Introducing Me (Luke)

General Information

Hello my name is Luke.
I am 38 years old (as of mid 2007). People always guess my age to be late 20's or early 30's, including those that have known me a while. Never been married and have no children. I have never had the desire for kids so I went out and had myself fixed. I kind of consider my dog to be my kid. I don't smoke and don't really enjoy being around it.  So if you a a smoker, I most likely wont be spending a lot of time around you.  I drink socially and am new to liking beer (used to hate it).  If anyone needs to know I am a Sagittarius.

I live in Las Vegas and have since 1985.  I may want to leave one day but for now this is home.  I have enough going for me here, that I may be here for life. Who knows?  There is a lot of outdoor stuff very close to Las Vegas so it is easy to be entertained.  I very rarely go out on the town and do the "Vegas Thing".  About the only time I go out to do any of that, is when company comes to visit from out of town.  Then I play tourist for a while.  The funny thing is, each time I say to myself I should do it more often so I don't feel like I am missing everything that's right here in town.  People come from all over the world to check this place out.

My interests are mostly outdoor stuff. I enjoy hiking, backpacking, kayaking (tour style), climbing (just learning), Canyoneering (just learning and I am so hooked!), and have done very little mountain biking but would love to do more.  Not sure how much of it I will continue to do but  I have recently enjoyed checking out a few old mines. One of them took us 960 feet below ground. That's about as tall as the Stratosphere here in town! I also used to snowboard for a few years but seem to have lost the love of that.  I enjoy a little bit of 4 wheeling, not the heavy duty stuff just the light stuff out exploring the desert.  I once had a 1967 International Scout.  I had a day in that truck I will never forget.  Can you say stranded?  If you would like to read a fun story about that feel free to check out the story about being stranded.

Other than the out door thing, I enjoy the standard stuff you here everyone say when asked what they like. Hanging out with friends, movies, out to eat etc. Although I like going to Movies I almost never watch TV. The movie genres I do like are sci-fi, comedy, martial art and an occasional drama. I am not into horror movies, I don't like that stuff in my head.

I enjoy a wide variety of music but mostly like the mellow stuff. Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of occasions where I get the urge to listen to something hard and thrashing. I don't care much for rap, country, disco or heavy metal. There are a few songs in each of those categories I really like, but over all they are not for me.

I used to own a Ninja ZX6R but ended up having it totaled. I got hit when some guy cut a left turn and side swiped me in the parking garage at my work.  I am not sure if I will get another motorcycle or not..  On the enjoyable side there is the fun free feeling of the raw power and easy maneuvering through traffic along with the great feeling of freedom by not being enclosed in a box.  On the fear side, there is seeing too many people I know get hurt while riding.  So maybe I will ride again, Maybe I won't, time will tell.

My Life Path Number is 3

Life Path Picture

The following was something generated from What Is Your Life Path Number?. I thought it was interesting so it is included here. Click on the link to see what your life path number is.

This is what it had to say about me.
Your purpose in life is to express your unique self. You are a creative and artistic person with an interesting view on life. Witty and outgoing, you enjoy sharing your crazy ideas with anyone who will listen. A total social butterfly, you're the life of any party.

In love, you inspire and enchant your partner. You are often an object of fantasy and desire.

While you are very talented, you sometimes lack the ambition to put your talents in play. And while your wit carries you a long way, you occasionally use it to mask your true feelings.

Your natural abilities can bring you all the success in the world ... if you let them
