What DOES Red Sox Steve care about anyway?

By Red Sox Steve

Here is a list of things (in no particular order) I came up with that I'll be interested in exploring to varying degrees for the rest of my life. I put it together in 2008, just before the end of my cubicle days, and even though it requires slight amendment from time to time, it's a good general list of what I'm most interested in paying attention to. I hope you find it as thought provoking as I do. I have more to say about it, but will do so at a later time. For now, I'm just putting it out there.
