It's all about family and friends with me. Music and bodybuilding are my two biggest passions in life. I can be the biggest wise guy you'll ever meet, yet if you ask those who know me best they'll tell you I'm one of the most genuine folks out there. I love that people who know anything about me feel comfortable in coming to me with their problems. I see it as a grand irony that the very things that make you tired from thought during the day are the same ones that make you restless at night. I think it should be illegal that I have to spend $50 on a shirt and then another $30 to get it tailored so it fits right. I hate how The Men's Wearhouse insists on selling me a pair of 48 inch waist pants and taking 15 inches out of them just in order to get the same deal when I need a jacket so big. I am constantly told that I'm intimidating in appearance, yet I'm still the same guy who used to let the freshmen in front of him during lunch as a senior, and after 10 minutes of talking you'll see that my brain and heart are 100 times bigger than my physique will ever be. I think it'd be a great idea to make Chivalry 101 a required course in school. I also think that the few legitimately good guys out there shouldn't be penalized for falling into this category..... remember, we're the ones everyone wants to be with in the end. I am very open and honest. I am a big fan of learning, but an even bigger fan of teaching. I often take pleasure in simple things like watching a squirrel look for food, the sound of the ocean and listening to bird calls while I look at the sun setting on dew-laden grass (hard to believe I'm not a poet, right?) I love letting my little nieces and nephews beat me at games, and having extensive conversations with them regarding their favorite nicktoons and blossoming social lives. I consider my toy poodles to be like my children. I was afraid to venture off on my own to college, yet I "forgot" to take my last final just so I could stay for one more semester. I'm as hopeless a romantic as they come; yet lately I am just finding the notion of romance to be hopeless lol.
I believe that there's no greater feeling in all the world than to know that your actions so positively affect another as to move them to tears. I love anything that makes me laugh, but have a much deeper appreciation for those things which make me cry. I still believe in the Golden Rule (for those who don't know what it is.... when applied to sexual situations I believe it'd be called "reciprocation" lol). I think it's funny how most people don't realize that when you give, you actually receive much more. I also think I'm developing a slight case of Carpal Tunnel from writing so much.. so enough about me..... "How YOU doin'?"

Family and friends come first. I love singing and bodybuilding. Other than that: going out on the town (aka releasing "the Dan-imal" ;)haha), volleyball (doubles or triples in the sand is the best!), long talks (aka "being Dr. Phil" lol), attending a capella shows and musicals, listening to music, dancing (if it's with the right partner), cuddling, rowing, white water rafting, coaching youth soccer, playing with my pups, occasional mall runs, modelling, reading/researching bodybuilding sciences; Also, the notion of scuba diving has been very intriguing lately

I occasionally watch Whose Line is it Anyway, Family Guy, Friends, The Cosby Show, the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, The Wonder Years, Boy Meets World (NO, I DON'T have a crush on the Savage brothers! haha) sports, Sportscenter, all sorts of random shows on the Discovery Channel or the History Channel. I'm also trying to make time for Grey's Anatomy. Oh, and cartoons. I LOVE cartoons.... am still a kid at heart! Really though, I haven't gotten to watch TV much at all since starting the micro job :( haha
Books:
I suppose I wouldn't really connect with too many people here if I started listing things like "Clinical Endocrinology, Third Edition" haha. I miss some of the classics like Watership Down, Brave New World, 1984, The Aeneid, Oedipus, The Hobbit, Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, Don Quijote, Antigone, the Bible and the DaVinci Code. I also read any and everything I can get my hands on regarding the topics of starting an online business, web design and the like.
