I am here for Serious Relationships, Friends and Networking

About Me


Hi! I am: a writer , a translator of technical Japanese , a Localization Project Manager , an older brother with one sister, a father of four wonderful children; multilingual, imaginative , thoughtful, creative ; a voracious reader of anything and everything, with an eclectic taste in music; a committed net surfer and technophile ; an enlightened hedonist addicted to sensual pleasures (I love to engage the senses in the blisses of sound, smell, taste, touch and sight); sapiosexual , meaning I find intelligent folk more attractive; a Scorpio, with typical mystical leanings; a Tarot enthusiast who never charges for a reading, and only reads for friends. I form deep and lasting relationships, and can be loyal long after it has ceased to be convenient.
As a libertarian , I'm somewhat of a political oddity.
You scored as Libertarian. You are a libertarian. You believe in a minimal government whose only duty is to protect its citizens from being injured or victimized by others. Wealth and private property are very important to you.

For those who want to understand the fundamental premise of libertarianism, here is a video explaining the Philosophy of Liberty :
I'm also very interested in Freemasonry and its emphasis on Enlightenment-era philosophy and culture, and its ideal of the refined , gentlemanly life. As a Freemason , I consider myself a rational mystic .
Here are a few links for those who are interested in learning more about Freemasonry:

Virtual Tour of the Supreme Council of the Scottish Rite, SJ
Virtual Tour of the Grand Lodge of New York

Hiram & Hiram Regalia
While I suppose this all sounds very serious, I do make every effort not to be stuffy. After all, what good is it to be a rational mystic and a gentleman if I don't know how to have a bit of fun!
I am happily married to a wonderful woman , and lead a somewhat eccentric family life. I really hate drama , but I'm always looking for those with whom I can share a deep spiritual connection and an ongoing joyous childlike fascination with the wonders of the world. Open-minded does not begin to describe the truth of the matter for me. I am an adventurous , innocent boy ; after all these years, I'm still delighted by what waits behind the next corner.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:


My Soror Mystica :

Anyone who speaks Japanese, or who would like to eat Indian Vegetarian food at Punjab Sweets or at Pabla Cuisine . A mud puppy named Skippy .

Anyone who likes the combined fragrance of oranges, cinnamon, nutmegs and cloves; those who are frightened neither by my beard nor by my interests; those who think that "13" and "72" and "93" aren't simply numbers. I'd like to meet those who understand the relationship between Tarot and the healing power of art; and of course those who share any of my interests in this rather unpadded profile. Pick a topic, and let's chat.

Oh, and if I could travel back in time, I'd love to meet Emma Peel . Or Mata Hari . And if Star Trek were real, maybe an Orion Slave Girl . Despite appearances, while I may be innocent and adventurous I'm Not Quite Vanilla . No, I mean it . . .
really .
