History and Current Events are one-in-the-same right now...
I'm into current world events and their historical origins. I really like all kinds of history because I think it gives us a perspective for living today.
Speaking of living...well...art is a great way to enrich your life, either by purchasing or viewing for free. If you can make the trip, I recommend The 2nd Floor Gallery . It's located in the growing art mecca of Mechanicsburg, near Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
