Keep Calvin, he rocs, I remember it took me a long time to figure out what that comic strip was all about, once I figured out Hobbs and everything else was all in Calvins head, it became one of my favorites. Basically those pictures help define you, you found them and chose to put them there.
We need the big smile, so get your camera fixed or borrow one, or you can scan one too.
I think your interests section is too long, people might give up and never get to the about me part. About half that would still be long, a third might be good so eliminate 2 out of three there. Think about each one of them and if they don't tell something that one of the others that will stay does, loose it.
On the contact me restrictions, what if a woman was 30 that knew a fantastic gal for you, or just wanted to say Hi. Or maybe a guy wanted to say "Hey I know something you would probably like to do," those people can't tell you. Put that stuff in the text where they can read it, but let those people contact you.
In my oppinion contact restrictions are the biggest mistakes people make on this site. | |

Your pictures are OK, I would try to have a few where you are doing things (active) but not bad. You aren't going to scare anybody off with those, that's what is most important.
You might add a few more interests and talk about them in the "about me" section, that part seems to be a little in the lacking content in my oppinion. Surely you can explain the type of boating you like, some trips you've taken, or the ways that you work out. There has to be stuff there that people can say "I do that, we could do that together." I think you need to have at least three or four things connect before you push somebody enough to have then send an email.
I would have less stipulations in your contact restrictions, I would put that in the "about me" section but let others talk to you that might not be who you think you want, but they might be able to convince you otherwise. Don't limit yourself, be open to the possibilities. Your perfect match might be in California, maybe he's thinking about moving to Toronto but he can't contact you. Make your stipulations into suggestions, if they don't meet them and you don't want to talk to them say so, but at least you had the opportunity of refusal.
You have a couple I's that need to be capitalized and some missing appostrophes. Those kinds of little things can hurt you, anything that can be considered negative can wipe out a positive. It's hard enough to find one's to connect with, don't leave anything that might hurt your chances, no matter how trivial they seem. | |

If the bike picture is you which I assume you might need to explain that, looks dangerous. No big waves in sight but big hurt is possibly pending. More pictures are always good.
Your interests should be a little more specific, list the extreme sports you like best. I'm sure you've got a lot more words you could put in that area to help define what you enjoy doing.
Did somebody change the English language, seems like every profile I read has mistakes with capitalizing I and using apostrophes. Again the about me portion could be a lot longer. The more you tell the more people feel like the know you and the better people know if they should send you an email or respond to a letter you sent them. | |

Not bad, I'm wondering if in your first sentence who should be whom. I would put a few more specifics in the interests section, and add a few more pictures, a longer writeup is always better, the more you tell in my book the better, I'm not one for intrique in profiles, I personally think you should inform, I don't think people respond well to things left to the imagination on the internet. I think people get so tired of computer advertising not telling the whole story that if it doesn't say it specifically it's probably not good news. In the first date area you should show how creative you can be. Every area of the profile should say something good about you, or at least try to separate you from the masses. Give them something to connect with. | |

"Looking for" Good headline, even thought it doesn't say anything but looking, it makes you want to find out what for....
You need to get a picture with a smile, the last one sort of has one but it's too far away to really tell. Get rid of the "don't bother me I'm working look", if you have too, think of your favorite joke when they take the picture, or better yet tell the joke to somebody that hasn't heard it yet. Get some pictures of you doing the other things you like outside. On the beach, playing football, etc.
Interests, I'm sure you have more than that, be specific, give the women something to really connect with there, they have to connect with something in that list or they aren't going to spend the time reading the about me text.
I'm really starting to wonder, did somebody outlaw the apostrophe and forget to tell me???? Do they not teach that anymore???
About me could be longer, this is where you have to convince them to risk everything and contact you.
Ok that's what I think. | |

First your headline got cut off, I assume it should be with, so you need some editing there.
Is your age really 66, you don't look it....That's a good thing
It's always good to have more pictures and more words in the interest area, people will make the decision, do they want to spent the time to read about you by what they see there. So spell out the lots of whatever.
I personally don't like words like coupla for couple of, I'm sure it doesn't bother some others but it might just bother the person you would like to connect with.
For not much written in your about me, you've said a mouthfull. You can always add more there, the more they know the more chance the right one will connect and you have a better chance of getting them to respond.
An up to date picture is almost manditory, even if you explain later, that's a negative and it doesn't take many negatives to negate all the positives. That helps explain my first comment. | |

So you want to see what I got........... well that might be able to be arranged.......
Oh not quite what you meant... shucky darn
Ok first don't stop looking, people get old not looking, it takes luck or work to find that right one, since most of us can't hope on luck, we are stuck with work..
Once again I have to comment on apsotrophes and capital I's, also a couple mistypings that a spell check would find. We all can't be hurt by propper spelling and correct english usage, myself included.
You've got a lot about not very much in your abut me section, you've been hurt, we all have, unfortunately most relationships end with somebody getting hurt, that's the price we pay trying to find the right person. There is some stuff about you in your write up but I think you should dwell more on that and less on the hurt. You might loose the right one along the way. You've got to keep there attention all the way to the end to get them to the respond button at the bottom of the page.
I would keep a couple of the pics you've got ( the first two are good) and get a full body shot in there someplace and some of you doing things you like.
first date is good, IM TRY at the end doesn't make sence to me??? | |

I would change the few extra lbs to average, most people abuse that few extra to mean about 40 or more extra. It's ok to talk about it in the write up but I'd let the picture speak for itself, in my oppinion your just fine in that department.
I wold add a few more words in the interests and loose the 75 mile restriction in the email preferences, those are hard and fast rules, I expect if you met the right one 100 miles away you would be perfectly happy with that. I also would get rid of male, maybe a female would make a great friend or knows somebody perfect for you. We all can use all the friends we can get.
Overall it's very good, best we've had in a few days. | |
