I've been collecting and shooting medium and large bore handguns for about ten
years and have a collection containing 24 pistols and 19 revolvers.
Fortunately, in my county, it's easier to buy a handgun than it is a pack of
cigarettes or a bottle of wine!

I am also a collector of anything that I *might* need "some day". My girlfriend
calls it a pack rat, but she doesn't understand ;-)

Oh, I breakdance, I compose lots of different music, I play pinball, and I drool
(over the pinballs I have no money for, and the music equipment I have no money

and a half.
My indoor plants ( 30 ) are starting to complain that I don't pay as much
attention to them as before. My body is complaining that it's not getting enough
workouts. ( maybe it's an age thing ).
I have a large record collection (1000?) that I'd like to transfer parts of to
CD. Most of them are 70's & 80's hard rock. ( a collective groan from my parents
who had to put up with my music ) The metal guitar lessons are still waiting for
me to practice. ( maybe by the time I'm 50 I'll be good enough to start my band -
Geezer ). My recumbant bicycle has taken a back seat during the summer to the
1000 Virago. ( I call it my 1000 viagra - puts lots of power between my legs )
The cat scratching post ( hobby/ business ) has been slowed down due to lack of
time for proper marketing. ( the cat's happy though - one post for each of her
favourite windows ) .
I'm not a computer expert but would like to find some time and learn more about
the computer.
( web page building , investing, e-bay etc. etc.) I used to read a lot of novels
( haven't read one for probably three years) Reading the newspaper takes an hour
each day. Checking RGP and e-mails is another time consumer. Playing hockey once
or twice a week is getting tough.
After typing all this out I've come to the conclusion that I have to cut down on
the number of things I'd like to do otherwise I'll never get good at anything. :

Thanks for the self help session:

someone would eventually ask! It's interesting to see if any other
pinheads have similar interests. I love golf, fishing (that includes
ice fishing, rare for a woman!), bowling and how I miss my motorcycle!
But the pin I bought in place of it was worth it - for now.

memorabilia. Recently purchased a '59 Cadillac and plan to use it to pull my
older travel trailer ('63 Traveleze). Have a decent set of post war Lionel
pieces. Went rock climbing a month or so ago for the first time, not sure I'll
commit this to a hobby yet. Trout fishing, smoking cigars, and listening to the

Along with PB, the other big ones are: motocross and snowboarding
Lesser ones are: Ultimate frisbee and frisbee golf, volleyball, comic

Of course all of the above are superceded by the availability of an

Other hobbies that I have (ranked according to how much time I spend
on each):
Creating and solving (mainly solving) math (especially algebra)
puzzles,
Bowling,
Listening to any type of fast paced music, sound, or TV theme,
Reading various magazines (Scientific American, Games Mag,
Kliplinger's Finance, and solving some of the puzzles in Dell's Math
and Logic Problems magazine),
Chess (don't play that much now as I used to while I was in high
school),
Playing with my GameBoy
Card games, and
Crocheting (haven't done this in a few years though).
My main hobbies, though, are playing pinball, running a pinball league
(I'm running two leagues a year) , and bowling.

day or so, I keep saying "hey, I like that too!" ... :-)
Active hobbies besides pinball include: computer programming (in addition to
what I do at my full time job - ack!), analyzing the stock market, skiing (only
~2 weeks a year usually, wish it was more), playing in the ocean, travelling in
general, and the most recent addition, "educated" gambling (analyzing and
playing positive-expectation blackjack and video poker, mostly).
On the inactive list: classic vids (Joust/Defender/Tempest, that era), model
railroads (haven't done in many years, want to get back someday).

Hmm. Only have four strings on mine. Rickenbacker 4001 and an Ibanez
copy of that one.
Used to play in a Thrash Metal band, but that split up and now I look
for something
more spaced out (like Hawkwind, BOC, Floyd, Rush, etc.)...
Also, British Sports Cars (which go NEATLY around corners, I noted you
guys are
mostly into big cast iron block US muscle cars with leaf springs ;).
My daily ride is virtually parked at http://www.flash.net/~coaster1/lotus.htm
(the Pretty Woman variety) If you have nice cars, you might want to park them
there, too! Oh, I also have an old Lotus Esprit S2 (the James Bond
variety) that
has been under constant restoration for 10 years now.
And of course, working to save for a bigger place that will take more pinballs.

pinball). I also am starting to indulge in a hankering for good artwork.
Recently bought an impressionist print from J. Picot for a bargain, and
currently have commissioned a friend of my father's who carves birds out of
wood to make me a model of my favorite bird, the Bald Eagle. This guy is SO
GOOD, I just gave him catre blanche on it. All I said was "Bald Eagle." And
I'll pay him whatever he asks.
I'm also beginning to show interest in travel (my trip to Australia was even
beyond my overhyped expectations), and driving--fast. Hey, when you've got an
'88 Ford Crown Vic on I-696, you're gonna be gunning it too. One of these
days, I'm going to get myself a BIG time speeding ticket. But not today! I
may be fast, but I'm VERY safe, and not in the least bit careless, reckless, or
rude.
There are other things like my workouts with my best friend, but that's all
just part of life.

NOT PAY to be a job.
Uhm.. Other hobbies? I do some writing for a friend who's an artist,
mostly in Anthropormorphics. (Don't know? Don't ask. You aren't missing
anything.)
If you weren't worried about me before, you probably are now. :>

As you all know, I'm a record collector. I'm glad to see so many RGPers
involved with music. Maybe some of you will see your pinball song issued
on Extra Ball Records (from Multiball magazine).
Another hobby that I indulge in passively is one I have yet to see mentioned
in this thread, despite its close affiliation to coin-op games: coin and
token collecting!

Wizard flyers front and back. What else :)
I listen to the pinballl wizard on my DVD in 5.1 Digital of course. LOL

I've got a fair collection of tokens, most of them from arcades I've
never been to. I find them in the bottom of cabinets, and stuck in
coin mechs, and I throw them in a jar.
I've never been much of a hobbyist; I'm not even terribly serious
about "collecting" pinball machines. I am fascinated by motion
pictures, probably more than the average person is, but less than some
are. I love music, but doesn't everyone? I bought a LOT of records
when I was in middle school and high school, but now I generally don't
buy more than three or four per year.
I'd love to be able to sit down and read for a few hours a night, but
the circumstances of my life in the coin-op biz make this impossible
right now. Oh well...

New hobbies: Crossbow hunting and fishing. I once caught 2 snappers
simultaneously and almost landed a nurse shark once! Perhaps a new idea for
Fishtales 2.....?
Also fitness. I jog almost everyday and do at least 300 pushups daily. I go to
Bally's (the gym not <sob> the pinball company) a few times a week.
The movies (esp. Pay-Per-View), bowling, hydrosliding, waterskiing and computer
graphic design.
