Its related to taking photos here, I enjoy customizing figure & making dioramas. I have sent alot of time recently planting flowers around the house, and I enjoy sitting outside in the evening, drinking a Mic Ultra and enjoying my yard. I saltwater flyfish and tie my own flies. I am an avid sailor, used to live on my sailboat before I got married. I have had several boats, my last one a 30' Hunter was destroyed in hurricane Charlie in 2004, it broke my heart. We are looking into getting another as the kids are getting older to be our retirement house. Then you will see shots of just a few figs but in exotic locations.

Hobbies.. hrm..

Well, firstly I program. I'm a software engineer, and so I program all day at work, and when I go home I stop at a coffee shop or bookstore and program for myself for about two hours depending on the mood. Lots of personal programming projects. Some for business, some for adding to my skills, and some just to maintain past projects, so they are up to date.

Within this, HPC.. High Performance Computing. Can this be considered a hobby? I think so. Gots lots of computers, and one is an HPC cluster. Clusters like these are often used to build low cost super computers.

Hobbies also include sampling the coffee culture around the world. I do travel and like to travel far. My wife also travels more often than I do, and has been to far more countries than I have. I love being in airports. Always traveled when I was a kid, so that has grown on me I guess. In terms of coffee culture it just means I go to coffee shops and have an interest in anything coffee... coffee mug collection, books on coffee, recipes, latte art, etc.

Another hobby is collecting books. I guess from my days and many sleepless nights at the university's libraries, I've grown to like books a lot. There was a time when I just could not afford them, but now that I can, I buy lots of them. Computer books, science fiction, fantasy, manga, and especially classic literature. If I can find a classic literature in hardback form, I'll buy it. So I have this personal library in my house. One day it is my dream to build my own house and to have built in shelves in the hallways to keep all the books from floor to ceiling. Isn't there a word for someone who seriously collects books? Another interesting thing is my wife also has a book collecting hobby.

But anyway, within that hobby of book collecting, I can branch into it and mention a sub-hobby collecting history books -- anything Asia, Art of War, military history, etc. This is probably because my first degree is in History.

Let's see.. what else...

Fountain pens. I collect them. It's a small collection because it's expensive. But I really do like fountain pens and have several old ones from the 1930's and 40's, and more modern ones.

Digital art. I am involved with doing computer art from time to time. Unfortunately my main computer for that has been down for a while. But that will change since I just ordered lots of new stuff.

So, now onto the Joes... I army build. Pure and simple, I've gotten into a habit of buying at least one Joe figure every time I go to a store. And thanks to someone here in JoeDios, I now collect Microman. And thanks to JoeDios, I now collect things for building sets.

And I can't forget my customs! That's a big hobby now as I begin collecting the components for my Dio-Story. Lots of customs.

Coming soon: 'JoeSpecialOps'

I do a lot of writing, some stories I'm trying to reinvent so as to make a Dio-Story of them. If I ever figure out how to get Yola to do what I want it to do,(y'know, work and be easy to understand and use) I'll post some of my short stories along with my Dio-Stories.

Currently being unemployed and without a car, I walk. A lot. Every now and again I'll drag a figure or two with me and try to snap their picture, but most of the time those shots don't come out too well because there's too much real world interferance in the back ground.

When I did have a means of transportation, usually it was equiped with a front differential and a transfer case. For those of you not mechanically inclined, that means a four wheel drive. I've enjoyed wheelin' for about the last ten years and have tried to make it to Moab, Utah, the Off-Road Mecca, as much as possible. I've build my last seven vehicles, Three full-size Chevy Blazers, three Jeep Grand Cherokees and a Chevy Suburbanator, from formidable stock vehicles to very formidable pieces of trail bashing bad-ass-a-tiv-ness.

Driving is also a bit of a hobby for me. I am a truck driver by trade, but I never thought of it as a job, but more of being a paid tourist. I had the office with the best veiws. I have seen more of this country and Canadia than I would have seen otherwise.

Music is a passion for me as well. Not just any music, but the best genre of music there is, from which everyone's favorite tanker is named; Heavy Metal. I've got several books that are refrenced to the history of Heavy Metal and how it dominates over ever other kind of music. I did play bass for a bit and tried a few bands out, but found out that it's hard to play for a long time due to the arthritis in my paws.

I try to get to the range as often as I can and throw some lead a defensless paper targets. Reminds me of time in the Marines when we practiced to defend the country from eight foot by eight foot cheesecloth squares with black consintric circles printed on them. Thank Dog that invasion hasn't happened yet!

Some people, when trying to avoid thinking about those things that cause them pain, turn to drink, or perhaps food, or drugs... I turn not to any of those... I collect action figures, turning my mind to the hunt, so that I might find a mote of peace... Over the years, I've found that alcoholism is much more socially acceptable by far.

I like to make collages in my free time and I do some community activism and other such stuff.



Hahahaaha I hope you're kidding, unless by "Heavy Metal" you mean grindcore

Have you ever thought of making a 1/18th scale R/C off road vehicle that can carry Joes securely?
