Male

47

I'm tall and I'm pretty conservative. I enjoy helping people with things, including fixing and installing things. I have a thousand projects underway and will probably finish a dozen, but I enjoy trying my hand at new things.

Knowledge is its own reward, so I'm always trying to learn as much as I can about anything that interests me. A good argument is just good fun - normally, disagreeing with someone shouldn't mean you don't get along with that person. I brew beer and mead so I can share it with friends, and I'm making my first attempt a wine making (from a kit).

I'm a cat person, I eat red meat, think a Shiraz compliments it perfectly, and love strong-flavored beers that aren't too bitter. To me, black coffee with plain New York style cheesecake is the perfect dessert. I spend most of my free time doing things directly or indirectly related to the Society for Creative Anachronism unless I've let myself get distracted with a good book. I've read the entire Aubrey/Maturin series at least five times, and have copies of most of Howard Chapelle's books on wooden ships and boats. I'm trying to learn to cast pewter and bronze.

In other words, my interests are eclectic. I'm judgemental of concepts but accepting of people - after all, no one is perfect.

I don't have a lot of pictures of myself, and most of those are of me in some sort of garb/costume. Guess I should work on that, but I'm more likely to snap pics of my cats or friends than arrange for one of myself. After all, I know what I look like.

Browse and enjoy. Or not. Suit yourself, just have fun doing whatever it is you're doing.
