Here are seven things about me:1. I am working on a novel in science fiction.2.) My Ph.D. is in biochemistry. It was a fun five year challenge to get it. It's fun to know that I am in the top 1% of the US population that has such a degree.3.) My taste in music is classical, early 90's pop, enya, industrial-- My music helps psych me up for purposes of creativity.4.) My career path has taken a curve ball. I am currently teaching general chemistry as an adjunct faculty member while I am taking biotech courses. My five year track plan is to get into mid-level science position, and then get into bioreactors where chemical batches grow cells. I want to be the head guy who oversees such an entire operation. Those positions make from ***K to ***K. St. Louis is a biotech town, but I may have to post- For the moment I am in St. Louis, but I am thinking of moving in the next year or so. It would be fun to meet someone before I became successful. Probably a long shot to meet the right woman this way, but I would know I am not being treated like an ATM. 5.) I was told in graduate student when I was working on my first masters by my first thesis advisor, "Have you ever ffing decided a career outside of chemistry?" Ten years later, I got my PhD. I don't give up on my dreams. Neither should you.6.) I do date women of different races, and I do date women with children. I am not much into BBW women. Sorry, just my preference for average women, and I am a sucker for blondes.7.) I am a non-practicing Catholic. I believe in evolution. Why shouldn't I since I am a biochemist? Science is not in the business to prove God. Science is out understand nature.Here's some pointers to more of the mundane profiles I've seen:1.) Don't talk about hating liars and cheaters. This should be a no-brainer. People who are dishonest are not going to tell you the truth from the beginning.2.) Don't talk about how busy you are with two or three jobs. It looks like you're not putting effort into the dating scene.3.) Don't talk about how lame all the men are. People put effort into dating, just like anyone else.4.) Do talk about what makes you successful and stands out.5.) Do talk about what you like to do for fun. If you don't put into your profile, how am I supposed to know?6.) Dating is a numbers game. You have to put the effort into it to see.7.) Take the time to respond back, even if it's a no thank you. How am I supposed to improve in my communication if I don't get feedback? Anybody up for coffee, the St. Louis art museum, or a picnic? "The Master said: The humane man is not a tool." --Confucius, The Analects

What to say?..........Well I suppose that I'm just your average 'nice guy'. (Now don't sound too surprised at that. There's still a few of us left!).I'd like to think that I could be described as kind, friendly, fun, honest, adventurous, practical, optimistic, open minded, caring, considerate, easy going, articulate, confident and laid-back. Oh, and house trained! I'm reasonably intelligent without being a complete anorak and I do have my occasional moments of stunning wit and dazzling charm (which unfortunately are usually offset by the moments of utter confusion and bewilderment!).I guess that I'm looking for someone with a similar outlook on life, someone who knows how to relax and enjoy themselves, but who can also be that little bit more sensible when needed. Someone who faces whatever life throws at them with a smile. Someone laid-back, but not lazy, mature but still prone to the occasional random act of silliness!Someone who enjoys an intelligent conversation once in a while, as well as those times when you just can't get up from the floor from laughing so hard! Hopefully someone who shares my love of the outdoors, but is equally happy with a movie, sofa and a takeaway.Unfortunately though it seems that a lot of people on here have a slightly different definition of 'genuine' than I do (and seemingly the dictionary!). It would be a pleasant surprise for someone to prove me wrong!Of course there's loads more to say, so if you'd like to know anything else....just ask! Guess that depends. Always good to meet for a hot chocolate (I don't drink coffee!) or maybe a drink first and see how the conversation flows.It would be nice spending some time getting to know someone and if the chemistry's there......who knows?

About me...I love riding my Harley and spending time at the gym. I'm past the stage in life where I need to try impressing a woman; but I'll still try if you don't mind. Either take me for what I am or don't. I'm very blunt. (sometimes too much). I work a lot but I also like to make time for fun. I'd rather shop at a small mom and pop store than somewhere like Walmart. BBQs are my favorite type of meal and I have no problem seeing a movie alone. Ask me more please. Just don't ask me to jump out of an airplane with you for fun. (I'll watch you do it while I stay in my seat).About you...You have to like spending some time doing things I like too. It can't be all about you. I don't want you to clean my house or cook my meals because I'm already set in that area. Well, mostly. I'm not a very good cook. Basically you just can't be a slob and mess up all my stuff. I don't ask much out of a woman. Just be as honest with me as I am with you. Don't be afraid of me. At the very least I can always use more friends. Cheers! Just getting to know you. Talking over drinks maybe. Walking on the beach maybe. Just getting to know you. Of course anything to do with ice cream would be fun too. :)
