While I know absolutely nothing about Marketing, I fully recognize that these profiles should ideally inform as well as entertain—does everyone feel the need to state the obvious here, or is it just me?—with that, I’ve tried to be mildly amusing—like a light beer commercial, without the whimsical talking animals… Worldly, eclectic traveler navigating the complexities of life, career, and other myths seeks cohort, muse and lover. Grammatically challenged; inspirationally stymied at times. A tad capricious and arguably fastidious, yet equally tolerant; Serve with a light, airy Chardonnay. Incapable of comprehending complex mathematics, religious fervor, the subtleties of sound personal finance strategies, the appeal of NASCAR or of taking myself seriously. Fraught with imperfections of a minor variety, but self-assured enough to cope with and even proclaim them to an anonymous and unseen jury of my peers. Career-wise, I’ve done all right for myself—having worked internationally (moved back from Switzerland a few years ago) as a systems integrator/project manager. Pinch yourself. It's not a dream...yeah, I never really thought of being one of those when I grew up either, but the demand for train conductors seems to have evaporated and not everyone gets to be the astronaut. Outdoor activities seem to be a popular topic here, so just a few words on that: I love the outdoors and nature, but I’m not an “extremist”. I have been camping. I own camping equipment. Lately though it seems to collect more dust than dirt. I have been snowboarding. Again, I own the equipment and actually enjoy it, but there is little danger of the Olympic Committee knocking on my door—unless they start some sort of outreach program for the skills-challenged. *If you're still awake, you're half way through this, so go get a drink and remember to stretch. You don't want to pull anything...

What am I looking for in a woman...? Unabashed wit and an incorrigible sense of humor are essential--aren't they? You need to be comfortable laughing...at yourself and in the right situation (like a bus station), at others. You should be somewhat worldly and at least have a mild interest in travel and foreign cultures. (Taco Bell, for these, and many other, purposes, does not count.) You probably have an appreciation for art, architecture and design. You have style--maybe it's quirky and unconventional, but at least it's yours! You will hopefully not loathe and despise men with a caustic, yet bone-dry wit--if so, humor him; he's not so bad after all. Ideally, you enjoy independent music, film and thought--or can at least fake it if you had to. You should be "attractive". Although this is generally very important, it's also indefinable. So we'll leave it at that. You should be emotionally stable and have at least an inkling of what you want out of Life. Finally, you should be yourself--unless you're a fugitive, then assuming another identity might work in your favor. Thanks for playing along. Come back often as I'm sure this will be completely rewritten once I get some sort of a clue. Relax. If you're wondering, I don't really talk like this (e.g. "use big words all the time") in Real Life. I just enjoy this writing style and am trying to stand out somewhat, so there! Now, the obligatory mundane part (avert your eyes--you've probably read this elsewhere)...Ideal "Mate": Someone... -I'm attracted to and have great chemistry with. -who's a good listener. -who feels comfortable sharing anything with me and I with her. -who makes me happy when I just think about her. -who "gets" me and appreciates my sense of humor. -who is my best friend, but also respects and appreciates my other friends. Those are all objectives...some of the qualities that I *think* might help in achieving them are: witty, intelligent, attractive, emotionally intelligent, optimistic/positive, cult
