What kind of person are you?

I can be reserved when I need to be but generally I’m more vocal, flashy, competitive, and direct. I find most people to be very very boring. Tan people, with tan personalities, driving tan cars, living in tan houses, living tan lives…… For transparencies sake, I’m living some of this right now too and aching for change, but alas….. Anyway, in the conservative region I live in, I tend to be a love me or hate me kind of guy. How about you???

Dry, cutting humor, but respectful.

People always form their own opinions of other people so trying to please them isn't a concern for me.

Basically I like people and receive incredible energy from them.

Conservative with a little bit of a temper at times. I can’t sit still much…Mostly keep to myself. I’d rather lay low than be out in a crowd. Definitely an A type personality. I push myself to improve myself and go at things I’m committed to 110%.

I'm very quiet and reserved until I know people well, then I'm sarcastic, sometimes bordering on obnoxious.

Definitely understated, not a flashy dresser, wear a boring Sub-C or Exp II Polar, drive pretty conservative cars (GS-350 & Grand Cherokee) both in boring colors (champagne & grey).

What kind of person are you?

Out of the night that covers me
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance,
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

- William Earnest Henley

This poem helped mold me in my formative years. I am incredibly hard nosed when I need to be but I try every day to be the best person for those around me. I’ve got a lot to make up for to even hope for a pleasant afterlife.

I am eccentric, brain has a million things going through it a minute, I dress how I want, I do what I want, I speak my mind and stand up for my opinion to anyone, my decisions are made with my family and friends best interest first, I always have to be doing something and I don’t feel any need to “keep up with Jones’”

I'm good humored but also firm on a day to day, but always polite and respectful with everyone especially the underprivileged. I'm honest and dependable as well but that's an obligation IMO not a predicate.

I’ve definitely been working on my tan this summer.

I prefer to not announce my presence as I tend to think actions speak louder than words.

Just my observations, but with some people, not asking the correct question could be true. Hell, I could live in a neighborhood full of swingers for all I know!

You have some of the best dry humor I’ve ever seen. Lots of your posts make me laugh and the funny part is sometimes it’s 10 minutes after I read it.

That’s part of my personality too. My wife has a hard time with sarcasm…… Me- chew chew chew….. Her- “Like I don’t understand? Do you really like the pork or are you trying to say it’s over cooked by chewing on the same piece for 5min?”

Being on the ground when jets went supersonic over my head, I still can't hear properly.

I think that Jeese is under the assumption that if it doesn't hover and spin, it sucks and blows. (JK Jesse, you know I love and envy you)

But we know better, don't we Paul

And I am the sarcastic type, if you have yet to notice......

Not wanting to speak out of turn here (ha ha) but what did you do to celebrate the first time you landed without a runway.

I'll be here all week....don't forget to tip your waitress and bartenders...
