Firth

Three things I want from my ideal mate are: The ability and wish to communicate openly and honestly; trustworthiness; unafraid to be loved.

One thing people are surprised to find out about me is: That I haven't dated much. I've had two very long LTR's so the "Dating Game" is new to me and makes me a li'l jumpy to tell truth. But, if I want someone to share my life and love with, I'm gonna take this chance.

If you are about to enter a room full of total strangers, what song would you want played to accompany your entrance? "What are You doing the Rest of Your Life?"

One movie everyone should see is: "Billy Elliot"

I consider myself an open-minded person, but my deal breakers are immediate sex and public demonstrativity (sp?)

Design your ideal mate: the brain of Leonard Bernstein and the body of Keanu Reeves

If you have a pet, it better not be a ferret

The first section I turn to in the Valley Advocate is News of the Weird

The quickest way to my heart is attentiveness The quickest way to my bed is kissing And in the morning, I like my eggs cooked any way

It's Sunday morning at 10 a.m. If I'm not still sleeping, I'm watching Meet the Press

The best part of living in the Valley is nearness to the Berkshires

I wouldn't be who I am if I didn't have a spiritual practice

I wouldn't sell my Mom for a billion dollars.

When I was a kid, I actually owned a G.I. Joe

My guiltiest pleasure is eating ice cream

My biggest pet peeve is people who talk in the cinema/people who don't use traffic signals

Something I learned from the last person I dated was all is impermanent

My idea of a great date is dinner, movie, cuddling

I couldn't live without air conditioning

My pictures(s) reveal that I am handsome

If I had one day left to live, I would contact everyone I love and thank them for being such an important part of my life.
