He hadn't done it in the last couple of years, but when he came to the states he was a heck of a ballroom dancer. He also liked to frequent the pubs when he got here. He loved to say that he never had a full glass when he was at the pubs.

He would tell me about working on a police force oversees or some other adventure he experienced in the navy. For a while I found it really hard to understand him because he had a really thick accent.
