My Catch-all, Do-all, Squidoo Compilation...

I created this Squidoo lens as sort of a Catch-All, Do-All Compilation of all my other Squidoos (on the advice of fellow Squidoo-ites). I'm not sure the purpose... maybe it's redundant for me to be creating this blog as well, but hey, I'm open for other ways to create "traffic".

Sprint Car Racing Anyone?

A friend from work does this during his spare time... he not only races these things, but he also builds them, repairs, them, and keeps 'em running. It's an interesting hobby.... I guess when you feel the need for speed, this is one way to get it. Check out this Squidoo site on Sprint Cars to learn more about this wild hobby!

Submarines... Part of the Underwater Adventure!

Even before we went to Guam, I enjoyed watching the show "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea" and movies such as "The Undersea World of Jacques Cousteau". So it was only natural that I'd have a fascination with Submarines. On Guam, I had a lot of chances to see the big black sails popping up in the ocean beyond the reef near the Main Navy Base.



Later, I had a chance to ride in a submarine in Hawaii with my family when we were on vacation.

Guam - Where My Adventures Started and Got Underway!

I was a junior high kid when my folks moved our family from New Mexico to the Western Pacific Island of Guam.... and this was the beginning of an amazing adventure... travels to exotic countries and the chance to get involved and enjoy different cultures, customs, and foods...

Online Presence? How to Get the Traffic? I'm Still Learning!

One of my first Squidoo lenses was on the monitor lizards I frequently ran into while boonie stomping on Guam--namely, the Micronesian monitor lizard -- Varanus indicus. They are interesting critters... and since they are related to Komodo Dragons--another fascinating remnant of the dinosaur world, I thought it would be cool to share what I've learned about these creatures with others who might be interested.
