The Emotional Road Trip Through Life

I'm Seeking A Lifetime Committed and Loving Partnership

Since my ex and I went our separate ways now 8 months ago, I now feel emotionally prepared to have a loving and committed long term relationship come back into my life. I personally am very unhappy with the web sites I've seen out there to find a husband/life partner. The majority of those web sites deal with the size of your penis and the amount of hair on your face/body more than they speak to what goes into having a life partnership is all about. They also concentrate on what position you like to have sex in. Can you say top or bottom? Or are you a Bear or a young little cubbie? I thought that since I happen to have my own web site so I'll place my personal ad here and say what I want to say about myself and what I want in a husband/life partner. .

For myself I am 49. I live in Palm Beach County, Florida,and by the way, my birthday is September 11, 1958, great birthday huh? Let me tell you the saddest birthday I ever had was in 2001 because of what happed at the World Trade Centers that day. I’m 6’4 and 237 lbs (down from 350 lbs) have hazel eyes, full beard and mustache and nice hairy legs. Just so you know I am totally in love with Rachael Ray’s 30-Minute Meals and love to spend time in the kitchen cooking all of the recipes that have become my favorites. And I can testify that they are figure/wallet friendly and very easy to make in yes in only 30 minutes. Some time, let's say next summer, I'd like to take my life partner on a long road trip to all of the great places I’ve seen on Alton Brown’s Feasting on Asphalt and on the Today shows segment of the most beautiful places in America and to take a drive along the Pacific Coast Highway in California. This is great show and it highlights all the great little mom and pop restaurants, diners and dives all across this great big country of ours that truly have been forgotten and very much overlooked thanks to all the big fast food chains out there. I know it will be an exciting adventure and great fun for the two of us to just pack up the car and drive around the country to experience all of these great restaurants for ourselves. I’d also like us to take trips to New York to see Broadway plays and to go to Chicago/Boston’s Fenway Park to see the city and as many baseball games as possible and then on to San Francisco to have some authentic sour dough bread. I’d also like us to take a trip over to Paris just to have a picnic on a lovely Saturday afternoon.

Please know that my interests do extend beyond Thanksgiving and Christmas. Were it possible to throw my relatives a culinary curve ball I'd serve an Indian Korma for Christmas dinner instead of turkey and all the trimmings. That and make a sweet potato puree instead of traditional mashed potatoes. This change in menu would instantly be met with looks of horror and dismay were they prepared and set out on the buffet table on Thanksgiving Day. So, for now, I'll just have to stick with good old tried and true menu for my family come Thanksgiving and Christmas. Now please don't get me wrong I'm not culinarilly inflexible, I just know from experience not to change the menu for these very special occasions. All the other days of the year I can experiment and go culinarilly wild as I care to with my favorite new recipes and ingredients.

An Invitation

The Yellow Brick Road of Life

This is my invitation to you to, put on your ruby slippers, do you have a pair in your closet Dorothy, and come take a walk with me on what I'm calling the yellow brick road of life. And yes I was just watched this beloved film, The Wizard of Oz, that has been loved by children and gays of all ages for nearly 80 years now. The film will turn 70 in 2009 and 75 in 2014 just so you know that for the next time you make an appearance on Jeopardy!

Dorothy had some very meaningful and wonderful adventures during her time/trip on the yellow brick road. She encountered some very nice and not so nice people along the way. For example: the wicked witch of the West, whom she would later on in the movie liquidate literally, with that bucket of water that was oh so conveniently left on that ledge for her to find and toss onto the wicked witch of the West when she lit the scarecrow on fire with the end of her broomstick. That in turn melted the witch and Dorothy was then able to present the broomstick to The Wizard of Oz so that he would send her back to Kansas. As it turns out you need a fairy to help you get home or at least Glenda the witch of the North who told Dorothy to click her heels together three times and say "There's no place like home" and in only three seconds Dorothy was back home in Kansas with her loved ones. I've often wondered when Dorothy turned 21 did she go off to college to get her degree or ever get married and move away from home?

Do I have a great sense of humor or what? Anyway, what I'm looking for here a life partnership that will last for the rest of our lives. So come join me on the yellow brick road of life. Just like Dorothy let's find out together what kind of life wonderful and meaningful life adventures we can have on the yellow brick road of life. So as Kermit the frog would say if only he were here, let's make that rainbow connection and find out what's on the other side. Care to join me?

Here is a picture of myself and my 7 year old niece Sara Beth taken at her birthday part this March. She's such a cutie!

I'm extending my exclusive and very personal invitation to you to come take a walk with me on/through what I'm calling the yellow brick road of life. Please click on the windmill below and tell me about yourself and what you want out of life and a life partner. Maybe you'll be in the car with me next summer driving down the yellow brick road of life with me. Also know that family and friends are the foundations and cornerstones of my life and I'm looking forward to sharing my family and our celebrations with you.
