Sorry, no boring, fake ass player here...

About Me

How are u supposed to do this without sounding self-indulgent or egotistical? lol...well, anyways, here goes: i moved to the naples area 4 years ago with my family to pursue my career and have the chance to watch my 2 neices grow up. I am single, have never been married and have no children. I love the lifestyle living here provides, but the politicians in the area make it unnecessarily hard to really enjoy it or to even live on your own comfortably. I work 2 jobs-one during the week and one on the weekends. My weekend job is for Renda Broadcasting. I produce the Florida Firecats AF2 football games as well as give the AF2 scoreboard update during games. I also produce some other shows for the station and remote broadcasts for 102.9fm. Radio broadcasting and Broadcast Journalism is my career, and, even though im only working weekends right now in the field, i have very specific goals for my career that im working towards. But part time radio jobs dont pay very much money so i still have to work a full time job during the week, but doing something relating to my career helps me get through the blah of my 'bill' paying job during week. I am also a writer-serious stuff on political and social theory. But! dont think im boring just because i prefer to use my brain lol-once you get to know me you will see I'm anything! but boring:D..I consider myself intelligent, open minded, spontaneous and think of myself as something of a philosopher. Im the up front, honest type of guy and find it easy to laugh-my sense of humor is on the sarcastic side of things though-grins...I'm a sports nut but i still enjoy good, passionate conversations about a wide variety of subjects-especially, dare i say, politics and religion. I believe in Karma and believe that you should try to learn something new every day...If you were to ask my friends down here they would probably say Im an honest, loyal, intelligent person who isnt afraid to speak my mind and tell it as i see it(i do have some cooth though lol)...My hobbies include listening to music, writing, going to the beach-particularly at night, surfing the net and doing research online for my book or any of a number of ideas Im working on, playing pool, or anything spontaneous that I havent done in awhile(still looking for someone to join me in a game of minature golf lol)...I am also a very sexual person, who is not afraid of exploring new things and spicing it up in the bedroom(why are so many men afraid to shop with their g/f's or wives at sex stores? lol)...If you must know more just ask, I'm pretty easy to say hi too:), but dont be surprised by what I may say lol

You Are a Natural Flirt
Believe it or not, you're a really effective flirt.
And you're so good, you hardly notice that you're flirting.
Your attitude and confidence make you a natural flirt.
And the fact that you don't know it is just that more attractive!

My Interests

Good, 'spirited' conversations-about anything-grin...shooting pool...nights on the beach...a nice dinner and a good movie...spontaneous road trips to nowhere in particular or somewhere specific...cultural events...sex and more sex, of course;)...sports and going to sporting events...surfing the internet...online poker...420 on occasion-wink...spontaneity and variety...partying on certain holidays: halloween, july 4th and my birthday particularly...I dont mind doing the club and bar scene, but its get old after awhile and I'm not that much of a drinker. To be honest, I prefer a little '420' than anything else, and I dont do much of that either...

I'd like to meet:

What I DONT want: jobless, materialistic, conceited money hungry, vain women.Im not a broke ass, and Im not ugly-ill put a pic up soon(im 5'7 150lbs with light brown hair and blue eyes,)but a lot of very attractive women in this area have their looks totally spoiled by their self centered, shallow personalities...I am looking for something real and tangible, definately a serious relationship. I'm not getting any younger, lol, and it would be nice to find someone whom I can look to the future with and know it will be worth it. Age isnt very important to me, but you must be over 21...There are 4 specific traits that I am looking for. In order-grin-intelligence, passion, an open mind and sexual compatibility. I have found that the other qualities i am looking for are comprised of these 4...Trust, honesty, physical attraction, manners, morals, etc. are 'duh's' to me lol; and I would like to meet someone who could help motivate me to quit smoking cigarettes(what a nasty habit, I wish I had never started:P) and perhaps get me to start excercising again. Passion about what you do for a living and a having a little bit of a thrill seeker in ya are huge turn ons-grin...O yeah, NO DRAMA PLEASE!!!!:)

Music:

All kinds. I have hundreds of cd's, but to give you an idea here are some of the biggies: Dave Matthews, Moby, The Smiths, Bach(classical), The Cure, Outkast, Chemical Brothers, Aerosmith, Erasure, Bob Marley, Harry Connick jr, Enya, Enigma...Get the idea yet? lol

Movies:

humor, action/adventure, sci-fi, and, sighs, i must admit, i do enjoy certain chick flicks, what can i say lol...My all time favorite movie, though, is Pump Up the Volume

Television:

not much a tv watcher, i prefer movies, but i do like csi-vegas, that seventies show, southpark, smallville, sports, discovery channel, wwe...

Books:

I love the harry potter books-and the movies for that matter and anything philosophical. Yeah, i know: boring, hard to read blah blah...but not to me. In recent years I've grown very fond of ayn rand and her novels the fountainhead and atlas shrugged..

Heroes:

Anyone who has strived to change the world for the better and anyone who strives to achieve-without stepping on someone elses toes or stabbing someone in the back to get there

My Blog

For the fellas and ladies to respond too...

Some general bitchin' and complainin' about the opposite sex... You know, I just dont get women. I realize this is like, the most overused understatement by any man on the planet, but I have to say it...

An accomplishment...

One of my new years resolutions was to quit smoking by the end of the year. I've smoked on and off since i was 16, and as I've gotten older have learned to really regret ever picking up the habit. Wel...
