Tim's Interests
|
| General | Mathematics, Science, Music, International affairs,---- My educational background is in Mathematics, but in many ways I'm "Post-Geek". There will be some fairly dense science in my blogs - Just ignore it if it doesn't make sense. On religious faith - I don't proseletize, and can't abide people who do, but am a monotheist. Granted, I don't really practice any organized religious faith simply because it is difficult to accept the bigotries we have imposed on things we don't understand. | | Music | Brahms Chamber Music, The Sibelius Violin Concerto, Brahms Piano Sonatas, Schubert Impromptus, etc., etc., Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray, Little Feat, R.E.M, Pre Stevie Nicks Fleetwood Mac, Santana, Bueno Vista Social Club (Oh did Ry Cooder do a great job on this), and yes, Kelly Clarkson because she really isn't just lucky - She is a first-tier talent. Blue Rodeo, Toad the Wet Sprocket, Vintage Clapton, Tom Petty, B.B. King, and on and on, depending on the mood. | | Movies | Awakenings, Event Horizon, Eating Raoul, The Ring, Repo Man, The Nicol Williamson Hamlet with Anthony Hopkins and Marianne Fathfull, Shakespeare in it's period setting - The Producers, The Matrix (Yes it is that good), Old Sherlock Holmes shorts with Basil Rathbone,--- | | Television | Mostly information and travel stuff - "Good Eats", Travel Channel, etc.
I'm probably better characterised by what I don't watch - I don't watch programs built around social experiments, or weak, imitation trials and tribulations substituted for the real challenges of daily life. | | Heroes | St. Stephen, Saladin of Cairo, George Washington, Moses Maimonides - Sacrifice, Mercy, Courage, and Wisdom | | | |
