My interests include music as a fan and listener as well as a musician "drummer"in a jazz quartet and i love to watch NHRA top fuel drag racing and try to attend as many events through out the year as possible and i have re kindled a couple of my childhood interests including fishing recently and have started up a new collection of collectible pocket knives from specific manufacturers which seem to be appreciating in value and i have created a none profit to to train otherwise in eligible participants basic trade skills with an emphasis on urban economic as well as environmental sustainability.i also want a Harley Davidson and a miniature English bull terrier and yes my mid life crisis in firmly intact L.O.L.THANK YOU VERY MUCH!Oh i digress,i am only looking at or admiring Harley's at this point in a Guggenheim museum sort of fashion as works of art and form this American original.It is harder for me to communicate who i am than to express the outer three dimensional things that i do so "who i am" here goes! I am a simple corn fed Minnesota boy who grew up somewhere between an urban and an agrarian lifestyle culturally having old school farm wisdom imparted to me while learning the simple life and at the same time due to the incredible cosmopolitan atmosphere in Minneapolis being lovingly shaped and molded by urban black christian culture intellectually,spiritually,and musically as well which culminated into the very spiritual,loving and affectionate person i am now who recognizes the complex and sophisticated dynamics required to function in this Orwellian 1984 esque society and at the same time spiritually requiring the peace be still in dwelling of that perfect holy spirit and its small still voice in the present moment to be my lives blood and true source of my love ,moral compass,and ever increasing intellectual hunger paradoxically elevating self to transcend my mind and oh what a relief that is so i am also very loyal and others focused and dearly love my oh so complicated and extremely interesting children and am learning how to actually listen which i know i have always appreciated in others so, how did i do on the who am i type of thing that there ?

Strangely enough one my most enjoyable environments for meeting is for breakfast at my favorite out of the way cafe though in general atmosphere is important so a quiet comfortable spot with several lounges in mind, or the restaurant that neither one of us has tried but has heard good things about is some how democratic and at the same time appealing and adventurous for an initial encounter.Your thoughts?
