Music, Movies, and Books

I really enjoyed the book and the HBO miniseries Band of Brothers.It really seemed familiar to me because I met George Luz in 1981.He told me of his wartime experiences many of which were dramatised in the show
I like the music of Bruce Springsteen and Big Bad Voodoo Daddy.I enjoy Science Fiction but my favorite author is Ernest Hemingway.My favorite work of his is The Sun Also Rises and I did not like or get The Old Man and the Sea.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I joined the army when I was 17 and had peacetime service as a Pathfinder in the 82nd Airborne and Light Weapons Leader in the 7th Special Forces.The summer after my freshman year at U/Mass I sailed across the Atlantic on the squarerigger Sorlandet.We were hit by a hurricane and I helped furl the sails.
I met my good friends Kurt and Neil on that trip.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am fairly knowledgeable in the of the use of diet, nutritional supplements, and exercise to optimize health.
