About Me

*****My purpose is to use my communication skills and sense of humour to inspire and invoke others to share their feelings and gifts with each other while they learn to live in synch with the universe and humankind.****** Life, for me, especially the past five years or so, has been a roller coaster of new locales, new people, new experiences but also has included a lot of the familiar. I have learned a lot. I know that I am a much more simple person than I like to think I am. I like to be with my friends. I love to cook. Travel is my drug. I love deeply and loyally and count my friends as my lovers - even though we may not physically connect, they understand me, even with all my idiosyncrasies and they love me, unconditionally. I am getting a bit older but still love to play with matchbox cars, discover secret paths and live in a world of make believe, especially when the pain of real life can become too strong. I am not any one extraordinary but I have lived an extraordinary life - over 30 countries, film, tv, commercials, theater, near death experiences, alcohol, sex, drugs, rock and roll and of course, a whole lot of country. I've ridden a mechanical bull in a Snow White dress, traversed part of the Sahara on a camel, hopped through the Greek Islands, and been engaged three times. Factor in a dysfunctional family, the skill of having survived a small town and a wicked sense of humor and there isn't much I can't handle.I have a lot more to do and I am always looking for a new adventure for me and my partners-in-crime.http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0194953/Myspace Layouts

My Interests

International Travel, Travel in General, Cooking, Road Trips, Film, Dogs, Genealogy, 80's, Politics, Community Involvement, Writing, Current Events, Camping, Hiking, Exploring, Changing and pushing boundaries... Places to still go or revisit, maybe I will be in your town sooner then later: Indonesia, Boston, Hawaii, Cuba, Portugal, Savannah, Key West, Crete, Malta, Australia, New Zealand -- I could go on forever.

I'd like to meet:

Someone as complex and simple as I am. I'd be happy surrounded by dogs. I am safely single yet seeking someone to laugh, cry and learn with. Someone to fight the injustices of the world with. Someone who has done it all, has a desire for new adventures and yet remains hungry like me. I am a spoiled child trapped in the body of a man who never has quite grown up. I need a playmate. I am continually seeking new friends. I want to learn more about every corner of the world. I respect people who have a passport, a great sense of humor and a passion for life. People who don't take it all to seriously yet know what really matters impress me the most. I'd like to meet people with open minds, open hearts and a taste for the crazier side of life. In the end, I respect people that respect themselves. Staying in touch with old friends and making some new ones along the way is very important.

My Blog

I have spun out, had flat tires and been put in the wall but in the end, I will win this race.

It's almost midnight in the Midwest. I am awake, somewhat relaxed, watching Anderson Cooper 360, cautiously optimistic that Obama will be our next President and that this country may finally get back ...

Making Every Moment Count

This morning I woke up when my alarm went off at 0600. I hit snooze. It went off again every five minutes until 0645. I knew I had to be at work. Work, of course, is not my career. It is, however, one...
