I started out building houses for U.S. I got tired of getting laid off during the winter. So I went to the bank and took out enough money to buy a couple of lots. And started my own general contracting firm. I love to spend time on the water, I find it very relaxing. My business has been the shits for the last 4 years. I've built a total of 3 custom homes during the last 4 years. I've got a partner who I'm helping with a ***acre subdivision. We are currently seeking to get a land use permit and zoning to allow a golf course, 42 single family homesites, and a few 2 story condo buildings. I will probably build out half of the sudivision as well as the condos myself. My website is *** I like to be outside. I enjoy riding my bicycle when the weather is good. I also enjoy the lakefront, Bears games, and Navy Pier. I like to listen to music rather than spend a lot of free time in front of the television. I'm a big reader, I read about 2 books per week. I also read an occasional biography, or a current economics book. I HAD A CEREBRAL HEMMORHAGE ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO. After a 4 year rehabilitation stint I relearned how to eat, walk, and speak again. IN FACT, I TURNED OUT BETTER THAN I WAS. I'M STILL INTELLIGENT, GOOD NATURED, EASY GOING, AFFECTIONATE, AND I HAVE A GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR. AFTER BEING DEAD, YOU GET A GREAT APPRECIATION OF LIFE! EVERY MORNING I WAKE UP, LOOK OUTSIDE, AN APPRECIATE ANOTHER CHANCE AT HAVING A GREAT DAY! I DO NOT SEE WELL ENOUGH TO DRIVE. MY DATE HAS TO DRIVE WHEN WE GO OUT. IF WE HAVE BEEN DRINKING, I WILL CALL US A CAR FOR THE RIDE HOME. I know that this is a large drag on a date. And I wish it weren't so. But I don't want to run into a car full of people, just because I'm trying to act as though I'm good to go. Everyone has a good story, if you take the time to listen. I imagine that we would talk about the thing that consume our time. Whether it be our jobs, our families, or our pleasures. I'm sure we would talk about our families, and our children (I assume that just because I have a few kids, everyone will have at least one of their own- which I should not do) We could eat anywhere or anything from Crabs to Chinese to BBQ to Italian to Pizza to Breaded Steak Sandwiches. We could go someplace local. Somewhere it's not too loud to carry on a conversation. And we could try to figure each other out, and sort through our lives. In an attempt to find common ground to start a relationship from.I also like to tailgate and go to the Bears games. My Company used to have 6 season seats, until they hired Lovie. Then it was just too painful to watch every week. So now I see only the games I want to, and watch the balance on the TV. I've got a good friend who has great seats on the 30 yd line, about 25 rows up. The seats are so good, you forget how poorly the season is usually going. This is all sh*t that has screwed them up in the past. It may just happen again!

Now hoooooold on thar, Baba Looey! I'll do the thinnin around here, and doooon't you forget e-it! laid back and easy going, with a slightly wierd SOH. I'm a little rough around the edges and sometimes color outside the lines. my little doggie is one of the coolest things that ever happened to me.I have a late model pick-up truck (paid for!), valid DL, and real good table manners, (thanks, mom!). turns out, I'm pretty good with a paint brush and a cordless drill. and I can whip a fairly tasty meal for myself, and others. so, it seems I'm rather handy around the garage and the kitchen. and other parts of the house, as well .enjoy WMNF concerts, roots- I prefer books and music over TV and movies. I probably won't want to go fishing, camping or to a black-tie affair.. I don't do jealousy or drama.looking for LTR, but let's start by hanging out, and see where it goes.-..- I aspire to one day be the person my doggie already thinks I am....- feel free to shout on my Yahoo IM -Ruffcutt let's meet somewhere for coffee and maybe a snack. I kinda like bookstores. B & N has groovy frozen frappes.

I am seeking, I am striving, I am in it with all my heart. Writing to a stranger in hopes of making a very personal connection. All you have to do is stumble a few times for the whole process to seem flawed and pointless. Don’t give up just yet.Try to think of it differently. Take yourself back a century or so to a time when the written word had a more elegant flair and conveyed a message with meaning. A message that had to resonate for the weeks or months it would take for the next message to arrive. One of the upsides to the electronic age, people are writing again, though not always so eloquently. So pretend to take your pen in hand and send a message in a bottle of sorts. I can’t promise to reply to every note but I will hear what you have to say. Whatever you write will be appreciated. I’m not a romantic fool but I can be romantic with the right chemistry and perfect timing. That’s the real trick, the timing and the chemistry, I’m sure you know, is out of our hands.I don’t think there is just one special person. It’s many people, but timing, geography and luck has to conspire for the right collision to occur. Here's the rough sketch; esthetics, culture, humor, art, travel, good food, engaging conversation, genuine connection, these are the things that make life worthwhile for me. Fitness is also important to me. I stay in shape working out 5 days a week. Though that has become tougher with my latest job.I live and work pretty independently. I enjoy my home in the mountains. I travel plenty for work and more for pleasure. I am professional but my artistic side wishes it could take over. Balance is very important to me. You wouldn’t know it from reading this, but I’m usually rather silly. I’m also dependable, supportive and realistic. To me masculinity is about stepping up, being honorable and helping others when they need a hand.I’d very much like to hear your story but I don‘t want to waste your time either. I’m looking for a woman with style, class and intelligence who appreciates a good conversation. Someone still passionate about life and her future. I wish it didn’t matter to me but you must be attractive, slender and fit. You are independent and really enjoy culture and travel. A love of music and a kind heart are very welcome. This is supposed to be about having fun. So let's see what trouble we can get into together.I think that falling in love is just the beginning. The best relationships involve learning from each other. True partnership only comes if there is respect and a generosity on both sides. I look forward to the surprise of you. Spending time talking in an atmosphere that is conducive to quiet conversation.Eye contact, body language, delicate flirtation, this is the stuff of a memorable first date.
