My self-summary
Write a little about yourself. Just a paragraph will do.
I'm reasonably intelligent and fit, tolerant and open-minded, straight but not narrow. I am utterly silly and hilariously cynical. I like to cook, I enjoy traveling and being outside, I love listening to and playing jazz (I play trumpet and sax), but I also enjoy blues, classic rock, Celtic, funk, Flamenco...the list (and the music) goes on. I have a lot of fun playing at being a photographer - even if I'm not a "pro", whatever that means, it has at least taught me to pay more attention to all the beauty (both great and small) in the world. I have a hard time avoiding too many parenthetical statements when I write. I prefer cats to dogs, though dogs are cool too. I see no reason why one is required to believe in some sort of Supreme Being or Omnipotent Father-Figure in order to maintain a sense of honesty and integrity and be kind and considerate to everyone. I also think this sort of self-summarizing is practically impossible to do well, and if you haven't clicked the Back button yet I'd prefer to get to know each other over a beverage or snack.
What I’m doing with my life
Stripping away the BS, bit by bit, day by day, year by year...
I’m really good at
Playing Well With Others. ...Mostly.
The first things people usually notice about me
I’m an empty essay… fill me out!
I'm bald, bearded, have permanent laugh lines, and I've got a good voice.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Help your potential matches find common interests.
I like books, movies, music, and food. There, I've admitted it! I know that's a controversial attitude, but I stand by my words.

I know that's pretty vague. But my tastes are so eclectic - i.e. "all over the map" - that it's tough to delineate them in a meaningful, nutshell way. I like both fiction and non-fiction, foreign films and Hollywood blockbusters, all sorts of music, and Portland's many amazing restaurants offering just about every kind of cuisine ... does that help?
The six things I could never do without
Maslow's Hierarchy? No? OK then, how about: basic necessities, humor, the never-ending quest for knowledge, music, and my camera. I know that's less than six things, but screw you man, I'm a rebel!!!
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Keeping whimsy and silliness in my life. What is it about society - or Life in general? - or something, that too often squeezes all the juice and verve out of so many of us over-40 crowd? Do we get caught up in the necessities of creating a career and raising kids, and in the process forget how to be goofy and enthusiastic and child-like? Do we get so disappointed about not keeping the bodies and energy of our youth that we just give up? Does the burden of the awareness of encroaching mortality suck out whatever liveliness is still left in us? Is it the death of childhood dreams? Can we not reassess, create new goals, and continue to reach beyond our grasp? Is there some reason that many of us stop learning and being surprised and constantly delighted by new knowledge? Is Social Convention really so inexorable an encumbrance?

Also, y'know, World Hunger and Climate Change and War and Equality and stuff.
On a typical Friday night I am
"Living for the weekend"? Searching for a Life with Authenticity and Meaning? Re-watching Monty Python videos? Define "typical". On a typical Friday night I am...being me on a Friday night. Moving on....
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
I’m an empty essay… fill me out!
"Cranston Snord" is not my real name.

Spoiler alert: I have no creepy or dashingly romantic secrets.
You should message me if
Offer a few tips to help matches win you over.
you're smart and smart-assed, wise and goofy, you know a thing or two about a thing or two, are committed to honesty and communication, and are appropriately grown-up for your years yet you're still willing to let your inner child come out and play. And you have a high tolerance for puns. And you don't have to love the Three Stooges, but you're okay with the fact that they WILL make me giggle inanely sometimes.
