I like big butts and I can not lie...,
Sorry.. couldn't help it. Seemed to fit. But really I love Hot Rods, Motorcycles, Music, Reading, Writing, and Nursing.

Drama, sorry to say especially female drama.

I can not stand Posers that play dress up and try to act like they belong in my world.

Bullshit artists.

I used to do a little community service down at the Faith Cafe' soup kitchen, mainly serving meals and cleaning up. Has not been much time this year for this but I have begun making time to do it here and there. I like to go to really strange or eclectic places to eat mainly for the experience.

I used to own a restaurant so I am a fairly good cook, nothing fancy but pretty darn good. I love to cozy into a couch for a good movie or go to see one out on rare occasions. I am spending a lot of my lonelier hours these days listening to live music at local clubs and consuming my fair share of Scotch.I am an avid reader of mainly classic and science fiction and technical books. I like to travel, especially adventures that require a challenge or are out of the ordinary. I am an Uber geek with computers and the Internet and also do database and web site architecture.

They're all pretty much the same. Not really into doing much except see them for the entertainment of the moment. I prefer the Pixar & animated fun movies and really adore the more Gothic style ones like Underworld and Matrix series. Given a choice to spend cash on it would be SciFi or Animated. I gravitate to these styles mainly because I already know how most stories on the silver screen are going to end. So do you of course, love always triumphs in romance flicks, the hero saves the day in the action adventure, and the last chick and dude are the only survivors out of 200 in the slasher movies... and the evil murderer gets away to keep sequel writers busy. The animated stuff always makes me laugh and I never get enough giggles to say when. The SciFi, well anything can happen and there is no reasonable use of facts and issues required so the giant 300 foot tall slimy alien bad guy could really be the embodiment of Gandhi with a bad attitude and a box of sandwiches now can't it.

Christ, I could go on here forever. I love reading and writing. Given the choice I love the older classics as they generally have shaped my current writing and speaking style. I grew up on old Ellery Queen and H. P. Lovecraft mysteries. My rather dark and Gothic persona has been shaped by many hundreds of hours reading Edgar Allen Poe and Shakespeare. I am a little quirky in that I really love the romantic eloquence of Shakespeare with all his complexities of structure and meanings wrapped in those symbolic statements that always need to be deciphered and applied to his works before you have any clue what the hell he just said. It's like a video game with words. For snuggling into a warm bed with a long sleepless night of reading I mostly prefer hard Science Fiction like Issac Asimov, Arther C. Clark, or the likes of Ray Bradbury.

Some of my favorite classics are;

The Andromeda Strain by Michael Crichton
The Moon Pool by A. Merritt
Islands in the Sky and Rendezvous with Rama by
Arthur C. Clarke
City by Clifford D. Simak
Fantastic Voyage by Isaac Asimov

Just to name a few...

Name it! Rock, Alternative, Industrial, Metal, Thrash Metal, some Death Rock, Country (sometimes), Hip Hop (rarely but Ne Yo & Flo-rida are pretty cool). I prefer Rock and Alternative Rock above most types. Currently nurturing a love affair with the likes of: Evanescence, Stone Sour, Disturbed, REO Speedwagon, Rehab, 212 Degrees, Riptide, Staind, Duffy, Chris Daughtry, Aerosmith, AC/DC.

I'm a first generation Italian American from upstate New York. I have 3 sisters and 2 brothers. Spent 5 years in the USAF. After decades fixing failing businesses across the US I left New Jersey and migrated to Florida where I built several businesses of my own, (a Curves for Woman, a computer company Systems Anywhere, and a restaurant & bar in Ybor City called The Stardust, that catered to the Goth, Rock, & alternate lifestyles). It took a lot of living and getting screwed over by a slow 10 year death of a 30 year marriage to realize that none of it was worth a shit. So, 5 years back I sold them all to satisfy a nasty divorce and went back to school to become an LPN. Now, I do work with St. Judes Hospital, and a group called "Bikers Against Child Abuse", and the elderly & homeless when I can down at the Faith Cafe soup kitchen. I hope over the next few years to acquire the needed licenses to start a new business of an Adult Day Care Center in the St. Petersburg area. I have 2 grown daughters, Clarissa an Architect & Erin, a Doctor. I live a single life and I take serious the feelings of other people, especially children and the elderly. I'm a bit of an extremist where issues of human dignity and prejudices are concerned. I build custom cars and coaches as a lifelong hobby and semi-professional business. I have ridden a motorcycle non-stop since I was 14. I am a lifelong student. I am also spending a small portion of my leisure time these days to slooooowly learn to play an electric guitar. I am really not interested in being a player in a dating world. Just looking for friends. I really have a strong disgust for any woman who thinks she is a "princess" or should be placed on a pedestal by a man. Self centered woman who think their shit is ice cream have got to be the biggest turn off there is. Trust, equality in treatment and intelligence and friendship are always a good start. Of course I have been trying that approach for years and just seem to keep getting crapped on. Oh well, they say insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Guess I'm nuts.

Well, you asked didn't you.
