    Does anyone want to share what they do in their spare time?

    Some of mine include hiking, camping, hunting, nature photography, bar-b-q'ing and spending lots of time with my family.

    Mr.Hobby to the rescue :D

    Just to name a few, I enjoy :fishing, hiking, swimming, collecting firearms, collecting comic books, and my truck is Supercharged and my car is Turbocharged. And if I get bored of that, I also have some RC trucks.

    When putting all things together - family, work and forum management, there really isn't the greatest opportunity for hobbies too often. I think I spend way too much of my spare time on the computer, but I still do enjoy other things like photography, nature-walks (just being outside), and a good book every once in a while.

    Nope, I'm a Traxxas man :D

    Savage is a very good truck...especially for bashing. I came close to buying one my self but went with a Revo instead. Now at the time all they offered them in was small blocks (mines a 2.5 Revo) but I didn't care, I thought the Revo suspession was trick. I installed a OS .18 and never looked back.

    I also have a pair of Emaxx trucks as well. One is my sons which still runs on the factory Titans but mine has a Novak Bushless system :D

    Here is a group shot of my trucks.

    Not too much time between raising a special needs son (ADHD and Asperger Syndrome), designing semi-fulltime, and working a parttime weekend job.

    However my "hobbies' include reading, photography, and collecting scented candles & windchimes. I also like nascar and ice hockey. Tho I seldom get to attend either.

    Shelley, I've never seen your photography work - it's something I am very curious to see. Knowing that you are a graphic designer, I would naturally assume you're fairly skilled in that area as well. ;)

    I love Suspense, thrillers, mystery, old movies, a lot of the Johnny Depp Movies: Edward Scissor Hands <3, The Nightmare Before Christmas. I also love comedy and some musicals, actually, only two, RENT and Sweeny Todd. :P I love to take pictures as well, I am waiting to get a professional camera.

    I'm also into old movies. I like to watch the old sherlock holmes movies (basil rathbone). Though the genre of movies I like are horrors (not the shit you see nowadays) horrors from the 70s and early 80s. Some of my favs are the zombie b flick (day/dawn/night of the dead) Amityville, Evil Dead 1 + 2 (3 was prity bad). City of the living dead (this movie for me induced nightmares as a kid).

    One of my all time favourite movies was citizen X (the russian serial killer Andrei Chikatilo )

    If anyone ever gets the chance to watch braindead try watching this. One crazy movie had me in Hysterics. ;)

    The old movie from Amityville is AWESOME, I was quite disappointed at the newest version.
