I have been quite happy with the car, except I don't want to drive it in
commuting traffic so it doesn't get out much.  To the best of my knowledge
it has not been in a wreck or anything like that.  It does not have air
conditioning or right side mirror.  I have owned the car for about a year.  
Oh yeah, the car is in Seattle WA.  Thats all I can think of at the
moment.

My company has season tickets.  No pressure just fun!  Here's a little about me:

SWM, 23 years old, 5'11", 155lbs, prof.

I'm intelligent, athletic, honest, easygoing, with a good sense of humor.  I'm
new to this area.  I enjoy playing many sports, such as tennis, volleyball,
softball, basketball, etc.  I also enjoy skiing, games, and music (most kinds

Write to me, I'll tell you more.

No smoking or drugs, please.

Hope to hear from you soon.

If you are not looking for a romp in the hay, then read on, otherwise
read it anyway if you must.
I'm a voyeur at heart and do have dirty lustful thoughts, I am
also happily married.
The reason that I am sending mail  is because I miss
flirting with women. I find that in my idle moments I have fantasies
of being with other women. Fantasies mind you, I am not out after sex.
I do miss the companionship of different women.
If you find yourself in a similar situation, please send some mail.
Perhaps we can blow off some steam together and not have to worry
about each other's sexual advances.

Me, I'm 39, I've been married for 14 years and do  have great children.
I love the outdoors, sailing, snow skiing, hiking, backpacking..

     So where is Mountain Cliffe?  This is a new one this year.
Is it a renamed Ski Broadmoor or Conquistador? 
Could someone who has skiied there enlighten us?  Thanks.
