Overall I'm just a normal guy who likes football, hockey, driving and even shooting. After graduating from the UofMN this spring I am back into my career path of IT. I have rejoined the working class with a professional job in the wilds of Eden Prairie.

I enjoy donning a suit and tie for the orchestra or opera and have been lucky enough to have traveled the world. On the more adventurous side I've flown planes and been a beekeeper. My musical tastes range from classic rock to jazz to techno.

Past that I believe in family, fidelity, and keeping my word. Of course that doesn't mean I subscribe to the Norman Rockwell lifestyle either. I am willing to discuss being a house-husband and have excellent cooking skills. Free thought is important to me and should be for you as well.

Speaking of you... ideally I am looking for a woman as intelligent as she is beautiful; one that can manage smart, sultry and stubborn. I know I can be difficult and opinionated so it is important to me to find a woman who will stand up to me when I am wrong. On the flip side she should enjoy being pampered and willing to show her softer side.

I am a genuinely good guy, albeit an opinionated one; references available upon request .

Meet for coffee and conversation. I mean you'd be meeting me from the internet after all. One step at a time.

A second date would be anything from the orchestra or opera to a motorcycle ride and Grand Old Creamery ice cream to a Wild game.
