patient, extroverted

I love to tell jokes/stories and will always interject my thoughts to the table. I am a counter-culture(60s) history buff and whenever I do catch Jeopardy I always manage to answer one question the contestants miss. I love music and have an extensive collection. My interests are: electronic music, film, movie soundtracks, performing soundtracks, creating videos. I have long been associated with the los angeles music scene. Comedy also interests me and I am a member of a local puppet emsemble. I enjoy creative individuals who are without the usual pretentiousness. My musical tastes run the gamut from obscure British 60s (Wimple Winch, Os Mutantes) to Bernard Hermann/Henry Mancini film scores to 70/80s Joy Division/Vibrators and everything in between. Some favorite literature:

Your ideal partner and the qualities you are looking for:-
I am looking for the following: A strong feminine woman. One that knows what she wants and gets it without the drama. Who is willing to challenge me creatively and intellectually. Who is not a push over (a little stubborn is just fine). Self assured, creative, able to laugh at themselves and cry with others. A woman who is comfortable in any situation. Who is willing to challenge me both creatively and intellectually. She must be able to succumb to a passion driven latino. I may not appear the type but I treat women with old fashioned respect (open doors, stand when a lady enters a room, etc.)
