I am here for Friends

About Me

I have a beautiful loving wife and two gorgeous children. We are living the American dream in small-town USA in our two story house on a corner lot with 5 TVs, 3 cars, 2 computers, rooms full of sports gear and piles of elementary school papers stacked on the kitchen counter.
Me? Well, I'll try to sum up myself as quickly and concisely as possible (after all, I pride myself on being efficient)...
I'm humbly confident. I'm intelligently simple. I'm a realistic dreamer. I'm cautiously optimistic. I'm a Libra.
I'm growing older by the second, yet I feel younger and more alive every minute. I have countless unfulfilled dreams, but three beautiful souls in my family that fill my life with new adventures every day.
I find humor in everything, but I'm saddened at the sorrow in our world. I'll make fun of anyone and anything - in private, but am compassionate to the core and would never intentionally hurt anyone.
I love children - I marvel at their innocence and determination, and ache when they are frightened, hungry, cold, or sad.
I forgive and forget, but I have utter contempt for rude, selfish, impatient, dishonest scavengers.
I love music and art and nature and all things beautiful.
My favorite pastimes are making my wife Robin happy and watching our children grow right before our eyes.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Any ordinary person who lived during any time in history - so I could spend time with them learning first-hand what their everyday life was like.

Will it ever end?

Every day there is a new story about corruption in our government, in big business, in our economy.  It's so disheartening.  Who is the victim in all of this?  The honest, hard-working citizens who ac...
