I'm an attractive, easy going, intelligent, professional. Six feet-ish, 185 trim lbs, fair hair, healthy lifestyle.

I like to think I'm younger than I am, but then, I also like to think my parents never had sex. Be happy to send you a recent picture .. of me!

I enjoy being active, dancing and dinner parties, golf, good movies, red wine and making faces at kids. I think all kids deserve loving encouragement and pillow fights.

I am extremely proud of my own beautiful daughters, both of whom are grown and gone, but never far from dad's heart.

I believe in being a gentleman, simple courtesies, affection.

Caution! The following text contains a subliminal message: The lady I'm hoping to meet is slim, attractive, active and fit, slim, with a healthy intellect and a warped sense of humour, slim, confidently independent and slim. Thank you, you may now proceed with wild abandon :)

Sincerely, my lady is charming and challenging, laughter and sunshine, tenderness and tears. She is adorable. I hope you are too.

Well, geez, first dates are a little awkward if it's just you.

"Candlelit table for two, sir?" "Gosh, no, it's just me and, well, I'm just dating myself tonight." "I see, perhaps the drive through sir."

Otherwise, any date is a shared experience, and you really have to consider the other person.

"Come on honey, alligator wrestling is a hoot, I saw it on television once."

Whatever we choose to do, I promise to wear something appropriate, behave like a gentleman, and demonstrate a genuine interest in you.

A cozy table in a nice restaurant with a glass of wine and an hour or two of mutual, undivided attention would be a pretty good start.

I think you'd enjoy my company, and I'm pretty sure I can coax a smile or two from you along the way.
