About Me

Hi. Yes, I am male and yes I am mature (over 50). Please do not hold these two attributes against me. That said, more about me:

I am married to a beautiful lady. We have four children, three daughters and a son. We were recently blessed with our second Grandchild.

I am retired and my wife works in logistics. We live in a small town in South Central Texas.

I did take a sabbatical from my two online ventures, Swap-Bot and Postcrossing but with my retirement I am looking forward to once again actively participating.

Please do not allow the fact that I am male discourage you. I promise to do my best to fulfill all swaps in a manner that will more than just satisfy participants. If I get stuck, I always have my wife to fall back on. She is into scrap booking and the arts and crafts areas that I may lack some knowledge.

Favorite Music

I am very open minded when it comes to music. I like some of just about any genre that you can think of, it just depends on my mood.

My favorite would be old Country & Western. By old, I am referring to the 40's and 50's.

But I enjoy classic, blues, jazz, hard rock (70's and 80's) and big band. Told you my interests are varied.

Favorite Books

I read quite a bit. Mostly I enjoy fiction (horror) with Stephen King being my favorite author. I also read true crime and enjoy biographies of prominent figures, especially politicians.

Favorite Movies

This may come as a surprise, but I enjoy horror movies. Not the modern slash type movies but real scary movies, Like The Birds or Rear Window. Another favorite is the original Psycho. Notice a theme? Alfred Hitchcock.

More recent movies that I have enjoyed including Titanic and Fifth Element.

Favorite actors and actress include Demi Moore, Goldie Hawn, Bruce Willis, Jack Nicholson, Jerry Lewis, Don Knotts and Kate Hudson.

Favorite Television

Current television likes are slim. I do enjoy NCIS, Reba and Big Bang Theory.

Favorite Crafts

Ok, this is sort of a weak point depending on your perception. I enjoy small woodwork projects (for example bird houses and feeders). I am also a big photography enthusiast and enjoy just about any project that involves photography.

Is cooking a craft? It should be. I sure do enjoy it.

Likes

Please do not allow my list of Likes to limit you. I am open to most anything for swaps. You will be rated on the thought and intent, not necessarily the content. (Remember, I have a wife who I can pass items to)

Likes:

Cooking and trying new foods, Images of wildlife, Images of historical significance, Images of cultural significance, Woodworking projects, Cultural items, Puzzles, Movie and TV memorabilia, old publications and Anything of historical significance

Dislikes

Dislikes:

Please do not send anything of a discriminatory nature, any type. The only exception would be if it was of historical significance.

Comment: Thank you so much for the swap, Jim! I loved the envelope and the card, it is super fun! I am a digital artist and I also love to transform my art into postcards to send to people! Hope you get the opportunity to come to Finland someday, it's an incredible country for photography, you'd be amazed what mother nature made here! Much love to you and, again, thanks for the tea! <3

Just happened upon your profile and looked at your FB page since I'm in TX, too. Believe it or not, I know a family in Kingsbury, who go to church in Seguin. What are the odds. LOL.
