This is a long profile as I wanted to be as open as possible. This may sound ostentatious but I guess I'm the complete package. My photos don't do me justice as I'm much better looking in real life; I look my worst and tired in them. I had a hard time uploading my photos as I'm used to 35mm photography only and was able to upload this one photo which came out too dark. I'm classy, athletic, smart, cultured, couth, class, good etiquette, dress dapper, treats women well. I'm in extremely great shape with a 44-inch chest and 34-inch waist. I want to spend the rest of my life with one woman taking her breath away(I don't plan to stop my workouts. When I get a lot older I may tone them down a bit but that's it). I don't have any skeletons in my closet so if you confuse kindness for weakness, then I'm not the one for you. Why would you want a bad guy anyway? Isn't the bad boy the same as an evil guy? I was born in New York City and am a snowbird as I live in the very beautiful Country Walk neighborhood in Miami. I look about 30-years-of age. I don't have wrinkles but sweaty skin from all the South Florida heat and humidity. I guess if you have to compare me to a car it would be a classic 1961 Ferrari. Yes, lots of years but in mint condition and a muscle car. My hair is a mix of dark, gray, and white. I wear sunblock sunscreen when I'm outdoor so that and that I'm a milk drinker is how I avoided wrinkles along with lifting weights. I had a 32-inch waist when I graduated high school. Today it's only 34-inch waist which is incredible in this fast food era.) My favorite books are the Big Sleep by Raymond Chandler, Cavalier and Clay by Michael Chabon, PT-109 by Michael Trikilis, and the Missiles of October by Robert Thompson Smith. I love abstract art and my favorite cube style artist are Piet Mondrian, Jackson Pollack, Alexander Calder, and Pablo Picasso. I also like impressionist artists Claude Monet and Pierre-Augustus Renoir. As far as a woman, I do not want a woman that is bipolar/manic depressive. I do have trouble with my hearing. I only have about 60 percent of my hearing. I can hear high pitch sounds well. It's the midrange and low sounds I have trouble with. Because of it, I have trouble hearing on cellphones. I'm a native New Yorker and a big Yankee fan. When I go to New York, I love not only going to Yankee Stadium but to Frank Lloyd's Wright Guggenheim Museum. I also love to visit Tampa. I don't hit, or cuss at or borrow money from women(not even emotionally abusive by verbally putting them down). By the way, I have never been arrested; but a woman should never confuse kindness for weakness. It may sound like I'm tooting my own horn but in the past I haven't and lost out. I don't have an STD and neither should you. My favorite movies are "Ferris Bueller's Day Off," "the Punisher," "the Dark Knight," "Batman Begins," Alfred Hitchcock's spy thriller "North by Northwest, Clint Eastwood's Dirty Harry and Sudden Impact(where Eastwood says Go ahead, make my day!). I'm also opinionated in that I do have an open mind but I don't change my views. I'm a night person and not an early morning person. My favorite TV shows are the following as I own season DVD episodes sets of Chuck(season 1 and 2), Terminator the Sarah Connor Chronicles(season 1 and 2), Family Guy(season 1 to 7), and Smallville (season 1 to 8). I have and kept a flat stomach, no double chin because I don't care for greasy/unhealthy foods and don't care to eat my feelings. As a collector I have authentic sports jerseys of Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez, Eli Manning, Peyton Manning, Mariano Rivera, Joe Montana, Dan Marino, John Elway, Michael Strahan, Tom Brady, Manny Ramirez, Brett Favre, Jeff Bagwell, Ben Roethlisberger, and Jeff Garcia. I also own Cooperstown collection jerseys which are replicas of those of Mickey Mantle, Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio, Yogi Berra, Ted Williams, and Babe Ruth wore(I'm a major Yankee fan). The above doesn't sound romantic but I do write poetry. Here's one(I have the copyright on it.
Venice and You
I want to go to Venice, Italy, with you.
I dreamed that we did so, so many times.
We'll ride the gondola in the soft dim glow of the moonlight.
As the wind brushes back your beautiful soft long hair, I'll hold you tight.
With the bumps of the waves and the sound of you sighing in my arms will leave me breathless.
Sitting next to you and my skin pressed against yours will leave me senseless.
With the sweet taste of your kiss, I'll plead that I may softly down in your lips.
The gondolier may sing and play his mandolin but the only music I'll hear is from your breathing and the beating of your heart.
Once you say you are only and all mind, there's nothing to ever keep us apart.
Take off your shoes and if the night air gives you a chill, I'll keep you warm.
My arms were made to fit around you and they belong around your perfect form.
Your hair as soft as the deep sea. And in the moonlight, your eyes like the night sky of space. They may appear to be dark but they shine like all the stars gathered together. A warm and friendly smile from my soul mate.
Your face as breathtakingly beautiful as none have ever seen before.
Your lips like soft pink rose petals, so sweet, so smooth. And as we kiss so very long, ther will never be a doubt that my heart belongs to you.
Paradise is being with you. And though we can't be in Venice all the time. These feelings I have for you will never end.
So I guess if you like a guy that will treat you well and be romantic with you, then I'm the guy for you. If you're into bad boys, then I'm not the right one for you. To be 100 percent honest, I let the years fly by. That's why I never been married and don't have any children. Looking young has helped. I suppose some people look in the mirror and panic after they see themselves again. I look more distinguished and not old. Sorry, but I don't do Vegas(Las Vegas, even though I've never been there). I have morals and I can't stand that city. By the way, smoking is not cool. It doesn't matter if it's cigars, cigarettes, or whatever. Also sorry, but I don't like bongo music.

Like in the movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off," fun but in a conservative fashion. Dinner and a movie. I also want some conversation in order to know the woman. Sure I'l like a walk along the beach if I get to know her well enough on the first date. There's nothing more embarrassing than doing that on a first date and she doesn't feel as romantic as you do about her. If she also likes photography, we can also take photos on the beach and along Ocean drive and other fun spots. If you also like going to an art museum, we can also go there. Now if you have dancing in mind, the only styles I know are ballroom dancing and the twist. I'm a white guy and that's why the mixed race issue won't work out. By the way, I have an error somewhere on my profile page. I've tried to click on to someone and it says you are not allowed to contact. I don't know why but it might be easier for you to contact me until I find the glitch.
