| Interests | I appease the gods of age and gravity every morning with a Nordic Track, a Precor or weights. As long as I don't think about it, it doesn't bother me. I am lucky to water ski in the summer and snow ski in the winter with my family. I prefer non-fiction while actually reading and fiction while driving or listening to an ipod. I enjoy all types of travelling when my wife can drag me out to do it. |
