Hello to all. I like most outdoor activities. My interests are sports, hot rods, tattoos, my motorcycles and my boat. I am fun to be around (just ask my dog), intelligent and have a great sense of humor (perhaps I'm just a bit biased?)...
I like to have fun and be with people who like to have fun. I like to work out and I like all kinds of music (60's, 70's and 80's mostly...). I also like Nickelback, 3 Doors Down, Buckcherry, etc, etc, etc... and don't mind looking like a goof on the dance floor from time to time. I like movies, good food and having great conversation. I rarely complain and I AM house-broken (well, most of the time). Heck, I can even cook.

I am currently working full time and pursuing my education further. Finishing up my Master's Degree, digging into another Bachelor's and trying to get my teaching credentials; and then, seeing where I go from there.

Also, I'm trying to lower my handicap on the golf course (I'm getting better everyday) and I'm fishing as much as I can.

Things I'm really good at are making people laugh, multi-tasking and meeting people who can't carry on an intelligent conversation (trying to break that last one).

I'm also a heckuva fisherman, a decent driver and one helluva model American!!!...... and I also give badass tattoos...

Anything else comes to mind, I'll have to mention another time.

The first thing people notice about me would probably be my eye contact.

Maybe it's the fact that I have a mouthful of teeth? (Kind of an important factor, as Ive been told; especially down here in the South).

If it's not my eye contact or a mouthful of teeth then, it must be the fact that I smell pretty good. Other than that, I wouldn't have the first clue.

I like the classics: Mark Twain, Dickens, Poe, Verne, Dumas, Cooper, Stevenson and anything by Bill Shakespeare. I like books on history (foreign and domestic) As well as lesson learned books on Military Events.

My favorite movies are The Bournes, westerns, old Burt Reynolds movies, and most anything by National Lampoon. The Usual Suspects, Reservoir Dogs and The Departed. I'm a CSI and Law and Order fan and love the cult classics.

My favorite music ranges from Country (Old and New), to Rock & Roll (i love the 60's, 70's and 80's). I jam on rockabilly and psychobilly music every once in a while and I dig Jazz and Classical. I even have a working knowledge of "rhythm" (I can cut a rug and carry a tune in a bucket... without spilling too much)...wink.

My favorite foods are Italian, Mexican, Korean, and of course, Americana (Steak, burgers, BBQ, etc...).

Six things I couldn't do without: That would probably be......

My Dog
Humor
Exercise
My Watch
a good leather wallet
...and some "foldin' money" (as papa used to call it)

Possibly milk, golden grahams, oatmeal and chilli. Oh, and a good pair of running shoes (If I can have a few extras).

What I'm going to do next. (Preferably something that isn't illegal, immoral or fattening)... but then again, I AM open for a good time.

Also, what is that that my dog is chewing on? And what the hell did the dryer do with my other sock? That was a new pair!!!

And why in the heck does my dog use the fact that he is neutered as a method of birth control? I swear he has a one track mind...LOL. Although, there is a really cute Spaniel down the road... LOL.

BBQ-ing, enjoying life or relaxing from a hard week's work. (It's when I can get a "willing" crowd to entertain with my guitar but then again, maybe it's the free beer...). I don't do the club scene [much] however, I don't mind getting out and looking like a goof on the dance floor (as I have mentioned above) from time to time. I do like going out though. I'll go on road trips on my bike (motorcycle... not Schwinn or huffy) or out to a pub and have a beer or two and play some pool or darts. I like going to shows (comedy corner type), the theatre (yes, the live performance place) and the movies and I've even been to the opera a few times. Otherwise, I am relaxing at home listening to music and running my dog ragged. (He likes to sing and dance too)...Really. He's quite good. You ought to see him shake it up... he digs on Elvis and Iggy Pop... we have our routine down and everything. It'll probably be posted on youtube soon.

I sing in the shower (but, only when I'm doing the Chicken Dance). I'm actually pretty good... Lol.

Another thing, I have an uncanny ability to meet the women with lots of issues. Either an ex (husband/boyfriend) who hit them or cheated on them or maybe they just lost their job or some other atrocity that turns them into man-haters. I really try to avoid these people. If this reminds you of someone close or if you take offense to this, then by all means, just pass me by. It may be you to which I am referring. -Keep in mind, everyone has issues, problems, trials and tribulations that they have had to deal with and endure. There is no need in bringing them into a potential good relationship and messing up a good thing before it even gets under way.

Anything else, you'll just have to ask.

1. You should message me if you want to get to know a great guy who isn't a 20 year old play station generation kid with no life experience or goals. (Pac Man or older...)...

2. If you are not looking for someone in a "boy band" or from the "hood".
a. I am fun, confident and intelligent and would like to find a woman who is the same or at least similar.
b. I don't get "intimidated" by women and I am not shy (not being shy hasn't always been a positive thing).

3. If you are not a snob. Snobby people are just ugly (inside and out). If you are a snob (or a man-hater) then you need not apply.

4. If you could dig on sitting out at the lake and drinking an ice cold drink while listening to Stevie Ray Vaughn (if you don't know who he is, you might be too young).

5. Or, if you just want to chat and think we might have something in common. We can see where we go from there.
