My Hobbies

Golf

I love to play a relaxing game of golf on the weekends to shed the stress of the week. Golf is definitely a sport that requires relaxation to play. I always find that my game goes down south when my temper rises. I have played some municipal courses and public courses. I have only had the opportunity to play on courses in Texas, North Carolina and Okinawa. I also love playing the computer versions like Links, Golf Pro, and Jack Nickelson. I do prefer playing Golf Pro over the other two.



Video games

I am a product of the arcade age and I spend several hours playing video games on my computer. I enjoy playing strategy games and a few first person shooters. I prefer strategy games the most. The more resources I have to gather, the more research that has to be preformed, and the more planning I have to do the better. First person shooters are more of a quick stress relief for me. I have large variety of games to choose from these days. Below is just some of the titles I own.

Unreal Tournament	Half Life	Quake II
Starcraft / Brood War	Baldur's Gate	Diablo I / II
Army Men I / II	Caesar II	Diakatana
Home World	War Craft I / II	Myth
Icewind Dale	Ground Control	Ages of Empires I / II

VW Beetles

The fourth car I owned was a VW Beetle and that was at the age of nineteen. I drove that car till I was twenty three years old. It was converted from a 73 standard full body to a 73 BAJA (above). I had pulled the engine and stripped the tins off. I installed powder coated tins over the jug covers and painted the fan shroud to match. I pulled the engine out monthly to clean it so I designed a quick release for the wiring harness that had only one plug. I also had three mufflers that I rotated monthly (quiet pack, glass pack, and a short stinger w/ a coffee can painted to match the engine). By the time I sold it I owned a 66 VW as well. I sold the 66 to my brother which he still has. In 1997 I once again ventured down the path and bought 72 full body standard VW Beetle. When it comes to my cars I have to say that I am a VW beetle enthusiast. I wreaked the front so once again my plan is to BAJA it. I will post some pics when I enter into the construction phase.
