I'm a wee bit of a Renaissance man, the way I see it.
I like a lot of music from Celtic to metal to '50s rock to Celtic rock. I can play the Irish Pennywhistle and Uilleann Pipes. I can draw and paint fairly well if I put my mind to it. I've studied the philosophy of Plato and Aristotle, the geometry of Euclid, Ptolemy, and Apollonius, the Epics of Homer and Dante. I have attempted to write novels and poetry; I find linguistics, languages, words, and their development fascinating.
