well, I'm a computer professional by trade, and I love Music (both playing and listening), especially... ummm... check my name :-)

I use to DJ swing dances, and was a pretty good dancer a year or 2 back. bit out of practice right now. And, I am into "International" video - owning over 100 DVD's and VHS tapes from the UK and Australia, as well as some other countries. Mainly love the comedy stuff, but there are other interests there as well. I'm building a high-end Home Theater system.

And, last but far from least... MUSTANGS!!!!!

I spend 10 hours a day driving a big slow Mack Truck, so when I get home I love nothing more than
going out for a drive in the Mustang, or a ride on my Indian Motorcycle, which ever I'm in the mood for. My hobbies are working on my car and motorcyle. I also love camping and fishing, since there are so many big wide open spaces up here in Canada

Cool thread....

nice to hear what interests everyone. I'm an IT with A+ Network+ certification, finishing up school now to get my MCSE 2000--this is intense stuff but I have an excellent instructor who is a consultant and is teaching me all the stuff that the MCSE's out there in the field get stumped with, so hopefully by the time I'm doing it Professionally I'll be pretty good!

-I love listening to modern rock....
-tinkering with the 'stang
-Offroading my 4x4
-building crazy high quality/ultra inexpensive computer setups for me/friends/family
-messing around online
-Oh yeah and entertaining the wife--we go to Dave and Busters often and see lots of movies in the winter and do all kinds of local fun stuff in the summer

That's about it! Any suggestions? He He

Through the summer, my wife and I attend several car shows and car cruises with the Greater Pittsburgh Mustang Club.
Year round, we support a group that rescues and finds loving homes for Retired Racing Greyhounds. Greyhounds are probably the gentlest, most loving and loyal dogs I have ever known. It is very rewarding when we place a Greyhound into a home.
We also enjoy NASCAR, attending at least one race a season.
Finally, I don't know if it is a hobby or not, but we are constantly updating the house. Our latest project involved gutting and remodling one of the bathrooms. Since we added the Jaccuzi tub, it is now one of our favorite rooms. Next up, a game room in the basement.

Is it summer yet??? :p


Hmm, most of my time lately has been consumed with work. But I have many things I love to do as well... I think I'm more of a hermit in the winter months, because I'll freeze! haha :p (I really need to move to a warm state). All my hobbies are summer hobbies... I love playing on my bike (gixxer), going to shows, my car, going to the beach, going camping, tennis, softball, bowling, going to dinner with friends, seeing plays (theater), swimming :p, and of course shopping <<< (ya'll can feel sorry for my future husband haha I have a shoe fetish, I have over 200 pairs of shoes) :p ... so those are some of the ways I spend my time :)

I love Greyhounds!!!! I sure miss mine. We had her for 12 years. Now, I work a lot of hours and I don't have the space for one. I can't wait until I have a house again. First thing I will be doing is adopting a Greyhound. :)

My other hobbies are: Auto-x (this is a new one to me and I love it), drag racing, detailing my car, hanging out with my friends, going to the local car hangouts, spending time with the man I love ;), spending time with the family, and soon I will be enjoying the art of co-piloting for the BF.
