About Me

What would a person like to know about me.......Most people are surprised that a man this old interacts comfortably with people of all ages. Very little shocks me or turns me off (not that I am accepting of things like abuse and nastiness et al).Somehow, I am able to accept various lifestyles and I enjoy learning about them. Things like body piercings and tattoos and colored hair and unmarried people living together and sexuality issues don't bother me.I enjoy being a dad or grandfather to people I meet. I'm a compassionate and understanding person. I've dealt with depression in my life.I'm interested in things like photography (especially digital), editing photos online, gardening, fitness, travel, world affairs, meeting people from other countries, having fun, good jokes of all kinds. One thing I am not is particularly intellectual.I'm married (many years), retired from a career in software and human factors. Adult children. Grandchildren. Love all aspects of the internet.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Anyone, any age, male or female. I love people and really enjoy making friends. I remember the early days of ICQ when we met people from all over the world. I loved it.I am not particularly judgmental of people so no matter who9 you are or what you have been, come on in.

Music:

My main interest is jazz, big bands, and jazz vocalists from the 40s and 50s. But I also enjoy show tunes and country. used to play sax. clarinet, guitar, piano.

Movies:

Comedies, mysteries, adventure.

Television:

2 1/2 Men, Dog the Bounty Hunter, Sopranos, and sports that have Boston teams.

Books:

Most of my reading is online. I will read books about the behind the scenes goings on in Iraq and the middle east.

Heroes:

Haven't thought of any lately except men and women who join our military and fight and get badly injured and die. And this includes all the wars our country has fought.

My Blog

Dealing with photos
