Its a tough job I got, but between that and home...
I take time out to read aplenty. I do Sudoku regularly too (got it loaded on my cell also) and that keeps my brains ticking. Sometimes I try out the word puzzles, but that eventually stays half-solved (unless it is movie-based, but of course!) Over the weekend, I sit together with friends and play some chess, and some trivia-based games, over beers. And of course, I play games on my consoles and PC. Well, USED TO...anyway. And dont say that games dont help the wits, cuz more than once I have found myself feeling more sharper after playing a level of the odd Delta Force or Syphon Filter or F.E.A.R., etc. You should give Sudoku a try, Rod. It actually helps. Try solving one within 30 minutes and you are a genius.;)

Most of my spare time is consumed in reading. Whether it be articles in a mag, or books, or random stuff on the Internet, I always find something useful to read.
Keeps me on my toes and crams all sorts of knowledge into those little grey cells.

I'm naturally sharp as a tack and never need to challenge my mind, no joke.

Writing fiction that requires lots of research keeps me pretty sharp, I guess. I do love a good crossword, buy I usually only do them on planes.
And if you travel internationally, then you know how on the ball you need to be at all times. Between scheduling, getting to and from, what you can wear and bring on, keeping your documents in order, collecting and organizing receipts...wow, I think I just talked myself out of my next trip. :o

Mostly by reading. I'm usually reading in my free time, and usually two books at a time. One fiction, one nonfiction and I switch back and forth as the mood hits me.
