He was a good friend of mine. Sure, he was a little off kilter, but then again he does have an amazing story behind it all. I haven't seen him since maybe 2002, but he went on to become the head of a psychiatric dept. for a children's hospital. The really 'weird' one's (as you say) were the temple dwellers, the one's that lived, ate, and breathed the culture. But, they were also the most serene.

I referee soccer as a hobby. :)

^ Skydiving? Cool. Always wanted to do that. How much training does it take? How many jumps have you completed?

Fishkeeping is my big one. Also historical modelling.

Fishkeeping???? You keep fish? Please explain.

Historical modeling???? Do you dress up as George Washington and then pose for college art classes?

I think that means he plays with historically accurate action figures.

I keep tropical fish. Y'know, 🐠

I build models of WW2 airplanes and the like. My grandpa passed it on to me.

You mean you have pet fish? Or does it go beyond that?

Well yeah, I have pet fish, but I consider myself an enthusiast--not just some kid with a goldfish. I have two tanks and I take it pretty seriously.
