I am here for Dating, Friends and Networking

About Me

Gentleman Surfer. I live unconventionally in wonderful circumstances. I can sing and dance, really sing and dance. I work in the garden with joy. I can cook. My adult children and x-wife love me. I have unlimited and unsupervised visitation with the former family dog. I take walks on the beach all the time.

My Interests

I write. I play music. I research. I feed my endorphin addiction. I have been called the doctor of fun.

I'd like to meet:

New Friends. I know some deep secrets. I want to share them. I'll be adding blogs with crucial information. Stuff that will make you happier, better looking, and out of jail. I love you guys, I'm not holding anything back. On the romantic front, I guess I'd like to find Virginia someday, but I have no idea if she drinks coffee at midnight.

Music:

I don't listen enough. I own a midi keyboard. I play Beatles, Eric Clapton, Train, MJ, I read charts, I sing a long. I have a back up plan to be a lounge singer on a cruise boat, so I practice my chops a few times a week. Everybody needs a backup plan. I don't own any recorded music. My radio cost 20 dollars. I listen to baseball games.

Movies:

I LOVE THEM

Television:

Not an owner. I only watch TiVo, and only if I'm invited.

Books:

I try to read the Bible once a year. I've been through it over twenty times. I read a few newspapers on line from the OC Register to Pravda. I read a history book a year when I visit my parents. It was a big deal for me to be included for reading time in the living room when I got my first library book. I still enjoy reading next to Mom. My brother, a world traveler and sophisticated as can be, has a list of one hundred books that must be read. I've read about half of them.

Heroes:

Jesus. Duh.
