Jeff

Fun loving father and husband looking for friends

About Me

I'm old enough to know better but I'm also too damn young to feel this damn old. I'm married to a wonderful woman and have 2 great boys. We live in a 100+ year old farm house in the country (hence my liking home improvement). We have 2 dogs, 6 cats, 1 fish and 1 tarantula. The tarantula is my youngest son's. He's into bugs in a big way. Probably be an entomologist when he's older.

My Interests

Woodworking, home improvement, working with computers, playing computer games (although I haven't in quite a while, tennis and golf (although I'm not real great at either but I try)

I'd like to meet:

Other people with similar interests who want to get to know me. I'm not looking for a deep, intense relationship. Just looking for anyone who would like to talk and get to know me. Looking for friends who'd like to get to know me.

Music:

I like pop, rock, county and clasical. Just about anything but Rap, just can't get into that.

Movies:

I like horror, action, suspense and my wife gets me to like her types as well.

Television:

Current favorites are Lost, Dr. Who (the current one but always loved the one I grew up on in the 80's with Tom Baker), Stargate, NCIS. Grew up on Knight Rider, A-Team, Riptide, and all those other wonderful 80's shows.

Books:

I'll read just about anything but like fantasy, suspense and horror. Authors like Stephen King, Dean Koontz and others of the type.

Heroes:

Wish I had some.

One the road again

After about 18 years, I'm finally getting a motorcycle again.  It's a really nice bike.  My youngest asked me why I'm reading things and watching tv about motorcycles all the time now. ...

Will the rain ever stop?

Well, it's another wonderful day here in Western NY. Raining yet again, like that's a shocker in NY, right?  They canceled our softball game this evening and I started thinking about building an ...

Happy Frickin Fourth

Hope everyone is having a great holiday. I spent this morning arguing with my wife who thinks I've got some secret life online. I don't talk to anyone and don't have any online friends yet so I'm not ...

Field Trip to Albany

Went on a field trip to Albany with my son's fourth grade class yesterday. It was a lot of fun and I enjoyed going with him. I only had 3 major pet peeves that I wanted to share. 1 - Kids who don't be...

What do I do with my life?

So, I'm at a point here where I need some guidance. I've never been one for praying so I won't go there. I'm getting ready to sign up for college at Empire, if I can get the financial aid.  I'm g...
