Lets see . . . I like going to the movies, dogs (RIP Mr. C), military toys, cheeseburgers, beer (Sam Adams), cheeseburgers and beer, museums (sometimes), hardcore shows, amphibians, walking, walking in the woods, running (don't do enough), canoing, NOT dancing at weddings, and MYSPACE!!! I hate the beach - way too much sun for a pale irish guy, and there is nothing redeeming about all that sand (although the swimming is fun).I often find myself doing syncronized swimming, playing bachee ball, tight rope walking, trapeze acts, dabbling in holistic medicine and archiology.
My idol, David Lee Roth!!

I'm a channel guy as opposed to particular shows. History Channel, PBS, Spike. I like nature shows. Most extreme elimination is a good show.
I go through phases with reading. Military History (WWII primarily). Favorite History author is Stephen Ambrose (RIP). I read the LOTR Trilogy and the Hobbit (one day I'll finish the other 6 Tolkien Books I have laying around . . . I previously found them a bit long winded and slow moving . . . but I am a completest and like the feeling of knowing more about something than anyone else! And overall, Tolkiens stuff is great when you get through it). I've read a good deal of political stuff, including a lot of Michael Moore books (I like that fat bastid). I try to read a lot of classics, because they are usually good books. I keep thinking that it'll give me something to talk about . . . but a lot of people don't seem to read much other than crappy newspapers. One of my favorite books is A Confederacy of Dunces. I also like to read nature and social articles . . the kind of stuff you find in National Geographic.
