....is the title of Cheap Trick's excellent new CD, which I highly recommend! I'm behind in updating my picture to show that I'm not in much better shape. A healthy lifestyle is a priority of mine. I have a yearly pass to the Rock Hall and enjoy catching an occasional dinner and concert at the House of Blues. My favorite older groups are the Beatles, Cheap Trick and Queen. As for newer music, I like Maroon 5. Not a big movie buff but I enjoy romantic comedies. I enjoy shows on the Food Network and Travel Channel and Survivor, America's Got Talent, Big Brother, etc.

My only child is a young adult who has never given me any trouble. We have a quiet household with two beautiful cats. We've had dogs in the past. Cats are easier when you like to travel like we do. I want to be on my own schedule not a dog's. I enjoy watching the Cavs and even the Indians, although this season is a major disappointment. I'm looking for a man who is stable and responsible like myself, who drives and works. Times are tough and many are unemployed but I wouldn't be doing myself a favor to be "looking" for someone in that situation. I own a home in a nice area on the west side of Cleveland.

I like a man who is easygoing and can make me laugh, not one who tries to boss me around. If you're the demanding type, or have a superiority complex, you should look elsewhere. I know myself well and will not be pushed into anything. I will respect your privacy and expect the same consideration in return. People close to me find me to be a good listener and know I will keep their confidence. I'm also known to have a great sense of humor. An occasional drink is fun but I usually stop after one. I'm not on here to play games and I don't have a bad temper. If you have a short fuse please pass me by, as I don't want to be involved with someone who is violent or jealous. I'm also not interested in atheists or anyone who mocks Christians.

I'm down to earth, thoughtful, and have no hidden agendas. I've been alone for a long time but I'm far from desperate. On the contrary, I'm not looking to jump into something serious right off the bat and will not rush into commitments. If we don't hit it off then no harm, no foul. We can either just be friends or part ways amicably.

I'm open to suggestions.
