not much anymore, since I'm a disabled veteran type with not much money or energy. I still, as always, like to fix, design, build, create...read, write, meditate.

peircings, know-it-allness, loud chewing/chomping.

red hair, freckles, humility, arrogance, snuggling , affection, honesty, loving my kids (just mine, most are pains in the arses), loving animals, tattoos (but only some can pull it off), a serious appreciation of movies, ability to carry on a conversation that involves more than superficial nonsense, spiritual...I'll add to this later.

The nicest ah-noos you will ever meet. I would sacrifice my life for anyone who needs me to, and I would choke the life out of someone who is preying on someone weaker. I hate BS, PCness, and people talking without knowing what the hell they're talking about. I love machines, fixing, building, designing, creating. I will go from wrenching on my truck to sewing something to doing the dishes, whatever needs to be done.

I did 8 years as an enlisted sailor, then I decided I wanted to do more so I applied, got selected, did Officer boot camp, and became an Officer. I did the best job in the world, a Naval Officer fixing jets on an aircraft carrier, for a few more years. After a disabling motorcycle accident, I medically retired, the wife left, I did a bankruptcy, moved down here to be around for the kids' teenage years, and after a bit, met the current girlfriend.

I am currently uncertain about life and where I will be led next. I am apprehensive, but accepting of whatever God leads me to do. It may suck, but as I always say, Such Is Life.

Any moment I had for a time, before life made it impossible for more moments.
