*sigh*

I'm sooo one dimensional. Obviously I gotta get out more. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smirk.gif
 
Photography and flying (both for fun and work), ham radio, model airplanes, drawing, writing software, and *gulp* computer war games. Such a geek...such a geek.
 
Ok, seriously though – I play guitar and piano. I also enjoy doing home upgrade projects. Oh, and I run this web site!
 
~Model Steam Engines~ (my Dad was a steam engine mechanic in the UK).
Flying an ~old taildragger~.
R/C planes.
~FIRST Robotics~ Competition.
Sustainabilty and alternate energy sources (I live in a passive solar, direct-gain house I built over 25 years ago).
Hanging out with my (huge) ~family~ while talking politics and drinking Good Beer.
Amusing myself with my inept guitar playing.
 
I have lots of things I like to do. But I'm a single parent and have a teenager. So I really don't have a life anymore right now. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smirk.gif
 
Hmmm! Darts, beer, collecting model cars (die-cast etc., but really just an extension of the LBC thing!) and old books, antiquities, beer, darts,.... /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/driving.gif /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cheers.gif
 
Been racing sailboats for 30+ years. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cheers.gif
 
Let's see, restoring antique radios, ham radio, golf, bicycling, beer making, model airplanes (static models and radio control), playing the guitar, viola, and piano, and Linux.
 
I have recently (only 7 months ago) become a runner, have done only one race so far 10k in 51 minutes 50 seconds.
Also love sailing but currently boatless.
If I won the lottery I would add travel to the list!

If a 'hobby' can be defined as a use of time that provides enjoyment, then sleeping and eating are mine.

I call shenanigans on this. I do both of these things and you're never at any of the meetings!!!

Aside from that, I also-barely, mind you-play the guitar. I collect books and records, and am into photography as well. I've also recently become a rail geek, which gives me more things to buy books about and to photograph.
