Hobbies:
Classical Piano:
I had an
extensive past life doing this (and some jazz) for 10 years. Financial
stability, however soon became more important. Afterwards, the guitar was
fairly easy to pickup, so I dabble there occasionally.
I'm a huge advocate of musical diversity with a pretty big collection.
Contact me if you'd like to share.

Billiards:
...fairly active at this since 2001.
I helped run two Billiards Clubs at Florida State and Johns
Hopkins University for a few years. I've been an APA member
for a long time playing team city-level tournaments, and I try to get into local games when
I can. I don't gamble - gambling's for suckers.
Equipment: a retail $370 Viking F60, 12.5mm taper,
19oz, stainless steel quick-release joint#1, with white and green
pearl inlays, a wood-stain, and a le-pro tip. My jump/break cue is
retail $200 Cuetec Jump/Break, with a stainless steel ferrule, 21oz. I keep them
stored both of them in a 2B/3S brown Action case.

Yo-Yo's:
Yes, you read that correctly =). My most favorite trick is an 18-step trick called "split the atom".
|
Skateboarding:
Picked this up a few years ago. Not so much
now because of school. Tricks I can do: Backside pop-shoveits, nollies/nollie-pop-shove-its,
Kickflips (I can finally do them moving), 50-50's, 180 ollies, and I
skate parks a lot now. I just started skating parks a few months ago.
Tricks I can almost do: manuals, boardslides, tailslides.
My knees are starting to do me wrong, these days however.
