Apparently I'm supposed to pimp myself out here. It's been decided that since we haven't been able to give me away thusfar, we might as well try a new approach -- the open meat-market. Don't think I'm stale goods or anything -- I'm 100% Grade A, prime choice Man. (And if you can't hear the self-mocking humor in that, you're at the wrong site.) So enough ado about nothing, here's a bit about me:

Basics:
Online nickname: Devinoch
Real name: Cliff Hicks
Location: San Francisco Bay Area (East Bay)
Age: 26
Starsigns: Saggitarius, Year of the Dragon, No Left Turn.

Backstory:
So, a bit of history on me. I was born overseas at a very young age and returned to conquer America at 6 months of age. That done, I set about learning how to eat applesauce without dribbling it on myself and how to conquer the world with no money down in real estate. Fast forward to me being older. High school in Omaha, NE. College in Lincoln, NE. Graduated with a Bachelor's of Journalism and English in May of 2000. Relocated to the Bay area to work as a videogame journalist. Laid off in Feb. of 2001 (Valentine's Day, no less). Did some freelance writing for a while. Got a job at Westwood in Vegas in May of 2001. Worked there until June of 2002, when I left to come back to the Bay area and work at Maxis, where I am now.

Pros:
* Financially stable.
* Hopeless romantic.
* Reasonably intelligent.
* Fairly well-read.
* Sense of humor. (Polls say this is important with women.)
* Somewhat cultured.
* Does nice things for people without reason.
* Entertaining (at least some of the time).

Cons:
* Self-admitted semi-geek.
* Work in the gaming industry.
* A gamer (but not obsessively so).
* Culture junkie.
* Occasional mood swings.
* Small emotional baggage (consider it an emotional carry-on -- it would fit under the seat in front of you)


Anything more you want to know, you're welcome to ask. Send email to TheTouchedBachelor@hotmail.com and I'll be answering emails as we get them. We figured it's something to do, and hell, with sweeps month going on, we need to boost our ratings as much as possible, y'know?
