[ul][li]She should be younger than I, since I’ve never seen any reason to grow up.

With that list, I think it won’t be too difficult. I can’t think of many women who wouldn’t want to ride in a plane, motorcycle, or that MG (I would have painted it green). Add in the interest in horror films/make-up and one more plug for your sense of humor, I’d definitely be interested. I’m involved though. Have you considered placing that list on a sandwich board and wearing it with nothing else? That might help you meet your deadline.
Happy Birthday, and good luck to you.
and once again I’m a-asking “how tall are you?”
[huffy]Well, what are CJ and I…chopped liver? See if I ever save your bacon in the entertainment catagory again. Tom Jones, in case you don’t recall…[/huffy]
I call first dibs on the runners up.

And for all you outraged spelling purists out there, I KNOW I spelled category wrong. I hit the wrong button. I can spell, I just can’t READ…as in, the difference between preview and submit.
Anyone smell a potential business?
The SDMB Matchmaking service!
…get in line.
Hey, Scotti. I like chopped liver!
Lobelia Overhill: 5’ 11", last time I checked. I keep thinking I’ll get some inversion boots so I can try for six feet.
cichlidiot: The MG is going to be Old English White with a red interior like my first one. Sure, I’d like red or British Racing Green better, but I’m going for the nostalgia. (Hm… Maybe I should get two more…)
Maybe I should ride down to the pub?
Or maybe not. I found a Guinness while I was waiting for the page to load.
Piece of luck, that!
Johnny, why don’t you shop at match.com & let us know some of the women that interest you? It’s a free search.
You might have better luck calling them women rather than girls
Sorry, I’m already taken, Johnny! By the way, I got me some wheels. But I’m too embarassed to tell you what it is. It could be an 80cc scooter. OK, it is. But damnit, I’m on two wheels, baby, YEAH!
My friend with a Ninja crotch rocket is going to ride with me and she wonders if she’ll even have to put it out of 1st gear.
Move to Bellingham already and we can talk.
I think it’s interesting to see that you need a “younger” woman than yourself. You don’t think there are women your age who also have not grown up? Or are you just talking physically?

(who is not available anyway, but just thought I’d butt in)
JillGat: Of course there are women my age that have not grown up. I just haven’t met any recently. I think guys tend to stay “immature” longer than women (IMO), and yet most of the guys I know live a “grown up” lifestyle. Not to say that I’m irresponsible; I just like it when people think I’m not.
I did have a g/f who was older than I, and she was a lot of fun. We’d do all sorts of things together: ride motorcycles, go to airshows, putter around in my old Willys (the '48 I used to have – not the '46 I have now), snow ski, fly, and just hang out.
Okay, good. And thanks for clarifying which Willys it was. - Jill
looks like you’re describing me, Johnny…
Wow, I almost fit the bill (er…Johnny).
Flying machines (especially spaceships)…check.
Cars and cycles (especially off road)…check.
Morbid and slapstick humor…check.
I made a digital movie during my trip to Machu Picchu recently so I guess that makes me an independent filmmaker…check.
Late 20s to early 30s…sorry, can’t help you there.
Better luck next time.
Mmmm white with a red interior MG…oops, I mean mmmmm ** Johnny L.A.**
Look me up the next time you’re in Ontario, 'kay?
I’m just looking for a lover who won’t drive me crazy.
