I love to build model aircraft and spacecraft, and am working on a Space Shuttle kit and an F-14 Tomcat. I got started when I was a kid, fell away in college (I was too busy studying and working) and got back into it a few years ago. I also enjoy bowling. Last week I got a 201 but yesterday I got a 96 (then followed that with a 162 - my average this year is around 140 and I'm joining a league in a couple of weeks). And there's working with and upgrading - occasionally building - my own computer. As for watching sports, I like college football best (Arizona Wildcats), followed by pro, and then basketball (in mourning over losing to Illinois) and baseball, and I find I enjoy events better when I'm there in person. Maybe in the future, we'll be able to enjoy lunar baseball and zero-g football, soccer, basketball.....Or lunar hockey on an ice rink at the north pole, by then the NHL will have a labor agreement -------------------- - My signature idea machine is busted right now.

I've got a Celestron NexStar8 gathering dust, a meteorite collection, and a whole bunch of great SF books from the 50s & 60s just sitting there, asking me to use them. Unfortunately, work, school, the Air Force Reserve and a pending divorce consume all my time...I'll get back to you in 2008 when the latter three are all done! -------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.
