I clean up nicely, and shower weekly whether needed or not. Have been trained well, so always put the toilet seat down after I have done my duty, pick up after myself, and do what I am told (except when feeling rebellious). Almost completely domesticated. Always squeeze the toothpaste from the bottom, unless too tired, or angry for no apparent reason. Limited temper tantrums and lots of counseling, so you get the new improved model. Bad hair days are a thing of the past. Some folks have therapy dogs but mine's a hog. See the photo section.

Can act respectable and refined, as circumstances require and with minimal coaching. Generally keep my mouth shut, only give advice when asked, keep it brief, and have no expectations that anyone will deem it useful. Not a great cook, but can barbeque, and good at cleaning, fixing things, mowing, babysitting, and most anything else that does not require considerable intelligence. A little shy at first, but agreeable and good conversationalist once I get through the introductions. Still a little old fashioned and don't believe in sex on the first date.

Now for the appropriate warnings and disclosures about vices, flaws and imperfections (if not yet apparent). The wild side still shows through. Love the feel of my hair blowin in the wind when cruzin the Harley. Never really grew up, just got older, and like hangin with the kids. An apparent misfit in the high priest group so relegated to Scoutmaster, for the 4th time. Tormented constantly by five kids who think I'm their sugar daddy. But always an embarrassment to them, or so they tell me, so they disclaim all ownership when in public.

Have had lots of challenges in my life, and if I thought I could get some mileage out of it, or even a little sympathy, would gladly provide all the details. Enjoy wrestling with my kids, hearing my boys howl when I dump cold water on them in the shower, laughing, racquetball, water sports, snow sports, hiking, soccer, and if completely bored, helping the other inmates at the local chapel.
