About Me
Here we go again! I tried dating someone exclusively and that didn't work, so I scrapped the idea of internet dating. Tryin this again because it doesn't look like God is going to drop a good woman through the roof of my custom guitar shop (and she'd probably break my neck in the fall).I'm direct, honest, sincere, funny, intense, intelligent (except about women), and always thinking. I raised my two oldest daughters singularly for 7 years and they are wonderful adults. Survived cancer in ***and have a job that I love (so you won't hear me complain about work). I have all the free time that I need when I need it but tend to work 60 hours a week to keep myself occupied. All of that I've done by myself, a partner in crime would be great. I've parachuted, saturation dived, blown up everything known to man, and all those I consider safe compared to internet dating!Spending time with my 3 daughters and granddaughter is important to me.. They are still the most important people in my life. Going to be a grandpa again early in ***and think that just rocks! I have many interests: guitars, motorcycles (you can do everything on a bike just short of conception), guns, old hot rods, baseball, music, good books, road trips, sailing, horseback riding, surfiing, my morning workout & meditation,repelling, bad guitar Thursdays (lots of marginal Jimmy Pages &I have this huge bucket list to work on and I'm just looking for one good woman that GET'S IT.;Stairway to Heaven" exactly right!What I've learned about internet dating in 90 days:a) Have you ever looked at your "matches" on this site? I look at it sometimes and think, huh? I can only assume there are 2 criteria for a match, you are a female and breathing!b) Any photo will work! You don't need to have a recent one. Just pick your favorite photo of youreself. In can be a Polaroid from 25 years ago, just as long as it makes you happy!c) In the days of camera phones, cheap video recorders, etc. almost no one has any real friends to take their photos. Hence, everyone has to post a profile pic of themselves standing in front of the bathroom mirror.d) The body size "Average" encompasses everything from small to a sub compact car. Talk about a wide range, its like defining the word normal. All sizes should be listed in inches and pounds. Men's minds work that way! What do you mean a woman's size "7" if you are 5'1" isn't the same as a woman's size "7" at 5'10". Who the hell came up with that system?e) Over 50% of the profiles contain "wine tasting, red wine, or just wine" as an interest. Are you kidding me? Personally, I prefer whiskey (it is the most refined of all spirits). I don't put it down as an interest. I'll bet the guy living under the overpass, that wears the rain coat, and carries the brown paper bag around would list wine tasting as an interest too!f) A woman that doesn't like motorcycles will actually message a man that lists motorcycles as an interest, has several photos of motorcycles in his profile. She will chat with that man for the better part of a week and then tell him continuing any communication wouldn't work because she doesn't like motorcycles? DUH?g) Internet dating is the modern day version of "Let's Make a Deal". You remember the original version with Monty Hall as the host (crap, am I dating myself or what?). A woman will blow up your inbox with messages, text you, call you for several days. Then one day, "POOF" You were traded for the man in the big box with the red bow or what's behind door # 3.h) Meeting? You mean we actually have to do that at some time? I thought this was going to be like that scene from the movie Demolition Man.i) There should be an added catagory for, "I don't want to date. I just want to piss off the person that I've been dating for years to get a little more attention."j) Shopping as an interest? Yeah, men get that! NOT! Men know the location of a hardware store, sporting goods, some of the aisles in a grocery store, and if he owns a bike, the nearest Harley dealership. We don't get shopping but we know it happens. Sort of like us (men) burping and fondling the TV remote. Do we need to list those?k) And NO, texting is not a form of conducting a relationship. Its purpose is for "Can you pick up a gallon of milk & a dozen eggs on the way home?" GEEZ, sometimes the wonders of modern technology diminish social interaction! Dinner, a drink, casual conversation. That's the norm, isn't it? This time of year I'd prefer a motorcycle trip north. A bad day riding is better than a good day at work!
