Rumbeard, 48

Obviously I'm into redheads.
I'm basically a goofball. I have an odd sense of humor and I prefer to laugh in life, so I'm more likely to watch comedy entertainment than anything else. I have a sarcastic and occasionally ribald sense of humor. I can laugh at almost anything in the right context. I am very much the activist liberal in my own mind, but I'm not hugely PC. I have a romantic side but I'm not too keen on being overly sappy. I pride myself on being very good at my profession (System Administrator) and anything I do. I like to cook and learn about cuisines of the world. Currently I cook Indian, Southern Mexican, and Cajun the most. I don't care for sports all that much except maybe sailing and snow skiing. I smoke a pipe maybe 1-4 times a month. My biggest hobby is being a motor-head for large old computer systems. Anyone I'm with can't be afraid of big iron beasts with blinky lights. In general I'm looking for someone beautiful inside and out. I'm big on facial looks. I have no problem with a match that is smarter than I am, but she should be sweet where it counts. She should have an excellent sarcastic sense of humor and the ability to make me laugh too. Ideally she should be into one or more severely geeky pursuits (IT geeks have an advantage). I am not looking for children or a desire to have them. I will consider for the right person but I pretty much don't want any within the short term. In terms of dates, looking for BBW (Big Beautiful Women) only. Taller red-headed pears a plus (5' 5"+) but height is not necessary.
