I absolutley LOVE working on my Macintosh! Nothing compares to the Mac operating system! I really love producing videos with Final Cut Pro and creating Quicktime movies. Especially movies that showcase the German Shepherds we rescue. Showcasing the dogs on video really makes it easy for potential adopters to get to know a dog a little better before meeting the GSD for the first time.

I also spend a lot of time on the internet. Usually, when I'm not surfing the net, I can be found designing web pages, graphics, and occasionally FileMaker databases.

I love going to the theater to take in a movie and also enjoy watching videos at home, especially in the home theater we built. Terri came up with the idea to build it because she signed us up for NetFlix and we didn't own a DVD player. So, the purchase of a DVD player along with installing a new floor in the basement led to a really cool home theater. Here is a QuickTime Panorama of the room.

Speaking of movies. We've seen a lot of them. As a matter of fact back in 1998 my wife and I viewed the top 100 films of all time as picked by the American Film Institute. This took us about a year to accomplish. After viewing them, we came up with our own top 100. Of course this would change over time, but here is what we came up with back in 1998.

Everything else considered one might think that I could never create the time to enjoy some entertainment. I do, however, enjoy participating, seeing and attending several festivals and events. Some of the events listed below may even give somebody an idea for those times when you want to do something, but can't think of anything to do!

My recreation and leisure time, when not spent on the computer, is spent going to the dog park, watching TV, reading a book (not too often), working in the yard and listening to music.
