I'm going to check your video when I get home tonight. I sadly cannot watch them from work on account of many folks being around me.

For my part my hobbies include drawing, video games and more prominently so in the past two years : writing.

I enjoy reading, drawing (though I don't do it often enough), the occasional blast of XBox, and my new passion: cooking.

Parkour isn't really even a hobby anymore, it's kind of my life... so that doesn't count. Other than that, gymnastics, slacklining, juggling, swing dancing, taekwondo, rock climbing/bouldering.

Eh, I still collect 40k. Well, paint more than collect.

I also do a bit of writing and drawing, neither of which are any good.
Hey, Blue? I'm loving the things you do. From the very first time, the fight you fight for will always be mine.

Seconded.





I suppose I might like this if I even slightly enjoyed "rap". I really don't feel BS-rapping either -- meaning rapping about things you don't/won't have. I can at least appreciate rap developed around the individual and their actual situation (IE. Black Thought, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, etc.) rather then the persona/lifestyle they choose to don. (IE Lil' Wayne, Soulja Boy, mainstream radio garbage). Just my 0.02.


And has anyone told you that you sound like the guy from Gym Class Heroes?

I like to go hiking and mountain climbing. Here's a video clip from an ascent of Algonquin Peak in the Adirondack Park from 2 years ago.

I tend to find a hobby after moving to a new place, then loose it after moving again because I can't do it there or some other reason, usually money.

Past hobbies have included:

Archery (Was doing it as I was still growing, got annoying how my body kept growing and I'd have to make adjustments)

Paintball (Quit because of Drama going on in the sport .. bunch of freaking drama)

Fencing ($$ Issue/Training partner was making the moves on me)

Scuba (Don't live near a good body of water/Dive buddies)


And I just noticed three of my four biggest hobbies include a weapon.
I've been dying to get some real guns. I want to shoot things.

Darkjedibob .. make sure you are using the correct size/quality oiled orings?
There's no reason they should be blowing on you, it (should) just be a regular ASA with a line between your gun and your pack.
2009-11-02, 11:27 AM #21
eMp, I liked that a lot. It's not my favorite kind of music, but you sounded great.

I'm running real low on hobbies lately, but at the moment I've been spending most of my extra money on firearms related things...it's a lot of fun, and I'm trying to become proficient with the ones I have now.

My roommates also got xboxes and huge HD flatscreen tvs, so whenever I have some free time and they're not busy, I've been playing CoD4 and Fallout 3.

Also, I pick around on a guitar sometimes. I can't really play, but I like the sound, haha.

Was oiled and blew first day out. It's supposed to take the standard replacement o-rings, but wouldn't seal when the slide check was live. Could retain air through the line, just not to the marker. Even tried ordering o-rings that were specifically labeled as replacements for this coil, and those worked even less. I sent it back for a replacement, as there were enough remarks about these coils working fine even without replacement o-rings.

going through amazon reviews specifically the 1 and 2 star reviews has recently become a hobby... so much massive fail on the part of the people writing these reviews where they didn't know how to setup/use the item so they give it a bad review on amazon

quite a bit of it with AV equipment reviews

Size the O-rings up (or take it with you), then go to an industrial pneumatic/hose supply store and buy their O-rings. You can get them in bulk. They're a lot cheaper than the O-rings from a paintball store, and much stronger. That's what I used to do :\

Most of my free time is spent doing: exercise, computer graphics, reading and watching movies.

Hill-walking and a bit of rock-climbing
Kayaking when I get the chance

Since I moved back south to the land of the flat I've taken up general natural history; watching and photographing nature.
I mostly bird watch through the winter and then branch into entomology and a little bit of botany in the warmer months. One of the few good things about London is the natural history society here. I wouldn't have learnt half the things I have so far without the expertise of the people in the LNHS.

Oh and computer games

eMp, I had your song playing and my roommate asked me, "Who is that? That song sounds really good."

You've got talent man!

My hobbies are typical of a college student. Hanging with friends, video games, enjoying the outdoors, watching movies, listening to all types of music, and of course, being an occasional drunk.

Mb can attest that over the last year I've gotten fairly obsessed with music and guitars. Otherwise, Cooking and Baking.
nope.

Other than video games, lately it's been poker and beer-tasting.

Boatbuilding, sailing, rowing, powerboating, hiking. Throwing axs, meat cleavers, knives. Used to be into R/C monster trucks. Too expensive.
