Junovia, 71

Love humor, intelligence, and animals Hi. I live in the country with a bunch of dogs, cats and horses. I work part-time in several counties from Napa up to Humboldt. Twice divorced, no kids, I'm looking for the last and best love of my life. I'm wondering if you're here on this site?

I love long drives, good movies (extra points for you if you loved Fargo and The Usual Suspects and some of those great shows on USA network), good wine (OK, maybe not so good; I've been known to knock back a few glasses of Two Buck Chuck), reading, good friends, and, of course, all those animals.

I value courage, intelligence, loyalty, integrity, and you have to have a great sense of humor. I walk badly because of terrible knees, but hey, at least I get to park in those cool blue spots without getting a $300 ticket. I'm also quite fat. Lotsa guys don't like that, so I thought I'd warn you.

I'm not sure how this will go over, but I kinda wonder about folks our age who have no life and are willing to give up everything for someone new. I'm not like that. I have commitments, friends, activities-- all kinds of stuff that gives me a pretty full life. It's quite possible that the ideal man lives a couple of hours away, can't wait to get together for a day or two here and there for some fun and romance, and then goes away (extra points if you help with chores before you take off!) Of course we'd be monogamous, but maybe absence really does make the heart grow fonder. No, wait, I think that was absinthe.
