After a long days work basically fall asleep or lounge in front of the television where Karma the cat tries to keep me on my toes! For the last year, however, I have been lucky enough to have min-plan season tickets to the Florida Panthers. They are a decent hockey club here in South Florida, who may even have a chance to get to the playoffs and beyond.
I am also a big race fan, and try to attend at least 2 or 3 major events during the season. Racing is much different in person than on television, however. Whenever I watch them on television, I have a tendency to watch the inside of my eyelids more than what's going on on the track.
I've been surfing around looking for additonal Danica Patrick information, espeically since she is having a halfway decent season this year (a win at Motegi, top ten in Homestead.) I found two articles that might interest the average Danica Patrick fan. This one concerns how she and Ashley Force are the darlings of the media, while Sarah Fisher is left in the shadows. This story is the best one I've seen about Danica, and what her future may hold in terms of increased exposure!
I also love politics and the way that the political
process works. It is an amazing thing to watch, and even more amazing to participate in. I have been involved in the College Democrats, and have had the opportunity to attend various campaign functions for Hugh Rodham and the late Governor Lawton Chiles, as well as the chance to attend a campaign rally for President Clinton.
Say what you will about good ol' Bill, but once you've actually seen him speak, your opinion of him will change.
I am unsure about his wife, though. In the upcoming general election, the Clintons' will have to decide how much support to give the Democratic nominee, and how much is too much. If you take a look at the other side of my page, and take a close look at my friends list, you will see where my hope lies.

My music interests are basically pretty simple, although I do try to listen to everything at least once before I form an opinion on it.. To give you an idea of what I like to listen to, my radio is almost always set on 103.1 The Buzz. When the BUZZ started playing Howard Stern in the morning, though, I found another good alternative station at 93 Rock.
I am also an occasional listener of National Public Radio, which is a good way to hear the news and other daily information in an informative, and generally non-biased manner.
My favorite movies are almost anything political (Dave, Primary Colors, the American President). I am also partial to SCI-FI (Star Wars, Star Trek, Galaxy Quest, Men in Black) There are lots of others I could mention, but those are the big ones..

Overall, you're a pretty well balanced person. But maybe you focus a little too much on the here and now. Think about the future before its too late.
I'm sure you can tell that I am a big Star Wars fan, but did you know that President Bush was as well? He is so much of a fan, that he intends to add one of the most well-known characters from the saga to his cabinet. Don't believe me? Then check this link to one of the most reliable papers in the world, and read for yourself!

Books
The last series of books I started to read is Harry Potter. I read the entire first book, and started on the second one. I'd have to say my favorite books are probably 1984, Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone, and, of course, my copy of the Jedi Master's Guidebook. I've also finished about half of "I am America (and so can you!)" by Dr. Stephen Colbert, DFA.
You Should Rule Saturn
Saturn is a mysterious planet that can rarely be seen with the naked eye.
You are perfect to rule Saturn because like its rings, you don't always follow the rules of nature.
And like Saturn, to really be able to understand you, someone delve beyond your appearance.
You are not an easy person to befriend. However, once you enter a friendship, you'll be a friend for life.
You think slowly but deeply. You only gain great understanding after a situation has past.

Hello, and welcome to my personal web page. I have spent the past twelve years trying to unlock the mysteries of the
world wide web, and this is my place to reveal a few of the mysteries about myself. I hope that you enjoy this voyage into the mind of A.J. Sinclair,
and that you come back to experience the mystery in the future!
ALIEN 2008!
Don't you think that the alien would be a better
choice for president than most of the people being discussed? If you do,
e-mail me and tell me why. The best answer will be published here!
Here is one of the best answers I've found thus far.
I think several of the presidents (no caps on this one
for me!) of the United States were aliens! I am convinced that there is a
small octopus like creature in a compartment in Reagan's back operating
the entire mechanism. Unfortunately, the curious alien ingested several
tabs of bad acid in the early 60's and has since been functioning
erratically...any day I expect Reagan's head to start sparking and
smoking, and a door to open in his back...as the little alien scrambles
for cover, a jerky Reagan will be proclaiming "Ignore the little octopus
behind the curtain...I am the Wizard of Oz!"...This theory of mine is
over a decade old, and predated any knowledge I had of MIB!....
PS. Clinton is DEFINITELY an alien...fortunately, having seen
what happend to his collegue (Reagan)..he played it safe and did not inhale!
You may be surprised, but the Alien actually endorsed President Bush, and was more than likely instrumental in his election in 2000..You don't honestly believe that normal people would vote for him without some sort of alien mind control, do you? Even though he did assist him in winning, he isn't very happy with the administration so far. Click here to read the full story!
DON'T PANIC!
Did you know that there is actually a team of researchers trying to find out the answer to life, the universe, and everything? According to the Colbert Report, there is a small group of theoretical physicists who actually believe that the entire universe can be explained in one single equation..Maybe the answer really is 42?
Hey Adam, Thanx for the add.......
Just wanted to stop by and say hi and to let you know we just finished
building a brand new website for racers, families, friends, sponsors of
racers and promoters.. www.WTFRACE.com
We built this new website so that you can post pics, videos, polls,
blogs, forums and meet other people from around the world that race.
This site is for everyone from 4 year old's racing bmx to 94 year old's
racing Bonneville. Doesn't matter if you have an engine, pedals, sails,
wings, a radio control in your hand or the gravity taking you to the
finish line. You could race professionally or at local tracks it
doesn't matter. We hope to build this site so that all of you can have
a place to showcase your rides in every way. You can even use our site
to promote your own web pages. Once you log in, there is a lot more to
see and do also. Think of this as a Myspace/facebook for racers.......
www.WTFRACE.com Hope to see you there.........Mike
I am sending this to you to see how many actually read their comments.Your response will be interesting. Pay attention to what you read. After you have finished reading it, you will know the reason it was sent to you. Here goes: People come into your life for a REASON, a SEASON or a LIFETIME. When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that person. When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend and they are. They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on. Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has come to share, grow or learn. They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it, it is real. But only for a season . LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons, things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant. Thank you for being a part of my life, whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime. Send this to every friend that you have on-line, including the person who sent it to you.
How is everything going havn't talked with you guys in a while.
I dropped college. I just found out I have MS on top of having MD (Muscular Dystrophy). I guess if your going to be sick get it all at once...LOL! Thought I'd drop in and say Hi!! How warm is it down there? Hope you guys had a great Holiday. Take care. From the Star wars geek.
