Date men from United States / Alaska / Nome, 31 year old

Date someone special from Alaska, United States. About Who I'm Looking For
While I certainly do have criteria for what I am looking for in a lady, I try not to have too much of a preset picture. By doing that I think we close ourselves off from real experiences with people. But here are some things I like:
- Independent people who have a strong identity.
- I like someone who treats everyone around them well.
About Me
- I enjoy making people laugh. I still haven't figured out if they are laughing at what I say or just at me.
- I'm not as smart as I think I am.
- People expect me to say profound things.
- I'm a good listener.
- I don't care too much about being right and am frequently wrong.
Books
I'm a big reader. If I ever go missing and the search parties go looking for me, they'll probably find me buried in an avalanche of books as the result of a shelf collapse. My reading interests are varied, but for the last few years I've had a weakness for pulp fiction writers of the 1930's. Favorite authors of mine include Robert E. Howard, John Steinbeck, George MacDonald, Kurt Vonnegut, H.P. Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, and G.K. Chesterton.
Cinema
My favorites are pretty eclectic and I'll watch thrillers, comedies, musicals, film noir, science fiction, old black and white romances, fantasy, documentary, and more. A few of my favorite directors are Alfred Hitchcock, Andrei Tarkovsky, Ridley Scott, Sergio Leone, and Stanley Kubrick.
