What other obsessions do you have?


It's obvious that many of the people here have gone off the deep end (yes I include myself) with equipment and music purchases.

The question is what other obsessions do you have, or what else are you really into?

I was getting carried away with Martial Arts before an injury sidelined me, I would rather ride my motorcycle than drive, and I spend way too much time on the computer (most of it on AudiogoN). If I had the money I would have a bigger and better collection of wine. Other than that I'm perfectly sane! NO really!!!

Wife, Motorcycles, Photography, Film, Dogs and Sex. Not necessarily in that order. I never mix Sex with the canine obsession, though have combined it with the others with some degree of success at times. It goes real well with my wife, but I wouldn't recommend it to any of you less'en you be liken' me to open up a big ol' industrial-sized can-O'-WhoopAss all over your sorry self.

DannyLW,

Once I got my Seven (Alaris with Chorus/FSA carbon cranks/Eurus wheels) My custom Serrotta Csi became one more thing to dust!!! I haven't riden it since the Seven arrived. BTW Seven got me the bike 14 days after I was measured for it!!! Thanks guys!!!

Other interests..

Single cask scotch, wine, cars, Cuban cigars....usually with scotch, traveling, pets (we have a Great Dane, Golden Retreiver and three cats), photography (both digital and 35mm) to name a few.
Rediculously fast street cars.
I'm building a car around a 521ci engine which happens to be a 1965 Mustang. Building a reliable 700hp+ engine with no nitrous oxide, turbos, or supercharger is a challenge, but building a car to accept and withstand it is nuts. It seems like every single part has to be hand fabricated. Front suspension, rear suspension, chassis, headers, exhaust system, rear axle, rack and pinion, brakes, electrical system, fuel system, and on and on.

I really have no business being into such an expensive hobby. Audio can be very expensive, too, but the car is where I sink more cash.
motorcyling (BMW R850R: go on long runs - nyc to quebec city, maine, upstate ny, all point in new england as well as various points in southern europe). however a bit overdone on the biking at the moment, focusing more on martinis, cooking and culinary arts...
Mountain biking, for about 10 years now.
I bought a Seven Sola last year and I just love the titanium ride.
