about me
I'm an easy going, fun loving guy who would like to meet some new people and make some friends, which could eventually lead to more. I like the outdoors, camping and the beach. I do like going to the movies, but you seldom will find me in front of the TV. I guess I just don’t get the “reality” thing. Reality is experiencing life and friends. I do like to listen to music at home and my musical taste runs the full gamut. I love to visit museums, art galleries and local fairs. I travel for my work, but still like to travel and experience new things in my vacation time to include naturist activities. Since I’m a nudist you would never know that I am typically quite shy and introverted. My friends would definitely back me up on that statement!

Guess I am just tired. I love being an American, but I hate being an American. what I mean is that I love the freedom I get being from America, but I hate the name calling associated with the war. I love everyone of the people serving in Iraq/Afaghanistan. They are true patriots. The slime working in DC, the are just that slime. I am retired military and subject to recall for whtever, until thte day I die. Funny when you consider that I serverd 21 years, and was a full fledged closet ... read more

Did anyone else catch the article on page 1 of the New York Times titled: "Army Giving More Waivers In Recruiting" By Lizette Alvarez ? I think it a really poor state of affairs when we will allow criminals to serve in the military but won't allow someone who is gay. The article states that the Army increased the number of waivers for criminal behavior by 65%, from 4,918 in 2003 to 8,129 in 2006. These are not just waivers for some experimental drug use, traffic violations, shoplifting bu... read more
