I've always been fascinated by astronomy and space travel. I still remember watching the first manned lunar landing on my parents old black and white TV way back in July, 1969. Here are some of the most interesting links regarding space flight I've found while browsing the web. The Apollo Lunar Surface Journal is especially fascinating, containing a wealth of audio and video clips and little known information regarding all the manned lunar landings.

People tell me I have rather strange taste in music. I know my wife mostly hates the music that I do listen to :-) But I have an eclectic taste in music, ranging from rock to jazz, to classical. Here are a very few links to composers and bands that I have enjoyed over the years and still continue to listen to.
