Awww…Tripler! I’m blushing!
And I already think yer a stud, hon… 
That’s plenty for me, you little hottie, you! Let me get this straight though - You were an embryo, were born (I’m guessing here, since you didn’t list it) and then went straight to bartending? Cool.
Now about me:
27/male
Aspiring novelist working for AT&T. Before that, electrician. Before that college student/security guard. Before that enlisted in the USAF, assigned to the 68th Intelligence Squadron at Brooks Air Force Base. Before that high school. Before that grade school. Before that pre-school. Before that a lot of shitting and pissing my pants and crying a lot. (You heard me right, ladies, now come get some ;))
I tend to be very sarcastic, and my sense of humor must be a little strange because sometimes people don’t know when I’m kidding or not. I can come off as being arrogant sometimes, but that’s only until you get to know me, my friends know that’s really me being tongue-in-cheek.
Lurker dear,
MIT coined the term ‘hack’ before computers to mean a prank. The cop car incident was cool, (not only doughnut in hand, but parking ticket on window) but my favorite is still the pigeon/football game hack. Students dressed like refs went on the field and fed pigeons for weeks before the ‘big game’. The day of the game, the refs in spiffy black and white troted out on to the field and were instantly covered in pigeons!
My O Chem class has models, but carbon does the whole tetra valent thing so right angles are hard. (and the colors are far more boring, and the bonds bend…) Not the same as Tinkertoys…
I love it when a plan comes together! This is coming along nicely.
Now, Porcupine and MikeG, find a quiet corner and start talking.
Yeah, but I like the pigeons and the old man in that commercial with the Yuppie and his convertible better. Just mean the smart ones are sometimes sillier than average, too.
I liked the old chem models. I liked they bend. Maybe I'm just a more flexible kind of guy? :D:Yup, straight from nappies to bartending. Because I’m JUST THAT GOOD!
Froggy, we just can’t stay away from each other, can we?
I am dating someone right now that I really, kinda, sorta like, but whatthehell, it sounds like fun.
Me:
Long blonde hair, green eyes. . . . oh hell, this is me: http://www.geocities.com/sdpeoplepages/diane.html Sometimes I look like this, other times you wouldn’t recognize me from this pic. Sometimes I look okay, sometimes I look like monkey shit. Sometimes I can turn heads, sometimes I can turn stomachs.
In spite of how I sometimes appear online, I really am a sweetheart (my birthday is February 14, just to prove it). I am divorced, have three great kiddies, 19, 16, and 9. We have two cats, one of which was a homeless kitty I dragged home from a coffee shop a few months ago. We also have a pet rat named Willis who is a sweetheart. I am seriously considering getting a dog after we come back from vacation next spring. I want something huge like a Great Dane or Mastif, maybe.
I am a counselor for disabled (mentally and physically) and/or homeless vets. I love my job most days, but I love to come home at night to my quiet house out in the sticks near the shores of the Great Salt Lake. I love vacations, videos, winter, Christmas, Chinese food, shopping, candles, gruesome true crime books (Ann Rule is my favorite), grunge bands (Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, etc.), violin music (classical, Celtic, fiddle), sleep, girly stuff (pink, lace, flowers), driving fast with the top down, dirty jokes, Utah Jazz, hiking, roller coasters, baseball, money, gossip rags, Chai tea lattes, painted French porcelain.
I hate big moths and grasshoppers, negative assholes, whiners, dumbass drivers, alarm clocks, bills, liars, judgmental dickheads, SKA, tired feet.
Man of my Dreams:
Tall, dark, and handsome. I have a thing for big, brown eyes. However, I have been known to make exceptions. My current guy is blond and blue eyed. I also love the shaved head and goatee look. I don’t like long hair, I like my men to look like MEN. Wide shoulders and a round ass. Mmmmm mmmmm mmmmm.
Great sense of humor (sick and deranged), ambitious, athletic. Someone who loves to take adventures but also knows how to lounge. Intelligent, goofy, artistic, and a good cook. Someone who not only loves kids but understands them enough to understand that it is impossible to understand them, just accept them. A gardener, mechanic, and carpenter. Someone who is tough enough to stand up for himself but smart enough to let me get my way sometimes without coming off as the martyr. Someone who is organized enough for the both of us.
A tiger in the bedroom!!! Grrrrrrrrr
Just wait till I get my pic up on the People Pages. The pic on my homepage is about 6 years old, I was still in the Air Force, and I’ve been waiting for some decent pix of me that are a little more recent before submitting to the People Pages. Yesterday was my niece’s baptism, and there should be some nice pix of me in my Pierre Cardin suit.
You’ll never be able to stay away after seeing that.
Hey, I’m waiting for my pics to get there, too. Who is standing in which line for whom?
Well, we talked plenty at ChiDope, so I’m game. Mike, I won’t whip out my vibrator on a first date.
Sure ya aren’t Nym, sure ya aren’t
Hey! Who let you have an opinion, oldscratch? You’re already GOT someone! Go to a non-single thread, wouldya?
Oh, if we are talking about you now, lurker…flexable can be very, very good…
Tristan, hey dude, didn’t you post under the married swingers subject? Hey, one to a person! :-)…
I am 40 (amazing how much practice it takes to type that without breaking out in a cold sweat), female, and unmarried. No kids, one cat.
The thing most people notice about me is my laugh and my voice. I have a loud, infectious laugh and (I am told) a nice voice with just a hint of a Southern accent. I was raised in TN, and having lived all over, have currently settled in Michigan.
What am I looking for? Just your basic nice guy. Someone to kill the bugs (hate those nasty things), laugh at my jokes, tell me some of his own, and keep me company. Someone who is smart, funny, and loyal.
Geez, how sappy can one woman get? Think of it this way–if you take me off the market, you will never have to read an ad like this again.
Ok. I will sign up for this. Do I have to perform in front of a video tape at some point? Will there be a obstacle course? Do I have to learn to speak foreign languages? When I get on TV, will dropzone be wearing a shirt and tie of the same color and keep smacking me until I choose the final woman?
Ok. Now to describe myself.
I am 26. I have brown hair and brown eyes. I am a little bit chubby. I am a casual dresser. I don’t like cold weather. I don’t wear outfits made out of balloons. I like blue skies. I like clouds that make animal shapes. I like children’s books. I like all kinds of books. I like poems. I like warm weather. I like hot air ballons, although, I have never been on one. I listen to Cake. I like Jack Benny. I like marshmallow peeps. I like chocolate. I like to listen to Old Time Radio. I like movies. I like Law and Order. I like green beans. I like bacon. I am six foot tall. I like to swim underwater and open my eyes, even if the chlorine/salt hurts. I like sugar, I like jazz. I like Raymond Chandler. I like sterolab. I like Cary Grant. I like Audrey Hepburn. I am in California. I would like to shake a monkey’s hand. I go down to the beach and watch the rain fill the ocean. I like islands. I grew up in Philadelphia. I like Dean Young. I make good peanutbutter and chocolate cookies. I like Groo. I listen to Muppets songs. I watch Blue’s Clues. I have frogs for pets. I have no kids. I have two sisters and a brother. I wear a watch some days. I lost my favorite watch, I wish I could find it.
Some of the kind of People I like.
People who are smarter than me. People who are cooler than me. (Those aren’t hard) People who like to talk about senseless nonsense. People who can have fun. People who like movies. People who are pretty. People who like walking around. People who llke driving around aimlessly. People who know where my watch is. People that don’t live in my toilet bowl. People who know where my clock is. People who don’t mind me going on and on and on. People who have read this far into the post. People who wear silver rings that have neat symbols on them. People who have black hair. People who think I am way funny. People who will buy me circus peanuts. People who can introduce me to monkeys. People who don’t mind looking at the other side of the issue. People who like silent movies. People who make fun of things as a sport. People who can do nothing all day, and feel like it was a great day. People who wear footy pajamas as an adult. People who don’t throw dog biscuits at me.

Sweet Medea,
Any man would bend over backwards for just a glance from you....I’m a divorced Jewish male, 29, 5’0", weigh 130 lbs., with hazel eyes. My hair color is naturally brown, though is rarely so, currently appearing orange with black stripes. You can see an older picture of me on the SDPP.
I live and work in the San Jose area, though I play all around the SF Bay area. I enjoy reading, hiking, dancing, long discussions on almost any subject, massages (giving and receiving), board/card games, etc.
I’m looking for a woman to share time with, to laugh with, to cuddle with. She needs to be willing to challenge her body and mind, and should expect the same from me. Fainting willows and passive-aggressives need not waste their time.
lurker, I don’t need guys to bend over backwards…but we can get to that later…
wicked grin
Seriously, don’t compliment me sweetly, it makes me blush and stumble over words and I don’t know what to do with such dear words.

Now that some potential pairing-up is starting to threaten to happen, I have to throw in my …
