Date men from United States / California / Sunnyvale, 57 year old

Date a soulmate from Sunnyvale, United States. Once ( long time ago) voted one on San Francisco's most eligible bachelors, I was actually published in a
book. You want to laugh, take a peek when we meet.. This time downgraded to just breathing eligible bachelor. ( read on)
Fortunately, I think I know myself very well and I know the type of woman I want to grow old with. , so here it goes:
Me
Humorous, affectionate, intelligent, hard working, passionate, family oriented, loyal, monogamous.
I have been lucky enough to have Lots of life experience
I have toured Europe in a motorcycle, scuba dove in the Red Sea and Tahaiti and fished for Marlin in Guatemala, rode an elephant in Thailand and have been invited to and have been received at Presidential palaces. I speak 12 languages,some better than others, hold a black belt in Karate, have earned my private airplane pilots license and appeared on the David Letterman Show. I have had conversations with Robert De Niro, Lee Marvin,, Orson Bean and Herschel Walker, played golf with Steve Guttenberg and raquetball with Al Franken. I worked with Howard Stern and Don Imus for over 4 years.
Former class body builder and power lifter, intercollegiate gymnast on full scholarship, I served my country as an officer and a gentleman. I am educated (West Point), employed ( automobile exec at Toyota)
So whats wrong with me?
1. I cant cook ( but I am the king of omelets and make great buttermilk biscuits. If you are very good, I would hand feed you in bed on Sunday morning)
2. bad handwriting ( I should have been a doctor)
3. I act like a child when I am sick ( like most men)
4. I am a man, which makes me a project to begin with.
5. lousy singer ( but I have the moves)
But I know how to treat a woman as a lady and I must say that I am an outstanding caring, gentle, patient and careful lover. I am definitely looking for a LTR, so help me get off this service I don't want to be on line dating more than one day more than I have to. I thrive on loving smiles, good conversation, humor and affection. So what are you waiting for?
How to find me: Write, call, skywriting, send a bat signal, open your door and let your cooking smells out, or go to Los Gatos on my days off in the early morning, and join me for coffee and strawberries ( only evil people hate strawberries) at a well known coffee shop on main st or at the farmers market on Sunday( hint in good weather, I drive a pretty motorcycle) just dress divinely.
Her:
Rromantic, kind, gentle, pretty, slim or athletic build, feminine, affectionate, forgiving, enjoying her doors opened for her, offers to cook me a meal once in a while. Equipped with legs, dresses, heels, jeans, nice smile and good breath. A part time or full time girly girl. Likes what she see in the mirror, a little make up and perfume goes a long way in my book. Enjoying the view from the back of my big comfortable motorcycle, my small Prius or my broad shoulders and muscular arms. The rest of the story is on the news at 11 or over a latte at Starbucks or sushi. Your choice.
Her not:
Drama queen, angry, serial dater,serial killer, enjoys online dating, showers less than once a week, less than 3 teeth,cold,not ready, willing and able to have the most meaning relationship of her life, non kisser, less than 50 IQ, no sense of humor or blind enough not to see that I am a gorgeous hunky guy( ok handsome, ok decent looking,ok somewhat human looking)
bottom line:
I am a very decent youthful looking middle aged energetic and active man,who should be considered a good catch.I am very honest about everything I have shared about myself and would expect you to do the same.Are you up for trying me on for size?I dont want to waste one more minute of my life not being in love,do you?
I hope I have given you the gist of my persona.I dont want to write a book about myself, But if you are into novels,try reading some of the profiles on line.I hear there is some very creative individuals here.

Meet someone special from Sunnyvale, United States. I am a guy who has seen a lot of complex things, and now I know that you don't need a lot to be happy.
I have become a great fan of simplicity. I don't need fancy clothes, fancy cars, fancy restaurants to bring happiness into my life. of course, that may be because I have my son, who bring so much happiness into my life that I don't need to go seeking.
Some people might call me a workaholic. If so, it's because they don't know that all the stuff I do for work is genuinely enjoyable to me. Usually when someone asks me about a vacation, I get a blank look and start wondering what I could be doing that's better than what I do every day. I guess I could travel and do it in a different place. :-) You can find out more about that when we meet.
All I am looking for is someone who likes simple things. Making dinner together or sneaking off to that cheapo restaurant that our high-class friends don't even want to admit that they know about. Volunteering to help those less fortunate, but not with a superior attitude. Building something that we don't know how to build. Watching the rain, or watching the sun go down (you don't need a horizon). Best of all: Making lemonade, pancakes or tomato sandwiches (but not together).
But I digress...
