*•. .•* Welcome to my profile *•. .•*
/.•*•.\ ¸..•¤**¤•., .•¤**¤•.…../.•*•.\
1. Talk about your hobbies. Community service, church, family, faceb00k, shopping, movies, hanging out with my single friends. I just started working part-time for the YMCA which includes a free membership, so I'm getting back into a regular work-out routine after taking a few weeks off. I am not the outdoorsy type and I won't go camping unless it's at the Marriott or fishing unless it's on POF.

I'll watch football, baseball and hockey, but I'm not interested in racing, boxing or wrestling.
2. Talk about your goals/aspirations. My goal is to wake up tomorrow morning. The quizzes I took on Faceb00k say I will get married in July 2013 and I will die in June 2013. A match made in heaven, perhaps?
3. Talk about yourself and what makes you unique. Not only am I funny, I'm funny looking. I'm 46, never married, no kids -- I think this makes me unique. Scare you yet????
4. Your taste in music. No heavy metal or rap. Minimal classical.
I don't have any contact restrictions on my profile because I want all of my friends to be able to reach me. However, if you wanna date me:
You should be within 5 years of my age either way (so generally 41-51).
You do not smoke or use tobacco products (this is not negotiable).
No stupid drunks.
Please be employed (or a lottery winner).
I don't want to see hair coming out of your ears or your nose.
I don't want to see your pit hair (no wife-beater/sleeveless shirts) unless you are mowing my lawn; I don't want to see your butt crack or your belly because your shirt doesn't fit or your pants are too droopy unless we're, ya know..... (in other words, I like a tidy appearance).
You should have a kissable mouth (nice teeth/smile).
I'm open to dating men of any race; however, you should be a U.S. citizen and English is your first language. And you know how to spell and use proper grammar.
There's not a big chance I will travel to meet you as my roots are in Kansas City, and I'm not interested in long-distance pen-pals. So if you are beyond a reasonable car ride from KC, I probably won't respond to you. Sorry.
I delete myself from all "favorites" requests.
I don't believe in "friends first". Either there is an attraction and we work slowly towards a dating relationship, or we are just friends. I like having friends.
I am stable (probably to the point of boring):
Same employer for 22 years.
Same house for 16 years.
Same car for 14 years.
Same family (with a few additions and subtractions) for 46 years.

I will not accompany you to an establishment that allows smoking inside.
