What in blue blazes is 'Fish Personality' supposed to mean? Did anyone select anything from that list?

I'm really interested in finding somebody cool to hang with, catch a show, go swimming, play Scrabble with and occasionally go do weird sh*tlike the gun range and bungee jumping.

I don't really care to judge people based on looks but POF is pretty much only set up to do that. Oh well. I am what I am and I like what I like.

So with that in mind, I will only seek out and respond to those women out there who have pics up and then probably only those who seem happy. I'm like Ed Sullivan coaching the Doors to be on his show: there's no point being sullen.

My hobbies include nothing specific and everything in general... I dabble in arts, explore strange new worlds (I'm not a Trekkie), and like to do things I've never done before, even if I only do them once like play Bridge. Once was enough. I like to do experimental cooking which means that I really don't know what I'm doing and it often turns out awful, but fun regardless.

I'm a people person but often just like to people watch.

I've got a lot of things on the go right now including business ideas, schooling and other projects, both personal and professional. I live in the public eye a little but I much prefer privacy which is why I'm a little bit vague and secret here.

I have a lot of love for most things, even the ones that piss me off so it doesn't take much for me to get over the shitty bits. Hope you can handle bad language. I place particular emphasis on communication and connection in relationships. It's important but it can't be forced with me.

Oh, and I'm more into movies than music but as tunes go, I steer clear of everything Nickelback, Michael Buble, Diana Krall and Celine Dion. Bryan Adams and Avril Lavigne are okay in my books though. I much prefer Tom Waits, Bach, Elvis Costello, the other Elvis, Leonard, Bif, Nick Cave and musicians of unique and exceptional talent and individuality. Okay, that also includes Weird Al. Yup. Right now I'm rotating through Christian Hansen and the Autistics, Datarock and Radiohead when I'm not flipping through seven radio stations. Yup, I'm a flipper. Also, I'm koo-koo for Dane Cook and I don't know why. I just am.

Otherwise would like to find someone special. Chemistry is key. Personality is crucial. It's great if you have beauty on your side but I'd rather spend time with someone who knows how to be content and not complain all the time. Nobody's perfect and I don't expect you to be either.

And here's the deal breaker... spelling and grammar are critical. Ha!

First date depends on the 'datee' and me agreeing so it's all up in the air. I would probably make it safe but a little interesting. Say Boston Pizza, then the gun range, or Starbucks and then go-karts. Last date involved skydiving and then Vietnamese food. Tip: don't eat before you dive... save the meal for after.

On second thought, maybe drinking beer before shooting live ammo isn't such a hot idea.

I just realized that my dates sound like the dates on Blind Date. All I need to know about starting a relationship I learned from Roger Lodge.

That's the spirit of what I would do if everything was up to me. The world is an oyster, or rather a bed of oysters: watch where you step, dude.
