Audio as a hobby


The only problem with audio and music: it a very passive hobby. Of course you could ride a stationary bike or even have sex while listening to music . But then audio/music becomes sort of secondary. So the question, do any of you have an active, non-passive hobby that is the equal to audio/music??? Just curious, or all of you just couch potatoes???

The only other things I can think of that I go crazy over just as much as audio — is computer graphics, but that's how I make my living, so I don't know if that counts, and mixed martial arts [like Ultimate Fighting Championship, etc..] but I never had any sanctioned fights, heck I haven't even trained in a long time, but I do still watch and follow it with a passion. Boy, that sure was a major run on sentence. Oh, and I love cars and Latin women. Can't forget them!
Bufus, did you happen to hear the results from the latest Pride event in Japan August 28th? It had a mixture of Pride and K1 kickboxing rules, some brutal knockouts. The pay-per-view for this event is scheduled to premier this weekend Sept. 1st, I'll be in Cabo so I'll have to Tivo it. Also, did you see the recent broadcast of the Vitor Belfort vs. Chuck Liddell fight at UFC 37.5? Awesome fight.

Nrchy, I'd be interested to hear how your TKD studio assimilated some of the Tao of Jeet Kune Do into it's practice. The gym I studied at was the IMB Academy in Torrance, CA. which is also very close to many of the Gracie and Machado BJJ schools. Richard Bustillo the head of IMB was an original Bruce Lee student at his Los Angeles Chinatown school in the '60's. Although I got to a level where I was able to train with the senior students [just barely] I rarely had the chance to practice Jun Fan [Bruce Lee's given name], which are the techniques based on his early teachings. We did a lot of Muay Thai, Jiu Jitsu and Kali. Training there it was difficult to remember what NOT being injured felt like.

OK Viggen, you've gotta tell the forum members the story about your knee injury, and especially the fix.
