About me

Gender Male
Location United States
Introduction I prefer to intentionally stay out of the way of other people, and without exception I make a point of it. In return I expect the same. I'm a solitary person, and I deeply respect the people and the (world that I live in,) and the people and the world that I am surrounded by. When people make an uninvited decision to push themselves into or onto my path (my world), I find it unpleasant. I enjoy politics, the arts, videography, learning to write and gold. I served in Vietnam with the 9th infantry division, which in turn became the catalyst that stoked my interest in politics. I enjoy music from almost every genre. I find it not only enchanting but also very intriguing to be in the company of a woman that has been endowed with a bold attitude, that which is stronger than her looks alone, and that possesses no room in her mind or in her heart for neediness. That is what I like. And I am Joseph.
Interests politics, gold coins, space time continuum, poker, guitar, arts, videography, music, sports, new tech toys, thoroughbred horse racing

Why does the taste of pennies remind you of losing a tooth?

When I was a kid I got caught by my parents one night sneaking outside in the back yard of our house to eat a penny, so to teach me a lesson they sat me down and made me eat 4 rolls of pennies until I got sick and turned green, and threw-up. Needless to say that was it for me I quit eating pennies for good.
