$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('The_Toecutter', 'I') like to sit back, puff a pipe full of a cherished plant, and read. I also do other things, but I am away from the means with which to pursue them at this time.


T, ever puff a pipe full of a cherished plant along with burning incense too. :smile:

Most people would say "gardening," but it seems like the folks here consider it a duty rather than a way to relax.

In my youth, I learned the skill of making all the muscles in my body approach 100% max burst output as an act of will instead of an act of OMG GRIMACE MYSELF TO DEATH... My joints remind me of the consequences of this foolish skill on a daily basis.

In my graying years... I've learned a better skill. Make them all approach 0% and be very still (mentally and physically). Then... just listen.

I like to sit outside with a glass of wine and watch the chickens scratch around. Reading is also good, as well as puttering around in the garden. Sometimes I like to get kinda drunk, put on the boxing gloves, and spar with my husband in the yard. When I can get it, it's nice to smoke pot and watch anime. That's the friggin best. Oh yeah, it's great to just sit around and talk about what we're gonna do when everything comes crashing down.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that skill is called an orgasm? Most people in their youth learn that and then most people in their old age end up being very still.
The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price, peace-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life.

Like all good Scotsmen I drink too much beer and follow a notorious football team (the Glasgow Rangers)

On a more socially acceptable level I love my cycling and did about 110 miles today in the gloirous sunshine, maxed out at 38.3 mph! Pure win.

Also enjoy going to music festivals in the summer. Get the tent on the bike and mix many my loves, beer, music and cycling in a weekend of hedonism.

Play on the internet scrabble club. Play scrabble with the kids. (Its distressing when you realize that they are smarter than you are!)

Read about the unravelling of the world's civilization on sites such as this one, zerohedge and so forth- good doomer porn. Watch the end of civilization unfold on youtube, max keiser and so forth- very relaxing??

Walk the dog, take the kids to the park, recreational crimes against nature with my wife, all the usual stuff! :)
