not into: Anything to do with the Green Bay Packers, Detroit Red Wings, University of Michigan, University of Wisconsin, Rangers Football Club, NoDak hockey, other rival teams or any type of sports fairweatherness.
makes me happy: A perfectly poured pint of Guinness, the look on someone's face when I come up with the perfect present, a touch of brilliance from one of my sports teams, thinking back of the time I spent with my Dad before he passed away, sitting in a bar on the Croatian coast talking the day away, big fight weekends, roadtrips, when you are at a sporting event and time stops when something miraculous happens and then starts back up again, making hilarious comments while watching movies with friends, traveling, my viking beard and a lot of other shite.
makes me sad: Parent and Child scenes in movies or books. I think if I saw Field of Dreams again where he plays catch with his Dad I would start a new lake in Minnesota with my tears.
The Vikings being stuck in a losing circle because of Norse Mythology and general Minnesota sports masochism.

5 things i can't live without: Friends, Family, Conversation, Sports and zie Internet.
vices: Sports, Beer, Cigars, Liquor and a filthy mouth.
thoughts on sg: It's okay
i spend most of my free time: Watching sports, playing video games, reading or watching films and trying to unpack the legion of boxes I have in my new place. This is going to take ages.
Oh, and growing my beard.
occupation: Secretary of Beardland Security, Peppermint Prospector, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry Groundskeeper, Viking and Lumberjack.
current crush: Alizée, Anita Dujić, Blanka Vlašić, Gina Carano, Jessica Nigri, Nicky Whelan and the rest TBD.
stats: 6'7 and I'm a cross between a Viking, Paul Bunyan, Yukon Cornelius and Hagrid.
Or you could go with my Mom's description "I always tell people he fills up an entire doorway".
That's how we build them in my family.
body mods: Bear paws. Insane beard (when I'm not being told to cut it). Eyes of Blue. Scars, inside and out.
heroes: My Dad, my Mom and Kirby Puckett.
gets me hot: Sunny weather, indoor heating. I'm a human furnace, I like it cold.
favorite position: Lock Forward, Ruckman, Batsman, Center Back, Defensive tackle, first baseman....wait a minute....
fantasy: Overcoming obstacles so I can live my life how I want to, and to have a pro boxing fight.
Then it has to be getting the fuck back to Europe. It's been too long.
Either that or Japan, so I can take hysterical pictures of me not fitting anywhere.
sign: Cancer. Let's just hope that's not foreshadowing.
most humbling moment: My father passing away when I was only six. I had six wonderful years, and a lot of people can't say that, so I consider myself lucky.
My Mom passing away out of the blue in 2012. Came out of nowhere and is now my "time to grow the fuck up" moment.
Orphaned at 27.
i lost my virginity: and then I woke up and it was a Wednesday.
