HOBBIES AND THINGS OF INTEREST TO ME

• I like to play games on my Xbox. Mostly first shooter games such as Brotherhood of Arms and the Medal of Honor series
  

• I also like to read Sci-Fi, political books , and current and world war II history books.

• I also play golf. Hence the golf course grass background. So, after a few seasons of practice and playing I have switched to a different swing style. This swing style is based on what is called a single plane swing . The technique is easier to learn and easier on the body than the conventional golf swing. I also have a set of custom fitted Cobra golf clubs That Tim Graves from Graves Golf Academy set up for me and the folks at Cobra golf made. So go to their web site and check out their clubs.   If you go to Graves Golf Academy, you can lean more about this easy swing and how it can improve your game. 

 

• I also have a 55 gallon fresh water aquarium which I keep various fresh water fish including a collection of kissing, gold, blue, and pearl gouramies.

• I use a different browser and e-mail program than Microsoft programs. Mozilla products are my choice. If you click on the word Mozilla or on the buttons below you can go to their web site and learn more about their excellent programs which includes junk mail and pop ad blocking features all of which are built into their programs and are easy to use.

• I am also a collector of DVD movies that I have grown to love over the years.  Some are B/W while others are newer and in color. Many of these movies are considered classics in their genre. Click on this link to view the list and let me know how many of them you have watched.
