Metro is a captivating, intoxicating individual. Around Metro, birds suddenly appear, and choruses of angels sing hymns to Metro's bonny face. Sadly, unless Metro tells you more about Metro, this is all you'll ever know about Metro. (***The default write-up got it about right, so I'll just leave it in place )

But seriously, you may have seen me on CNN, protesting the World Bank & IMF, or read all about me (with foto!) in the Society section of the newspaper. Maybe you've heard me play piano on the radio, or had beers with me at the racetrack. Maybe you have no idea who I am, and would like some bromidic rundown on things I think you want to know and make me sound awesome.

I have some anti-social qualities and I'm a depressive realist, but I do love people, I love life, and I try to always carry a "die trying" sort of optimistic attitude.

You are interesting to me if you're nice. I don't care how hot or brilliant you are if your personality doesn't appeal to me. You might also be interesting to me if you're hot or brilliant, but you have to be nice.

Don't judge me right away - my sarcasm and pithy comments can be hard to take if you don't understand me quite yet.

All that stuff about the birds and angels and my bonny face is true.
