Interests and Hobbies


Steelhead Trout I am an avid fisher and go mostly for the many western trout varieties. The Uinta mountain range in Utah is a personal favorite of mine where I can cast a fly line without bumping shoulders as well as hook into a brook trout or two. I also enjoy constructing balsa wood model airplanes. An unusual form of stress relief, I admit.

I also enjoy reading quite a bit. I always have to have some book or magazine nearby. My favorite magazine is National Geographic. Surf on over and check out the very best in photography and learning.

I enjoy German and Portuguese Literature. I'm currently tackling a variety of books by Nietzsche as well as several books written during the Baroque era, all for classes that I am currently taking. I also do some translating on the side. Check out my translation of Lpage's Homepage in German.

Over time I've gathered a few links to some useful Web sites. Most are for entertainment only, though a few do provide useful material. If you have any suggestions or know of better sites, feel free to let me know.
