About Me

People say I'm:

honest, a good listener, naive, too cerebral, gay, cute, funny, sarcastic, a pessimist, too trusting, caring, a great friend, selfish, giving, caring, cuddly, generous, incomprehensible, indescribable, and someone they can't really figure out.
Describe Yourself:

I'm a 30-something year old SINGLE gay man living in Westchester County, NY. I've been couch hopping with various friends for nearly two years now, waiting on my housing to come through. Technically, I'm homeless, although Westchester County's social services department doesn't define me as being such. But I'm (hopefully) about to get my housing--yay--in Yonkers (UGH!)!

I like politics (I'm a Republican), reading, intelligent conversation, music, the arts, and meeting new, intelligent, compassionate people (on or off-line).

You can read more about me on my personal blog http://petercfrank.blogspot.com/ or by reading the content that I post here on Gather.
On Gather, I'm Looking For ...:

Friends, Colleagues, Tea-drinkers, Cool Peeps, Income Opportunities, Snuggle-buddies, etc.

I'm open to whatever other possibilities are out there for me, in terms of people, places, things, events, organizations, aliens, planets, and what not. I'm ready to start Mars Colony, are you?

Hey!
I didn't realize there already was a SUNY group here. I guess mine will fall by the wayside. It's all good - this was my intent (unite SUNY folks).
Hope all's well!!
