Nothing extraordinary. not politically correct or conservative or liberal simply love to argue politics. Son, 23, will be on the front line again soon (if there is such a thing in IRQ) Stepdaughter had a baby girl, Annamane Rose). Have a thrown away Beagle Dog named Droopy who needs psychological help for separaration anxiety. He is my only bed partner since split up w/ wifey poo in 2000. Tax accountant - Auditor by trade (BS in accounting). Cook Japanese, French, German, American and Continental, just started doing Thai and Mexican will also cook anything that does not eat me first. Restaurant business 8 years, both front and back of house. Separated from wife, will divorce when I get around to it. Humor is a little strange on the punny side w/ shaggy dog stories. (ask your grandfather) do not smoke or drink or do drugs.

I am not uptight, sort of funny, and very friendly

Working so that I may eat. Scouting, camping, with local Troop, etc. Even got a fihing license this year. Going to 12 step program so that I have a life to do with. living somewhat of a monkish existence here in my office. Do go home to sleep and have my nightly dish of ice cream.

what I want to be if the neighbors let me live to grow up!

I am sitting here in my office working on a tax return or something of that nature. If out early go to an AA meeting. Tonight I'm typing this so people don't think I'm an unkown stalker and waiting for my 23 y.o. son to arrive from Ft Lewis at 9:30 AM. Soon to be going overseas again w/his infantry division. Now we can go to the Roji Tea House and go to have sushi. Am also going to teach my 2 month old granddaughter the pleasures of eating sashimi as soon as she stops the mother's milk diet. Also I am listening to my beagle snore but that's every night.

That I am a real live alcoholic, but if you've been reading you already know that, who has been sober 27 years. Yes I still go to "those meetings" sober drunks are generally the funniest people in the world. There are a few dunderheads but probably no larger percentage than in the normal population.
I also consider any day wasted that I don't fall in love at least once. What else is life for!

you want to.

I have tried to provide some of what I call humor along with the correct information. I love the quizzes and I try ro answer everything truthfully but sometimes my answer isn't there. AH! Welll! I deceided to do this since WJ yelled at me for not having anything in my profile. So, there! Pictures will follow as soon as i figure out how to get them from my computer into this site. ...but that's for another time. I assure you that I do not quite look like the bridge guarding troll or an Orc from the 'Trilogy of the Rings' and I do not act like one of Harry Potter's Askiban prison chasers.
