## Trivia

*Retrieved from abc.com*

**Tattoos?**
No.

**Do you like to go out dancing? If yes, what is your preferred type of dancing?**
No. Unfortunately I am rather shy when it comes to that. I’m pretty good at bobbing my head to the beat while sitting though!

**Describe your idea of the ultimate date?**
I’ve been on dates in a variety of settings but very few of them (if any) had conversation that was stimulating, funny, thought provoking, etc. all rolled into one. I guess what I am saying is its the person I’m with more than the activity of the date that really determines if it is an ultimate date or not.

**Do you prefer a woman who wants to be pursued or a woman who pursues you and why?**
Because I am relatively shy on making that initial contact, I love it when a woman pursues me. It shows confidence and that she’s not your average woman. Hot.

**What is the trait you most dislike in yourself?**
Sometimes I prepare too much for the future and don’t live enough for today when I can enjoy it most. Who knows if I will be here tomorrow!
