Model railroading, backyard astronomy, space exploration, music (composition, play the French Horn, Oboe, Alto Recorder, and Cornet), learning to play the ukulele (seriously, I am :D), kit-bashing, camping, and hiking, reading great science fiction, and escaping the university campus any chance I get!
I teach World Civilization, U.S. History, and U.S. Foreign Policy at the college/university level. So, with that said, I love history, love to do research, and enjoy good conversation.
Is that a bug on the screen? Get the Deodorant Flamethrower!
I got attacked by a few mosquitos yesterday, its one of my reasons summer is one of my least favourite season. But considering i live in a pretty mundane part of the world when it comes to climate, im not going to brag too much about it .
