In a month, I often read two books or more; when I go out I'm usually on time.
I like watching movies if I must stay in; that suited my parents just fine.
When I worked, it was just how I earned all the wealth I'm now spending to brighten my days
But now I'm retired and live in a town where it's so nice I'm planning to stay.

I like lots of kids, or perhaps none at all, I don't think it matters a lot.
If they wanted adventure, we'd cruise on my boat, or give whitewater rafting a shot.
On Saturday night, I'd much rather go to a popular new movie show.
To get exercise, I will ride my new bike, or walk where I'm planning to go.

When going out someplace to eat, I'd prefer a hole in the wall with great food.
If I wanted to spend a week far away, New Zealand would surely sound good.
A candle-lit restaurant is my kind of place while pursuing a quiet romance.
I'd dress for the date if I knew what to wear, so I'd have to be told in advance.

I hate superstitions; I prefer smarter folks, and ladies who have lots of time
To go with me if I have to go out of town; long distance love seems like a crime.
A person might have several soul mates it seems; but lucky to find even one.
What friends might think proper won't matter at all, who cares how they like to have fun?

I go bargain hunting at local flea shops; I usually don't get caught surprised.
A sensible person avoids getting hurt, and stays put, if he's lucky and wise.
I trust other people 'til they prove me wrong, but then it is hard to forgive.
I most prefer having a lot of respect, which I think is how we should all live.

I consider myself quite content, for I've reached all my goals while I was getting old.
I'm not often jealous, but once in a while, if I'm loved I would like to be told.
I've lived by myself for most of my life, but need romance to really feel dear.
I must confess I don't really enjoy not having a nice lady near.

I avoid confused people as much as I can, like those who are freaky or gay.
In the places I come from, the men are all men; and the women all like 'em that way.
I freely admit I think women are great, I like them to look and smell nice,
Just because I am old I don't believe being thankful for them is a vice.

My views about sex are: adults all should have encounters as often and varied
As the partners would like, as long as it's with the persons to whom they are married.
I'm completely committed to fidelity; a guy should sleep just with his wife.
I'm responsible, but I think one should enjoy the things he's acquired in his life.

I think breaking up is regrettably sad, with one partner hurt and betrayed.
I'm afraid I might marry the wrong kind of girl, a mistake I once already made.
Within the first couple of new person dates, I look for that "chemistry" thrill.
I don't like long car trips with folks I don't know, and I don't think that I ever will.

My kids have moved out, so I'm well rid of stress. I find it easy and fun
To talk about things that others might not, and let somebody else get things done.
I love to hold hands, hug and kiss and make out and eat just enough to be healthy.
I try to laugh often, as much as I can; I'll get serious when I am wealthy.

I sometimes get caught in a friendly debate, but I can't say I really employ them.
I don't see the point of competitive sports and, I don't know why people enjoy them.
I exercise once in the course of a week (well, maybe two......or perhaps three).
And now that I've finally run out of space.......... That is all I can say about me!
