Ahh, yes....the guilty pleasures of hanging out on the Web. Here are some of my favorite places to go:
I'm somewhat of a sports nut,
especially when it comes to
Tar Heel basketball.
But my real love is NASCAR, and my personal homepage is set
to my Jersey friend
Jayski's website. I
spend a lot of time online at
www.gordonline.com, which is run by some very close friends of mine
(I write a monthly column for the website).
My sister and I try to go to at least two races a year--one in the Carolinas and
one at Chicagoland--and our goal is to score tickets to the Bristol night race
in the next year or two.
Speaking of music, but not obscure music: click here to go to the webpage of the greatest band in the world, Queen; I'm a big Brian May fan. His new book Bang! is based on his Ph.D. research (and in 2007, at age 60, he finished his Ph.D. degree in Astrophysics (no, I am not making that up!)--go Brian!)
Bruce Springsteen is the poet laureate of my lifetime; I follow him at www.backstreets.com. This is a little goodie from back in the day....the national anthem of New Jersey!
My cats Neville and Max are my life. Here they are attacking the camera and dismembering their perch.
I also love the music of Bill Payne, the keyboardist for Little Feat; if you want to check out his work online, go to http://hu.mtu.edu/poemandsong.htm and check out his new album, Cielo Norte.
I love chocolate, spices (especially curries) and Thai food and am happy to share recipes for anything but the legendary Five-Chocolate Brownies. As a book junkie, I can't resist the world's largest bookstore: Amazon.com. Try them--the prices may be better than the Bookworm! I'm not much of a TV fan, other than The Sopranos, Project Runway, Top Chef, and the occasional episode of Neat. [Stop laughing. I want my house to look that way; it just doesn't, okay?] I miss La Femme Nikita and Highlander, the last two shows I watched regularly.
And of
course I love Lord of the Rings!
