Pretty simple what else do y'all like to do for fun?

Me I'm big into motorcycles, judo, fishing, and love to go shooting. As a mater of fact till about a week ago I thought n mp40 was just a gun y'all liked to buy :)

Hanging with teen-agers (they really are fun, and funny too)

Playing board games with the family and friends

Raising and caring for my chickens (back yard flock of 11 birds)

Exploring the great outdoors (when it's warm enough to wear short sleeves but not warm enough for ticks, so maybe 2 weeks out of the year! LOL.)

Watching TV (always fun for me)

+1 for the shooting. I think thats the only sport I'm active in. I go almost every week if not every other week. Thats just as much a wallet emptier as reefing is.

Bass fishing and a 5 year old. Any time left over typicaly goes into my tanks. When it gets colder my tanks always look better because the fishing slows down.

I use to do all kinds of extreme sports - race bikes, cliff jump, hike all the time... now I just spend time with my tanks and stay out of the ER room. I am up to 33 broken bones and 5 documented concusions it was time to slow down..

Here's a few pics of the carnage and fun from my bike days.....

When the weather is warm I am a hooker- I spend most of my time looking for my balls in the woods. Get your mind out of the gutter, I'm talking about GOLF.

I like to paint (walls and art) although I am not very good at it. I love snorkling and scuba diving but those are not things I get to do regularly.....

Most of my free time is spent at home with my wife and three year old. When I get some down time I like to cyberkill mobsters and vampires. :D

Sounds like y'all need n arc golf game or something. I'll play the put put with the kids cause I sure can't play golf. For shooting I'm about the same 2 or 3 times a month but u can save a ton of cash if u reload or just get a gun that shoots cheap ammo like .22 for practice.

Gee... things I actually do:

Reefing, concerts, hiking (weather permitting), drinking, gaming, gardening (not very good at it... thanks to not being more attentive to the weather channel last week)

Things I like to do but havent been (time, money, location):

Beach going, shooting, camping, drawing, ceramics, screen printing

I thought about reloading my own ammo but I'm not ready to cough up all that money for the reloaded just yet. I really want one though because most if the firearms I shoot use very expensive ammo. Here's a picture with a few of my favorite friends. I sleep with these guys by my side everynight. http://184.72.239.143/mu/410f4e74-86d7-1df2.jpghttp://184.72.239.143/mu/410f4e74-86ed-4621.jpg

I usually mtn bike, fish, hunt, work on my car(BMW's are a pain sometimes btw)....hiking, camping, cliff diving(only in Hawaii though)....Basically anything that gets a rush of adrenaline, I'll do it....there really isn't much I wont do for fun....if I can get hurt in some way, shape, or form.....I'd probably do it...........and yes when your not a trained technician....working on a overly expensive to repair car can give you a adrenaline rush.....especially when you go to crank it after you've been fiddling around under the hood.... :)

Used to be restoring cars. No time. Still have one. Still love to wheel in my old jeep as well. Only have one. 77cj-7.
I used to love building and restoring old furniture. Just got back into that. I just tore down a 120yr old house that was hand built by my wife's family. It's like finding treasure when you pull boards that old and the only damage is human wear on them. Termits must have had more woodland then.

I like to paint! It's what I do for a living so that's a good thing! I paint commercial jets, I also can be a bit of a nerd, I love to play with anything R/C. I have a few planes i built i can fly no prob, I have a new traxxas revo and I just got into the brushless electric stuff and bought the new brushless slash. My helicopter is another story! I'm good at crashing that bad boy! It's so hard! I'm getting better slowly! Other than that, I'm a private pilot, and I love anything aviation related. We love to go on vacation and love to go diving! The reef tank takes up all the other time!!

Close up of the body, I masked out the body and shot a pearl white here on the striping so it's transparent. You can see right through the body and see the blue roll cage! It turned out well I think.

We had the nitro rustler but after getting the brushless electric I'll never go back. Nitro is 90% tuning 10% playing electric is 90 %playing 10% tuning it. plus we don get run off from local parks or cause attention at skate parks.Why are you selling the revo?Ive got 2 lipos for the rally and dp drift tires.I drove it around my office with an adult toy attached to it the other day

stoney1118
12-12-2010, 10:44 AM
Lol nice mark, nice!! I'll get the model number off my charger for ya, it's IMO the best one for the money, 150 gets you the charger plus all the pre fab leads you should need. Includes balancing block for the lipos and will operate off 12v or 110. And it'll charge up to 6cell lipos, insanity. I can't imagine what would need a 6s but you never know!

Since I work at a pet store, I have other animals as well, mostly rescues. A lot of time goes to my cats, tree frogs, birds, ball python, hamster, and tarantula. I count this as "fun", at least when it's not bedding change day.

But really, we are geeks. We play video games (currently up to my eyeballs in Dragon Age with Starcraft 2 sprinkled in), watch a lot of scifi, and every year we go to DragonCon, which is like Christmas for geeks. I will post some pics later when I have time.

Ugh, zillion zerglings... what is it with guys and the unwinnable, carpal-tunnel-hell games? My brother and husband and most other gamer guys I know love those endless waves of enemies kind of games. I generally don't see the point if I can't win, mostly because my carpal tunnel problems just make it more and more painful the longer I go.

I have played it, though. Also DoTA at a lan party or two... but I'm done with that kind of game.
