Okay, raise your hand if you read alot of profiles but then never get many of them to write you...if your hand is up for one, no one but you can see that and you might feel a bit odd, secondly, drop me a line......LO​L
If you would like to be added to my freind list send a request, I amy or may not accept it.
Let me preface my list here:
******* I am not 94, although I do not think it should matter if I was 94, and if you have a problem with people's age, do not bother to write to me. If for some reason you are here trying to hook up with people take it to a dating site, I personally am here to write and write alot and write to people who in this world still give a crap about normal communicatio​n*******
Make time for the ones you love now, you may not get to make that time up later.
How much of a loss it would be if I did not listen to the younglings around me who look at the future and how sad it would be not to hear the words of the elders around me who teach me of the past...guidi​­ng me not to repeat their mistakes and misfortunes.​
- That day, she was amazed to discover that when he was saying "As you wish", what he meant was, "I love you." And even more amazing was the day she realized she truly loved him back.~ Princess Bride
Now make sure you read everything and then leave a WALL post....It only takes a few seconds and it always brightens up peoples days....or else you just become a snooper....
    Be a good listener. Your ears will never get you in trouble.
    I still consider you, do you still consider me?
    My dogs are worried because canned dog food cost 3 dollars which is like 21 dollars in dog money.
    If you miss something, you have to have had it and still care about it!
    In the event you read a typo, please let me know.....If you leave a wall post, leave a long one...
    Okay, so if I have a little charliehorse​, is it just a chuckypony? just wondering...​

    A TRUE friend does not tell you what you WANT to hear, they tell you what you NEED to hear, even when you do not like to hear it.
    Not to be rude, but if you do NOT want to be treated as an object, do NOT display yourself as one....

*** NO I am not 94, I am a dad and my wife and I have hosted several foreign exchange students and are foster parents as well.***

    It takes years to develop trust and mere seconds to destroy it!

(you want to leave a wall post)

The three most commonly posted wall words "HOW ARE YOU" ? Often asked by those who do not really care.

Two cannibals are sitting eating soup and one cannibal looks at the other and says "I really do not like my mother-in-law"​. The second cannibal says "that's​ okay just eat the noodles"​....dadumpda​

NEW STATISTICAL DATA:
90% of all statistics can be made to say anything, 50% of the time~ TV commercial~!​
^# Currently less than 4.1% of all views of my profile have left a wall post or sent a PM, but those who have at least are interesting.​ #^ Help Increase that percentage and if you read this far leave a wall post.....
99.8% of everyone else has music in their search terms. Music is truly Universal, second only to FOOD!
95% of all pen pals are looking for more than just a pen pal and would like to find a good friend. The majority of females under 18 are looking for someone to flirt with, a good reason to avoid chatting with older people.
80% of women choose humor as an attractive attribute, 20% of men are acutally funny! 40% attempt to be and 20% are just plain ridiculous.
Over 72% of people do not judge people by most attributes, BUT *age and where they are from* are the two most common discriminati​ons. 85% of females will not write to older guys, whereas 17% of guys will not write to older women, so coyotes and cougars look out!
55% of all penpals have requested to meet a pen pal at some point or would like to meet them at some point. Friendly relationship​s last longer than romantic ones.
****78% of men define 'housework' as woman's work, but they are also the guys who are left out in the cold, due to their inability to assist in running a home and/or a relationship​.....ROFL***​*
Over 90% of men react to the photo of a person and will write to females who write nothing but have a attracive photo, women on the other hand will also respond more likely to a attractive photo of a guy, but then will expect a decent corresponden​ce for continuing to write. SO GUYS try to learn things to write about.

I would like a penpal who will write. I do not care what your age, race ,religion or such is, as long as you can be polite and write often. Try to have something in common, although I am so varied (eclectic)th​at I can discuss almost any topic.

Oh and if you can not be honest and open, do not bother to write. I was born, but I was not born yesterday!

SCAMMERS, SPAMMERS and CYBER SICKOS WILL BE REPORTED AND DELETED! In that order!

Due to some changes in work and home, I am not as on as much as I would like to be.

DUE to the EXTREME Price rise in gas, I had to call into work poor, and that I could no longer afford to drive in more than 4 times per week....ROFL​ (that may be true soon for some)
The high price of gas does not bother me, it is PAYING the price that gets me....

Try this: THINK of a number between one and seven. Add 2 to the number. Next multilpy it times 9.
Next add the two digits together
(example: if your number is 34 then add 3 and 4)
Now subtract 5.
You should have a single digit number!
Each letter in the english alphabet has a correspondin​g number, 1=a, 2=b, 3=c, 4=d, 5=e, 6=f.
Find the letter for your number.
Think of a U.S. State that starts with that letter.
Next, take the second letter of the State and think of a large animal, like a circus animal, that starts with that letter......​..Got it?

How come I have bookmarked 11 people and have been bookmarked by tons....mayb​e I am too exclusive and picky. Or as someone wrote me a better term, Protective!
People who enjoy writing, from basic daily things to extensive and often obtuse information about local areas and existential life's goals.

Opinions are always welcome, I will review them and agree or disagree. Points to ponder, if you can not put what you want to say in a clear semi-polite manner, it will be ignored, since I avoid ignorance and confrontatio​n with unarmed opponents.

Do not ask me for anything other than being a pen pal and type clearly and please not in all capital letters or odd abbreviation​s. I do not see well and do not care to hurt my eyes on odd typing.

If you send me a romantic request I will show it to my wife and we will both laugh! If you request money, I will laugh and than have you deleted! If you want sex you are on the WRONG site! hence the term PENPAL! Try something like -date-a-dork​.com you might have better luck. If you are older and making advances to younger people, that is just plain sick and disgusting and you should be removed from this site, or worse in my opinion.....​.
*unless you specifically​ plan on being a surrogate, you are wasting your time attempting to extract money, if you want to be a surrogate, feel free to contact me with references, there are very specific requirements​ you will have to meet*

Lets be honest, what we have as interests and hobbies is not alwqays what we can get time to go do in life. I could list fishing and the ocean and despite living close to it does not mean I get to always enjoy them, most of us spend more time inside doing work or seeing TV while we accomplish more tasks we have to do, be we all have hobbies and interests and we all would like to do more, given time to do them.
Very currently taking care of a new baby.....(fo​ster care) and BTW I am extremely protective of kids if you could not already tell.
Currently I have no hobbies per se, except I stay busy working, at work at home, keeping things in order and attempting to make it through each day, which in turn can be quite a busy schedule.

Lets see what can I list as good interests:
- Older style films from the 70's -
- Non-Sports cards, from Fantasy Art to disney-
- Sunshine days when it is not too humid so I can do things in the yard-
- Observing human activity and interactions​-
- Coins, not expensive ones, just the idea of coins in general, *send me some from your area if you want* -
- Stellar Exploration,​ okay not to narrow it down, but mostly dealing with anything out beyond the Kuiper belt -
- Writing stories and poetry-(some​times reading and critiquing others writing)
-Biggest Interest is my WIFE, so for those who keep wanting to marry me, um the answer is still NO!, If you would like you can submit a request to her and if she in turn approves it then I will run off and marry you, please fill out a one-D-ten-T form.....1D1​0T.-
- I find tatoos interesting,​ although I have not a single one, I often thought of getting one flesh color, then it would only show up when I get a tan.-

Currently science believes in black holes and maybe even white holes....so I have interpreted the idea of grey holes....jus​t so I can claim the term first..."​Look, Tox invented the Grey holes!"​

Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, 60's to present music, except anything that has a bass sound that vibrates the skin cells, that is just plain annoying.
Pink Floyd - A gunners Dream
Byran Adams - Everything I do
Moody Blues - Want to be with you
Eddie and the Cruisers -Tender Years
DR. DEMENTOS!
Blue October -hate me!

By the way music over 84 decibels causes hearing loss.
I have spare space here, so I might decide to use it for other reasons.

As an example, it is often the communicatio​n that makes us who we are and the lack of communicatio​n that demonstrates​ people's worth, which in turn would mean that currently my worthiness plummeted in the eyes of some.

- Star Wars - All of them
- Logan's Run - There is an older one for ya!
- Dr Zhivago - Classics are best
- Bless the beast and the children - same name as the Carly Simon song

I am rather selective to choose one favorite.

I know I have a huge amount of extra space here to add more "other"​ data things:

To those who read this and know, I live each day with a pain that will not now be resolved due to lies and torments, yet my lamenting about them has no direct assistance and so I shall just be as I am and deal with my loss in my own way.

Maybe, pringles really wanted to make tennis balls and one day a load of potatoes showed up so the were like heck lets cut them up~ comedian on comedy central!

I may be lacking tact, but that is because I am honest, would you prefer I lie or be less tactful?

I am sad because I allowed you to hurt my feelings, I should have known better, I should have realized~ Me

I love you for not how you make me feel, but how I feel about myself when I think of you!~ to my Mrs.
Do NOT make me promises unless you plan on keeping them.

What lies behind us and what lies before is is small compared to what lies within us.~unknown to me

I rely on myself, for it is I alone that I can trust.
SOAPBOX:
As I stand here on my new soapbox, let me inform you of the important issues of life.
Dear non-pen pallers, those who want to marry me, etc.....You are not going to Make me happy, I am happy inside myself and you are not going to win me over from my wife, her smile is the only one I want to see, her eyes are the only ones I want to wake to each day. Do not tell me how you can cook, clean and take care of me, I can do that for myself, oh yeah that is because I am a real guy, who knows how to cook, clean, do laundry, take out the trash, feed the kids and still find time to spend discussing the day. Do not tell me how you are sooo good in bed, to me that means you can not get your butt out of it long enough to accomplish anything in life...Try being really good at walking, swimming, gardening and having fun instead, maybe then you will find someone or something compatible. Oh yeah try being yourself, in case you are unsure of who that is, find yourself first before you try to find someone else, you can not truly love until you can first love yourself, you can not see beauty, until you truly know what it is and happiness exists ONLY inside ones own mind, others do not make you happy.....
One other point while I am up here....(for​ the few who do not know what a soapbox is, go google it), truth is facts, and fiction is the spewed piles of deception you try to tell yourself to live by. If you can not be yourself, then save your time attempting to become a friend, I do not care to waste my precious time on this planet listening to a pile of deceptions and mendacity, I can be empathetic, but sympathy is in the dictionary between shite and syphilis....​....and for good reason. I may lack tact, but that is because my brutal honesty has a tendency to exist where it should, I may say what you need to hear, not what you want to hear; Oh yeah I am entitled to that, my views and my opinions, which by the way are more than likely correct. If you can not have the ability of morality (ethics, decency, goodness, and integrity) toward others, then go ahead and save your typing, it might get read, but I am more than sure it will be ignored and deleted after that....
*steps down and bows*

Friends help you, best friends help you bury the body......RO​FL

If you got this far, AT LEAST leave a POST! If you are compatible, please feel free to PM me.......

Answer for the math above....
Well there are not any ELEPHANTS found in DELEWARE!

Final advice: Never argue with idiots, they bring you down to their level and beat you with experience..​..

Define "real"​ for from what I have seen, the definition appears quite skewed!
