You can find my around town with friends playing a friendly game of poker, going out to listen to local bands, or serving it up on the sand volleyball court.
Helping others is definitely an important aspect in my life. If you like a confident, outgoing, driven man, your in luck todays, since I am back on the market, but with a very limited self life. I speak my mind when asked my opinion, yet I am not harsh, unless you really do something utterly idiotic, then I might get a little harsh. If a person treats me fair, they get it double in return. If someone acts inappropriate with me, they know it quickly - I like to set the paramaters of a friendship, business deal, or other types of interactions. Why you may ask do I set the rules, because too many people have lost all concept of boundaries, self discipline, and common courtesy. As such, the GOLDEN RULE applies for this Southern Gentleman, I still open doors, walk on the curb side of the street with my lady safely arm in arm, between me & the building, under the awning, out of the rain, and safer from all these crazy folks begging for money nowadays.


Here is my question for you.

Do you want to feel special again? Has it been too long since your man, not a boy aged into a mans body, gave you the respect, admiration, and goose bumpps you so deserve and yearn for? If you are my lady, you are going to feel pretty, special, as if you are the only woman in the room. I will stand-up for you in public, stand-up to you in private. Men and women have defined roles in this world, and our culture has just about ripped apart the roles assigned by nature, nuture, and our preceeding neanderthal forefathers, and just by looking around we can see the difficulties in relationship this has caused.

I golf, very well, used to teach it. I love to cycle, water-ski, snow-ski, ride dirt bikes, play horse-shoes, shoot guns occassionally at targets, not animals. I do not like sitting at a computer, so typing this has taking me away from the beautiful sun and crisp fresh fall air that I crave to feel on my skin.

I am an honest person, I know you immediately go into disbelief mode!!! How could you not....I have met so many unfortunate ladies that have been lied to, worked over by the wolves in GQ clothing, slicked hair and leased BMW's. Let me apologize for those immature fools who burned you! You deserve better, and I am better. Those fools were not raised with caring, discipling parents. Hard to believe I am telling the truth, but my memory is not good enough to be a liar, and more importantly my conscience does not allow for lying, my conscience does not allow for it (another amazing fact - A man with a conscience).

Seek and you will find it (every-time I promise!)....we all get want we want in life, the problem is many people don't know what they want, so they get exactly that, no-where, lost and confused and yet they wonder how they got there.

Let us discuss the obvious questions at issue here.
1. Why am I on this site?
2. Why am I single?
3. Why are you on this site?
4. Why are you single?

1. I have a difficult time meeting quality single ladies in my line of work. My friends are married, with young children. So the referrals from my friends that are girls have slowed down.
2. I am single because I choose to be. I find a great relationship "for me" are about our choices; not a marriage certificate issued by a political system that causes more problems than it solves. I crave adventure partners to share new experiences, new friends bring new experiences I've never tried.
3. Let me know why your single, I am a great listener.
4. I will be able to figure out why your single in 15 minutes and decide that quickly if we will be compatable at adventure partners or only as friends.


I aspire to play at an even higher level of professional poker, than I currently am. My living was made with golf clubs and now I am moving into a new arena of competition/salary/career choice. For those of you that need a shirt and tie, lives inside the square box, RUN NOW,RUN FAST, we will never get along for I will blow your brain with my creative, laisse fairre lifestyle. Call me a vagabond or a boulavadere. It took me several years to learn from my mistakes in life, but I finally did learn, and that has allowed me to really live up life with alcohol or drugs and be high as kite 90% of the time. Working for a living is just not my cup of tea. Former stockbroker who had an epiphany years ago - that's a great description of me. God spoke, or rather yelled b/c I would not listen, till he or she was really pissed then YeLLed at me, so finally listened and life has been so much better than any ride a Disney engineer could ever come up with.

Going to a coffee-shop, or lil cafe for quick bite is a great starter, maybe a runup to Winstar in Oklahoma, or Shreveport. Maybe House of Blues for music, a game at the AAC, or shooting our hated enemies at the gun range. What are we gonna do on our first adventure together....THAT is the question that Shakes really meant to write...not to be or not to be....if we can think to be, then we are...there is no not to be. silly shakes.
