Date men and women from Los Angeles, United States. I’m a joyful and passionate man who has spent a lifetime in the creative arts. While intensely serious about my craft, my M.O. is completely irreverent and playful.
Inspired by humor and beauty, I’m eternally curious about the world - actively seeking out experiences that provide surprise and delight.
A student of my passions, I truly love food, wine, basketball and arts that push the envelope.
Bi-coastal for a good portion of my adult life, I have strong, ongoing ties to NYC and the Bay Area, as well as here in LA. I cherish my friends, a number of whom I have known since kindergarten.
The natural world continuously awes me - walks/hikes through the desert, beach, and mountains all work Big Time.
I am forthright, provocative, and out of the box. If you are looking for someone Middle of the Road, immediately make your way to the next profile. On the other hand, if you’re searching for an evolved, self examined soul to laugh your ass off with while exploring the mysteries of life, I could be your guy.
I'm looking for a partner who is curious and passionate about life. An open woman who desires a constantly evolving relationship that is soulful, intellectually stimulating and full of laughter. A confident woman with strong opinions, who has carved out her own style and has edge. A woman who desires long, in depth, multi layered discussions - but feels as comfortable simply holding her lover’s hand without uttering a sound while staring at the magnificence of the ocean - knowing that sometimes, words are superfluous.

Date men and women from California, United States. "may my mind stroll about hungry
and fearless and thirsty and supple
and even if it's sunday may i be wrong
for whenever men are right they are not young"
-- e.e. cummings
Middle age is upon me (yikes! - assuming one lives to 100???). Young at heart, look forward to surprises that lie beyond the bend, curious as to what new things can be learned. I've a wide array of interests. Patient to a fault, calm, accommodating of others, adaptable, respectful, introspective, good listener, and capable of saying "I'm sorry" when I'm wrong.
As Match no longer provides 'About me' sections regarding 'body art' or 'piercings,' I think it only fair to provide full disclosure. I have one pierced ear (very small loop) and two visible tattoos on the inner margins of both forearms (neither is large, obnoxious, nor of questionable content).
I'm a marine biologist, with a fun job of research and occasional teaching, ranging from the study of marine organisms to philosophy of science. I've traveled the world, love exploring all aspects of cultures, and meeting people. Love reading, hiking, snorkeling (especially in tropical seas), visiting museums, movies, shopping (yes, shopping), nice restaurants as well as dives, or just hanging out.
I admit it, I have my geeky side. But that's easily mediated by impromptu silliness or prim and proper presence. I can be a bit shy, albeit I have no problem giving a lecture to an international crowd who'll no doubt disagree with what I say (I love healthy disagreement!).
I'm a big fan of both dogs and cats (as well as just about any other sorts of pets).
I seek one who loves to communicate, both verbally and physically. A big fan of cuddling. A person not afraid of commitment or intimacy, and regards a relationship as the ongoing process of two people growing together - the art of the partnership, so to speak.
Meet a soulmate from California, United States. Hello my name is Michael and I am a Plumber. I am 5'10" about 175lbs dark with freckles. I have three kids two boys and a girl. I am looking for a wife somewhat a first lady if you know what I mean. Yes soon to be a Paster. GOD is good to me and a amn that finds a wife finds a good thing.
Date single man from California, United States. I appreciate the women who somehow manage, within Match's confining boxes, to say something unexpected or cliche-flipping or thought provoking or (and I'm being deadly serious here) goofy. Maybe it doesn't even make sense to look in a profile for anything beyond the pictures, and some raw data, since everything presented will be trumped by a first conversation and, if the fates decree, a first meeting. Besides, upon entry into the field of romance [at the northwest corner of Friendship Drive and Pheromone Alley] I seek to be a man of all things that speak louder than words.
Music historians presently rank me 38th among the contestants claiming to have been the "Fifth Beatle."
For the right woman, I'd gladly prepare risotto d'asperges vertes, huile de truffes blanches et parmesan. Perhaps for dessert a little terrine de fruits rouges au champagne, glace au thym citronne. I've never made either one before, but I assure you I have the recipes, and I believe in on-the-job training.
If (as some of you have written) you seek a partner in crime, your smart move would be to pass on me and hold out until Professor Moriarty posts a profile on this website.
Let me pause in this promotional announcement to say I'm a great listener. But enough about you ....
My instant list of stuff I like, especially to share: Beethoven's odd-numbered symphonies, Jimmy Page's riff at the beginning of "Over The Hill"; a coffee table book of Paul Klee's art that always settled me down when I was a kid; Metta World Peace's three point shots (for better or worse) during the Lakers' playoff runs; shooting you a knowing glance; honest-to-God Santa Maria barbecue at Jocko's in Nipomo, or the Hitching Post in Casmalia; stumbling upon California's one horse towns (like Nipomo) or 0.6 horse towns (like Casmalia); the vintage map gallery on Beauchamp Place in Knightsbridge, near Harrod's; playing basketball in the old gym at Rustic Canyon park; counting towers in San Gimignano; playing second base ... or getting there; hiking in Point Reyes; riding on the back of a truck across the Serengeti during the great migration; tuna tataki at Matsuhisa; joining in the regional argument about the Argentine vs. Brazilian vs. Paraguayan sides of Iguazu Falls; dashing in the 5 a.m. blackness to the crest of a Himalayan trail, just in time to see the dawn break over Annapurna; jambalaya at the Farmer's Market; dogs; cats; Billy Wilder; body surfing; Evelyn Waugh; french dip sandwiches at Phillippe's; Charles Mingus; appearing annoyed by but secretly enjoying sophomoric come-ons ("please, it's just part of my initiation at I Phelta Thi"); Dorothy Parker; drinks at Terranea; asking a Roman local, in my guidebook Italian, "Dov'e Piazza Navona?" when I'm standing in the middle of it; Alfred Hitchcock; playing tennis (though assuredly not Alfred Hitchcock playing tennis); Henri Matisse; Dodger Stadium; river rafting in Jackson Hole; David Bowie; Ricky Gervais; the entire menu at Comme Ca; exploring local architecture like Union Station, the Bradbury Building, or the late Ships Coffee Shop (where you could toast your own toast); the California State Poppy Reserve in April; Chico Marx; and fresh pineapple juice.
I dream of a woman who not only endorses my list, but guides me daily in its expansion ... who is a practitioner of the crooked smile, the kind word, the kiss on the back of the neck ... and who somehow divines -- in those quiet, contemplative, almost spiritual moments -- that in the next half-second we're going to pounce like wolverines and tear each other's clothes off.
Meet a man from California, United States. I like learning and experiencing new things, seeing new places and meeting new people. I am equally adept at enjoying simple things around the house or seeing something exotic 6,000 miles away. It's the most fun and exciting planning and sharing that feeling with someone special.
On relationships, I think we all would agree that no two people are the same and totally 100% compatible all the time ... So I believe what is needed for a great "lasting" relationship is a bit of compromise, some flexibility, lots of communication, honesty, trust, humor, some creativity and of course love... but all the while still maintaining a bit of our independence.
Come on now... That can't be so hard...can it?
I like to think that I am honest, funny, supportive and active. I think I'm a confident and smart guy ... but nobody's perfect, so I don't mind a little feedback in everything I do to make me better, more fun or intelligent. We should never stop learning and getting better with ourselves. My friends all tell me I'm the nicest guy around. Friends never lie... lol
I like someone that has many of my interests but also brings and shares some different interests and thoughts to the table as well.
I like to laugh and smile... I'm a bit of a jokester so I love a good sense of humor and the ability to laugh at oneself and have a good time. I enjoy someone that loves a formal evening out or just a fun picnic, day or weekend trip...and from a long vacation to an evening at home. We can put our heads together and decide. I'll try most anything at least once and I have fun in pretty much everything I do. I love simple or fancy/exciting times.
It’s all about balance in life that keeps it interesting.
I like a person who is serious about life but can also let their hair hang down, relax and just let it roll too. I always like to try to promote an equal relationship as I certainly don't confess to know everything. I always remember the old saying... "Two heads are better than one" ... and since I've only got one ... I want yours right next to mine.
And when you're with me and in the rare instance that you feel I’m getting a little cocky or out of line... just smack me one upside the head... I'll come around. LOL (Just kidding... I'm totally not into violence)
I'm located in the West LA are near Venice blvd, right across the street from Sony Studios. I'm freeway close and I've got a full tank of gas .. LOL.
Let’s talk text or email a bit first and then meet up and spend a few minutes together. I like to talk... sometimes I can't shut up... LOL. But I listen well too.
And hey, the worst case scenario is we meet and we're not right for each other and we move on...Its OK. But the upside is that we hit it off, run off together and live happily ever after :-) It's what dreams are made of.
"Take me ... I'm yours"!! .... LOL. Oh Lord I think I'm losing my mind.
I was married 25 years and Im looking for a great relationship again to hopefully last the rest of my life.
Well the time has come ... that's the end of my story...thanks for stickin with me.
But actually it’s only the end for now. Maybe we can continue the story together and write our own chapters as we get to know each other. Start out as friends and then if it feels right shoot for the moon. Are ya with me? You've got to meet someone, spend some time together, see some body language, gaze into their eyes, laugh/smile, talk in person and then maybe a gentle kiss to really get to know them.
I'm up for it ... are you? So what are we waiting for ? This is no time to be shy... LOL (just being silly)
Seriously, in closing ... I just enjoy meeting people and hope to find one. We'll talk and laugh and you'll get home safely just before the clock strikes midnight LOL ... hopefully with us wanting to meet again.
So for now... sayonara, adios, good-bye.
