Did I mention I like to travel? I have this fascination with other cultures. If I wanted to get really deep I would tell you it probably stems from my own lack of cultural identity. Being a "European Mutt" doesn't exactly instill in me a great sense of pride for some reason. My specific area of concentration is Asia. I think just because the culture is so different from my own. I was first exposed to it when I was 18 and sent to live there compliments of the Army. I was intrueged and decided that Asia was what I wanted to study. More specifically China. I am big into music too. I listen to pretty much anything as long as it sounds good to me and it fits my mood. As far as TV and movies...Law and Order(any of them), Dead Like Me, CSI(all except Miami), and of course Family Guy. One of my biggest interests is obviously my wife too. I also love to argue...debate, dance in clubs, and the ever generic "hang with friends". That's about it.

To say I'm an avid reader would not only be an exaggeration, but a blasphemous lie. I read The Economist and Foreign Policy a lot since they are such intelligent magazines and I have a subscription. I'm almost finished up with a book called "Achilles in Vietnam" It's really interesting b/c it talks about the similarities of PTSD(post traumatic stress disorder) found in both Achilles in the Illiad and vets of the Vietnam War.
