Ok, I’m in… New poster, but veteran GD lurker. 31, male, never married, no children, nonpracticing Christian of SOME sort or another. Originally from Hawaii, then Tennessee, now in Miami, Florida. Part-time military officer (made the Captain’s list, God help us all!), full time journalist. (I cover mutual funds. Actually, it’s more interesting and fun than I thought it would be!) Also worked as a music teacher, high school band director, soldier, mental health counselor, and companion to the mentally handicapped. Academic background–literature. (Big mistake.) Other pursuits? I’m a good jazz/blues guitar player and a bad (but enthusiastic) Irish/Scottish/Nova Scotian/Old time/Bluegrass fiddle player. Interests in a woman? Well integrity first. All else falls into place, or can be taken away in the blink of an eye. But I can tell the kind of girls who hang out here, being generally well read and intellectually curious, seem to be my kind of girls! 🙂 At least they are if they ADORE sex, too, but we’ll cross that bridge when we get to first base. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by panzermanpanzerman \* _31_ - great age! \*male \* - good start _never married, no children, nonpracticing Christian of SOME sort or another._ - excellent - minimal baggage - that’s what I like to hear!! 🙂 _now in Miami, Florida._ - damn - there is always a catch isn’t there? ☹ _Interests in a woman? Well integrity first. All else falls into place, or can be taken away in the blink of an eye._ Far too true - Integrity, honesty, honour and a great sense of humour are all essential. _At least they are if they ADORE sex, too_ Always a bonus 😃 Damn - why are they always half a world away? ---
