I'm fun, funny, very creative, upbeat, offbeat, playful, intelligent (book & streetwise), sensitive. I'm open-minded, down-to-earth, outgoing, passionate & romantic. Love kissin' and cuddlin'. I'm kind of a scruffy on the outside, but soft as a baby's bottom on the inside. (I can't watch "It's a Wonderful Life" without tearing up)

I've led a very interesting life and have done things few others have. Boring, I'm not. I once had a group of friends once tell me that I reminded them of Kramer on Seinfeld...I have a new group of friends now.

I write and perform on a regular basis.

I'm good with kids, even though I have none of my own (that I know of). I know how to be a gentleman (and a gentle man), but I do have a wild side.

If you're the one I fall in love with, I'll put you on a pedestal...a pretty tall one, at that. Even taller than mine.

I'm an animal lover. I have an adorable, sweet Walt Disney ragamuffin dog named Ruby, the greatest dog in the world. (Well, maybe not tonight she's not)

For fun and excitement, I enjoy flea markets/rummage sales, trivia, darts, pool, video/card/board games and karaoke. Despite the fact that I like karaoke, I do have a cultural side. I find "the theatah", improv comedy, zoos, art and museums are fun, too. I prefer jazz, blues, standards and musicals, but I'll listen to almost all music. 2 minutes is pretty much enough for me, though, when it comes to rap.

I like some outdoorsy stuff, too. Hiking, just being in nature. Open to many things. But no camping in the winter time.

I'm not a bad cook...my pantry is well-stocked for a straight guy.

I prefer blue jeans, but I do dress up for the right person. I clean up well.

I look and act younger than my age. You don’t stop playing because you get old. You get old because you stop playing.

About my dream mate

PLEASE have a sense of humor. (Yeah, everyone SAYS they do).

A college degree isn't important. Intelligence is. I'm not impressed by a fancy car or house.

Oh, and I don't mean to sound superficial, but, please have all your teeth...at least the ones that I see when you smile and we kiss.

If you're considered a "little bit different" by normal people that's a big plus. Some baggage is fine, but please, not too much more than a carry-on or small suitcase. Not the full Samsonite set. If you claim not to have any baggage, you're either a liar or boring.

Bonus points for pet owners, singers/musicians/artists/creative types and great hair.

I don't anser adds with pore speling an badd grammer.

Thanks for reading all the way down!

Something simple.

If you can sing, maybe karaoke.

If you can walk, maybe a stroll through a park.

If you drink coffee, I would prefer anyplace but the number one coffee chain.

If you imbibe, some place where we can chat.

I'm pretty open...gotta suggestion?
