Fire investigation/fighting, EMS, Reading, Audio books, Boating, Jet skiing (stand-up skis ONLY!!) Hunting (Bow & Rifle), Target shooting.... Okay -any type of firearm! Edged weapons. HMMM.. I think I'm scaring myself!
People who can laugh harder at themselves than at anyone else.
How does one answer this? Classic Rock, Classical, Country, Jazz, Blues, New Age, Old Age, Any Age...
I have an extensive DVD collection... I will watch just about anything as long as it does not suck. Well, even some of those, but only once. Heh!My all-time, will watch over & over favorite: The Alien movies. Ripley Rules.
Mmm, tough call. I refuse to watch anything with the word "Reality" in it as it usually isn't and you can feel your IQ dropping exponentially in direct relationship to the amount of time spent watching it. I like programs like CSI (the original). How It's Made. Good Eats. Star Trek & its offshoots (except Voyager & Deep Space 9 ), Numb3rs, and most things on the History Channel. Remember though, the TV has an off button. USE IT.
My all time favorite.. reread it every year. The Dune Series by Frank Herbert. I truly believe that he is spinning in his grave over what his son Brian has done in the "Prequels" he wrote. Not the same caliber as his father. Poor thing. Pretty much anything Sci-Fi / Fantasy. Ben Bova, Piers Anthony, Douglas Adams... Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy and the follow-ups... Hysterical! Turned my son on to them when he was just a tiddler. Wow... my Father and Sister are bibliophiles also so they can relate my inability to narrow the list down. So why bother? Nothing is quite so great as a comfy spot, a glass of iced tea, and a book that pulls you in so deeply that the world around you disappears.
People who do what is needed, even when it hurts. I truly believe that a hero is just a coward who held on for five minutes more. We all can be heroes. Hold on.
