  Two activities I've loved over the years are weight training (45 years) and playing drums (20 years). When I see someone strong who's worked hard in a gym to accomplished feats of strength or building a physique I get inspired to work harder. When I see an amazing drummer like Dave Weckl playing jazz, it inspires me to want to play drums again. As a kid I was always intrigued by Arnold Schwarzenegger, Lou Ferrigno, Franco Columbo and muscle men of a given era - Ronnie Cole, Phil Heath current era. It made me work harder. When I'd hear Neil Peart or John Bonham playing drums, it made me want to pick up my sticks and play. And play I did for hours per day for nearly 20 years. I was self-taught and played straight off of albums. It was the talent and finesse of great athletes and/or musicians that inspired me to want to be better.
  
  
  Having said all of that. I'm off to practice my poetry. I think you catch my drift, bud. more »
