Tinkering. With everything. From cars to electronics. However, I spend most of my time here at my computer.

Making knives from scrap material (like an old sink faucet or shovels), collecting junk (I never throw anything away), and the occasional Atv race.

Hey, I've practiced aikido for almost two decades now.
Nice hobby. :-D

I collect the state quarters, knit, garden, PO of course, and herbal medicine.

I'd like to add spinning (wool, cotton), weaving, dying cloth, and making cheese.

Oh man I am going to get some crap for this but ok,
One of my hobbies is going up 4x4 in the mountains by where I live.
The old jeep likes to suck down a lot of gas and for most of the year I keep it parked, maybe fill it up once a month. Now I will really get crap for this but so I don’t have to pay to keep that hog running me to work and back I drive a small pink s10 pickup also.
I have started to take horseback riding lessons and that is fun, and it gives me a good start on getting myself in a little better shape. I have started hiking I am up to about 13 – 14 miles when I go out and trying to be able to go further.

:shock:

OK, yes, that is a reprehensible hobby. But at least its days are numbered.

Excellent. Hiking is what humans were designed to do. Keep it up! :-D

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'O')K, yes, that is a reprehensible hobby.


Hey, if it's available and you can afford it, why not do it? I'm trying to stamp out the "guilt" over consumption that people have been harboring because it's pointless. Your giving up your 4X4 ain't gonna slow the peak.

My hobbies:

Fiddler for Spruce Rooster Old Time String Band. 8)

Growing, harvesting, preserving, cooking and eating my own food. :)

Dairying :-D

Fantasizing about sexual things. :cry:

Ripping up the forests, eroding the hillsides and disrupting the fauna is every bit as bad as wasting gasoline. Peak oil is just one symptom of man's destructive lifestyle. :x
