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!!!

When I returned to this thread and read the fire and lava this once benign volcano of a thread began spewing I was ready to nominate Gullahisland as the president of our Snobish Audiophile Money-Wasting Arrogant Braggarts Society [SAMWABS], but the MoFo has gone soft on us with his last few posts. Oh well...

Now, did someone mention equine-genitalia? Of course that would have to be Marco.
I was just curious what types of activities others were enjoying when not listening to music.

I had no idea it would draw such hatred from some people. Are those who own $5000 bikes or mutliple cases of wine criminals? Is it illegal to be involved in these choices? Good for you for enjoying your life (those of you who do) but remember it is short. Use it wisely and be happy!
Mountainbiking - used to race mtb's about 13-14 years ago(although BOTH my bikes were ripped off last year!!!!!! AAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHH!!!)

I enjoy working out, but chronic back injuries reduce that to a minimum.

Further, art art art!!! I used to really be into creating artwork - pencil, pen and ink, watercolour...

decided to combine my artistic ability and my interest in computers into a career (graphics, web design and multimedia design), although I'm not working in that field at the moment - it's far too unstable. Thankfully, I have a nice, cushy, federal government job that carries me through...

If anyone wants to take a look at some of my artwork, visit the link below (NOTE: the flash section is fully functional, but high speed internet is preferable for viewing)...the standard html section was never completed and, as such, is kinda sparse and lacking...
