I love to eat - to quote an old version of the "View Askew Productions" business card - I'll put anything in my mouth. I love awesome and well constructed denim. I like dining at restaurants big and small, cheap and expensive. I love the Sunset Marquis but my favorite place to stay is in Los Feliz. I love the Bengies Drive-in Theatre. I wear my timepiece in the shower. I love my wife and kids. I love ladies who love Anthropologie and Christian Louboutin (It's the heel height and the red sole, man.) I love awesome kitchens and cooking in them. Give me a good chef knife, some shallots, a microplane and some good meat and I'll turn it into something awesome. I love meeting friends for breakfast at The Griddle. I love spicy foods. I used to wash and vacuum my car once a week but gave that up when I moved to Jersey. I've run about 10 5K races this year and a couple of 5 mile races - the truth is I hate running and only do these races to get an official time so I can google myself and for all the free stuff they give you at the end. I put hot sauce on almost everything. I am addicted to giving blood. I'm a relatively recent fan of the awesome sport of hockey. People always ask me where I'm from and I can never really give a straight answer. Places I have lived and grown up: 1) Ohio 2) Bellflower, CA 3) Chicago, IL 4) Jackson, MI 5) South Bend, IN 6) Ann Arbor, MI 7) Falls Church, VA 8) Rockville and Silver Spring, MD 9) Los Angeles, CA 10) Columbus, OH 11) Red Bank, NJ
