Music, Movies, and Books
I have read a lot of books lately. I have collected books all my life, meaning to read or study them. Then about 3 years ago I realized I better start reading them, or give them away.
I gave away quite a few. (I had a few thousand books).
Then I started keeping track of the books I have read. After reading them (books I have told myself for decades that I want to read - like the Great Gatsby), I pass most of them on.
I also view a lot of Russian movies online so as to practice my Russian language, as no one else in my family speaks the language.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I sat on stage during a Pink Floyd performance in Sydney, Australia as their guest in 1971. Saw Gerry Garcia (of Grateful Dead) play in Oakland in 1973.
Played on a soccer team that toured England. Played on a softball team in a tournament in Phoenix, Arizona.
Translated for the Russian Air Force at air shows. Translated for some of the most famous Russian hockey players like Tretyak, and fellow KLM line mates Larionov and Krutov.
I worked as secretary to Bure and Mogilny as well.
