I am honest, loyal, and house broken.
My Self-Summary
I am interested in meeting someone that I have some things in
common with although I don't think an identical twin would work. I
would love a partner that challenges me to reach my highest
potential as I challenge her. She is aware of both her assets and
her liabilities and able to accept mine as I accept hers. We can
laugh at each as easily as we laugh at ourselves.
What I’m doing with my life
Currently I am teaching kayaking], building kayaks and designing]
products for the outdoor industry. I also represent three different
companies both here and in the UK. This keeps me on the go both
here and in Europe. Of course, this also allows me to set my own
schedule to include time for [paddling],
bike riding and hanging out with
friends. I am currently in the process of applying for two patents
of of innovations that I have developed. Very interesting process
of how creativity runs into Bureaucracy. It takes 2-3 years for an
new idea to become approved by examiners.
I’m really good at
I used to be good at a lot of things and I can still keep up with
the younger ones at some things. In my time I have been reasonably
competent at
sewing,
playing drums,
motorcycling,
skiing. I still have a sense of
curiosity about many things although I don't take foolish risks as
often. I am also good at seeing the funny side of just about any
issue.
I spent 15 years building houses and cabinets and still enjoy
working with wood. Currently I have revived my love of woodworking
by building Greenland style kayak paddles with Western Red Cedar.
The first things people usually notice about me
I am not sure, but alot of times I remind people of someone so I
must have that generic look about me. I have had people actually
swear that I was related to one of their friends.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
I read all kinds of things, but rarely reread fiction so I can't
think of any favorites at the moment although I am a big Bill
Bryson fan.
Some of my favorite movies include " My Cousin Vinny", "American
Pie", "Best in Show", "This is Spinal Tap" etc... and my favorite
genre has got to be comedy first and Sci Fi/futuristic second. I am
not big on Cops and robber movies although I have enjoyed just
about everything Clint Eastwood has done.
I was a big Led Zepplin fan and still get shivers hearing Jon
Bonham doing "Moby Dick". Right now I think Hip Hop is the only
real thing happening in music and "new country" is even more
simplistic and boring than "old country".
The six things I could never do without
kayak. paddle. computer. beer. motorcycle. sewing machine.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Different ways to look at things. The rate at which the earth is
being trashed by human behavior. The suffering that Religion has
caused and continues to cause to humans. The amount of potential
that each person possesses. The unending suprizes that the natural
world has created.
On a typical Friday night I am
Getting ready for the weekend or recovering from the week.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I leave the seat up occasionally.
You should message me if
You have a great sense of humor, are based in reality, like to wear
sexy undies under your blue jeans, don't smoke, don't mistreat the
earth, and believe that all living things have great potential. Oh,
and don't take yourself too seriously.
