HI! MY NAME IS JEFF, I'M AN ARCHITECT AND HAVE MY OWN SMALL PRACTICE IN SOUTH TAMPA AND HAVE BEEN DIVORCED ABOUT FOUR YEARS. I FEEL A LITTLE AWKWARD ABOUT DOING THIS SO PLEASE FEEL FREE TO LAUGH IF I DO BADLY. ANYWAY, I LOVE TO TRAVEL. LAST FALL-PARIS. YEAR BEFORE THAT-LONDON, FLORENCE, SWITZERLAND. I JUST LOVE BEING ALIVE. I LIKE PEOPLE WHO LIKE PEOPLE AND WHO ARE GENEROUS ENOUGH TO GIVE OF THEMSELVES. I LIKE ART MUSEUMS AND BASEBALL GAMES. GOOD RESTAURANTS AND FUNKY DINERS. DANCING. ACID JAZZ AND ROCK AND CLASSICAL. BEACHES AT SUNSET - HELL, BEACHES ANY TIME. DRIVING WITH THE TOP DOWN. LONG, SERIOUS DISCUSSIONS THAT GO INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT. DID I MENTION DANCING? I JUST LOVE TO DANCE. WHAT AM I LOOKING FOR IN A WOMAN? BASICALLY, A WARM, SENSUOUS PERSON WHO IS JUST A GOOD HUMAN BEING. ATTRACTIVE HELPS. INTELLIGENT IS GOOD. SOCIABLE IS IMPORTANT. AN INTEREST IN THE ARTS IS USEFUL. SHE NEEDS TO BE CURIOUS ABOUT THE WORLD AROUND US AND TO HAVE THE LOVE OF LIFE TO WANT TO ENJOY IT. BUT MOST IMPORTANT IS THE ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE - BOTH VERBALLY AND NON-VERBALLY - WITH TENDERNESS AND AFFECTION. IF YOU HAVE THAT, NOTHING ELSE REALLY MATTERS. IF YOU DON'T, NOTHING ELSE CAN REALLY HELP. OH YEAH, SHE NEEDS A SENSE OF HUMOR, TOO - ABSOLUTELY OBLIGATORY.

A PERFECT FIRST DATE? THAT'S EASY. IT WOULD BE AN ANY OCCASION WHERE WE WERE HAVING SO MUCH FUN GETTING TO KNOW EACH OTHER THAT THE WHOLE WORLD WAS JUST A BLUR AROUND US LIKE TWO KIDS IN A SANDBOX.
