First thing I should say is that my username is based on my last name, not on my reputation. I am a big guy, but more of a gentle giant. I played high school football. I am kinda shy, but once I know the people I am around, I am usually the life of the party. I like to read, and watch movies. I am very much the gentleman, I open doors for people, and pull out the chair for my date. Raised to say yes sir and no ma'am and things of that nature. So if I call you ma'am, take it as a compliment, because that means that I respect you. Some people think that being called sir or ma'am means that the person that said it is calling them old or something, but not when it comes from me. I am prone to outbursts of random knowledge, useless facts that noone really cares about, but I know them . I am currently an engineer, but I plan on going back to school for secondary education, so I can become a Spanish teacher. I listen to country music and rock mostly, but I am open to pretty much anything. I should also warn that i am a pretty big redneck, pick up truck and work boots, all that stuff. And I do have a bit of A D D, although it doesn't interfere with most of what i do. But sometimes i do have the attention span of a gold fish

YESTERDAY IS HISTORY, TOMORROW IS A MYSTERY. TODAY IS A GIFT, THAT'S WHY IT IS CALLED THE PRESENT

I feel that a first date should be decided upon mutually, after there has been some correspondence and the parties agree on any one thing to do.
