I scuba when I am in the right location. I got into it when I was stationed in Puerto Rico but now I live on the Mississippi Gulf Coast and the water is pretty murky. The Gulf does provide good fishing though, Snapper, some Tuna, Speckled Trout.
I like killing crows and buzzards. I don't hunt for food, that's what the grocery store is for, I just like getting rid of pesky critters.
If you have ever hunted crow you will know they are a good adversary and extremely hard to hunt. They are said to be, along with Ravens, the smartest bir on the planet. It is some work.
I also hang out with my little girl alot and watch Lady and the Tramp, Snow White, Curious George..... She is two and it is a blast seeing her pick things up in those movies. I don't enjoy the movies much but everyonce in awhile I'll make a reference or something about them at work and the guys just look at me wierd. They'll understand someday I guess. Who with little kids hasn't watched a load of kid's programs? I never thought I would.

I spend most of my spare time painting my house and barn. If you own an old Victorian house, you'll know where I'm coming from. I paint one side a year, and by the time I get around the house, it's time to touch up the side i painted 4 years ago. Here is a pic of the porch I painted this year...152 hours of labor and I'm not quite finished with the shutters yet. The details take a LONG time.

Very nice Hemi71

My longest running hobby is gun collecting and shooting.  I shoot sub-gun (fullauto) competition as well as about any other gun sport hobby.  Been at that hobby at least 25 years.  Gun shows are an every other weekend event for me.

Next would be ATV riding on the farm with my kids and sometimes adventures to ATV parks and such.

Old cars would be about a 20 year old hobby, had a lot but rarely keep one but a few years.  Currently I have a 69' Camaro SS Convertible (350) which is a really sharp car but mostly my wife drives it, it is bone stock restored to original.  And my 70' 440 6 pack cuda. 

I love on-line MMORPG games too for when it's too cold to do much outside.

Love doing anything with my kids and I coach a football team every fall.  Other than that work and my wife consume the rest of my life.

As a PITA advocate, I must say I'm appauled  :nono:
The big smile that you put at the end of "just a puff of blood left in the air" leaves me with a visual that no human should have to go through.

Hmmmm where do I start??  I've been in and out of the music scene (currently out) but still have all my equpt. I like to travel, can't go anywhere without renting a car so I can go around and check things out. I like renting buggies out in the desert and goin nuts. Last year took the wife out and she chipped a tooth! But had so much fun she didn't notice it till afterwords. I'm a occasional home brewer. Love to brew (and DRINK it) but the bottling process is a pain in the a$$ , so I gotta be in the mood. Got a fair gun collection, hand guns mostly. Video poker, in VEGAS. And done pretty well (usually). My biggest $$$ other than my cars is my extensive Train collection. If you think MOPARS are expensive some of this stuff is right along with it. Mostly Lionel, years ranging from 1918 to 1972! 

Just read aprils post... How could I forget my dogs!?  So big a part of the family guess it's not a hobby...   :grinno:
