I am an electrical engineer living in LA. I am a small town guy and honestly, most of the people I have met in LA just scare the hell out of me, so I am trying something new. I wouldn't say I am actively looking for anyone in particular...just playing this one by ear. I am a very simple guy. I tell it how it is, and that can admittedly get me into some of trouble. I value my family more than anything, and that will never change. You have to get by my dad before you can get to me. Haha, usually the dad protects the daughter, and the mom protects the son. But my mom is way too easy to win over.
I've played sports since I was wee bitty. Mainly hockey, but I've dabbled into everything. I travel around the neighboring states and drag race a few times a year. It is a lot of fun getting out there and BS'ing with all the interesting people in the world. It keeps me sane. In my free time I like to go to the lake and get tossed around in the water, whether it be wakeboarding, jetskiing, or tubing. I used to kneeboard, but I took a pretty crazy fall on that one...so I am just going to stay away from that for a bit. I also like to go snowboarding in the winter, it is a great sport and it gives you plenty of chances to laugh at yourself when some little 9 year old girl shows you up.

Ideally I just want a girl who is cool going to the beach, riding atv's, yet girly enough to be the center of attention when we go out to dinner. She would definitely have to handle my strong personality. I am quiet the smartass and I try and keep as much drama and stress out of my life as possible.
I am not the stuck up type that won't reply to your message. I don't care what you look like, or how many kids you have. We all need a shoulder every now and then.

First date? Hmm dinner or lunch to get to know one another.
I am simple, lets keep the really romantic stuff for later.
