"Risk everything for love if you are truly human. Otherwise, leave this gathering." -RumiWriting about myself is difficult, but required, so here's my brief ramble. ~~I feel that the focused pursuit of end results alone leads to unhappiness. For me, happiness comes through the process of getting where I'm going. Sharing that experience with a partner, and taking part in their journey, makes the experience more meaningful. ~~I am a sane and loving person who connects well with others. I value friends and family and animals. I'm politically left of center and that is reflected in my work as a business owner, filmmaker, teacher, writer, and musician. I try to walk a fine line between being non-judgemental and making the decisions I must in order to get through each day. ~~I am an educated person with two masters degrees. As a musician I have performed with orchestras, sang backup with the Carpenters for 5 years (I was very young at the time), gigged with numerous bands and scored hundreds of films and TV shows. My graduate degrees are in film and I currently make my living as a producer/director/writer and university professor and department chair. I am fortunate to make a living doing what I love to do. ~~My musical tastes are diverse; I appreciate every style. Rock, pop, jazz, classical, blues and alt country have a place in my heart. ~~I love great comedy and worship humor. I have a personal prescription that requires an hour of humor every day. ~~I am spiritually tuned to the world but non-dogmatic. I am a panentheist whose beliefs are most closely reflected by Taoism but am comfortable with many traditions. I believe honesty is truly the best policy--nobody was ever caught telling a truth. Rumi's advice was to risk everything for love. That appears to be the main reason we are here--to love and be loved. From my experience, relationships must have three elements to succeed: intimacy, commitment and passion. If any of these is missing, it just won't work. Having these parts in place is only one step. Balancing them with the needs and interests of the individuals and, at the same time, creating an environment that allows the main three to grow and evolve over time--well, that's the trick, isn't it? I believe it can be done. The binders that hold it all together are humor, openness, honesty and acceptance. I think we all want the same thing; to adore someone and be adored in return. A good relationship is worth working and persevering for. Finally, I hate coathangers; they tangle, hide out behind the dryer and mock me.Well, it appears that I am surprisingly capable of writing on and on about myself. I'll close by saying that if larger portions of the above ramble describe you, then there is a chance we could ramble together.WARNING: Any *** individuals using this site or any of its associated sites for studies or projects-you DO NOT have permission to use any of my profile nor my pictures in any capacity both current and future.

Hobbies, well since I have a sailboat, I guess that's an automatic hobby. Some might say a commitment. I'm sure I would enjoy all hobbies with the right person. Vegas was one of my favorite place to come too. Now that I live here, I haven't been to the strip once. Anyone want to take me? Well, Vegas was short lived, never made it to the strip. But I met some nice people along the way. We've noticed that it's as hot here as in Vegas. But as long as the A/C is working, we can handle it. lol Now if I can just make it down to that River Walk, anyone want to meet for a drink. There's so many options. Coffee, drinks, a hike, bowling, Biking, tennis, Driving range, Dog park, anywhere. Good luck.

I would call myself well read and traveled. When I can I enjoy skiing, scuba diving, home improvement projects and hanging with my dog. He keeps telling me we need another friend in the mix, so here I am. I am looking to grow my business, to allow me more time to play and enjoy life. I am a rock and roll fan, but really enjoy progressive jazz as well. Am open to trying new things and adventures when I can. Stay healthy, and go to the gym, but fanatical about it. Don't have time or desire for drama. Something casual,where we can talk, relax, and find out if there is any compatibility right from the start, so as not to waste each others time. If we find there is chemistry, then we order dinner, a nice bottle of red, and a great evening.....
