I'll casually listen to just about anything. Some of my favorites are Pink Floyd, Eric Clapton, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Jack Jonhson, Dave Mathews, Jewel, Radiohead, and tons more
MOVIES
I'll watch most anything(Anything with a C+ or above according to Yahoo users) I save a lot of movies for the dollar theatre. I think some of my favorites are Braveheart, Lord of the Rings, Most of the Starwars', Hotel Rwanda, What the Bleep, tons more. Comic book movies are usually okay, most comedies, and I even like romantic comedies.
HOBBIES
I enjoy hiking, swimming, weight lifting, skiing, camping, and many other physical activities. I also enjoy movies (I go to about every new release no matter how terrible....although some are saved for the dollar theatre) I lived in England for 12 years and have traveled extensively. I have visiting most of Europe, Greece, India, Africa, King Arthur's old stomping grounds, etc, etc. I still have not been to any Asian countries, but would love to go!!!
I am pretty easy going, caring, funny/goofy, I enjoy staying active.
I am a student of Falun Dafa. Falun Dafa is a practice that has brought better health and inner peace to millions around the world. It can be explained as cultivation practice: "cultivation" refers to the improvement of one's heart and mind through the careful study of universal principles based on truthfulness, benevolence, and forbearance; "practice" means doing exercises and meditation to energize the body. (Falun Dafa is non-religious, there is no worship, no organization, and all activities are free of charge. There is a free practice every Sat and Sun in Tempe and Scottsdale.
I now deal with stress much better, am more centered, haven't been sick since beginning over 5 years ago, and am generally happier since practicing. On several occasions I have been fortunate enough to experience what I describe as a tranquil state during meditation. I no longer perceive my body, but instead feel as though I am a thousand miles above my body and am only aware of my consciousness. As you can imagine the day becomes easier to deal with after such an experience.
I have to share that the practice was banned in China in 1999. To date, there are more than 2,900 documented cases of otherwise healthy practitioners being beaten and tortured to death while in detention.
Hi Nick,
I'm not sure I understand why the wood chuck question is 4. The saying goes, "How much wood would a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood? Why, a wood chuck would chuck as much wood as a wood chuck could chuck, if a wood chuck could chuck wood."
