註釋In this rollicking memoir author Paul Stevens recounts his efforts to become an ocean going sailor (at 60), a surfer (at 65), and a skier (at 68), by compensating his complete lack of sporting talent with sheer determination. Along the way he gets a new body, and a whole new outlook on life. The inspiration to succeed at these sports springs from an experience early in life in which he mastered the binomial theorm. Funny yet informative this book on three sports which intersect at points also takes the reader on the inside track to longboard surfing in middle age by focusing on the journey itself to that first amazing ride. Also included are bonus articles: - 10 Minute Power Guide to Home Exchange In 10 minutes this article will tell you all you really need to know about using Home Exchange to further your travel ambitions. - Ski Beirut Impressions of a 1 week skiing trip to Mzaar, near Beirut, in Lebanon, and sightseeing in Beirut.
