Hobbies?

Sign in to disble this ad
I dont consider bass a hobby.. it is more than a hobby.. and not quite an obsession for me.. Soething that I do that I really enjoy and would like to keep on doing as long as I can.. but do have a hobby.. I am an avid flight simmer.. actually ..

Hi my name is Barry .. and I'm a FLIGHT SIM JUNKIE..

I like the WWII genre... pretty active comm,unity.. a lot of folks over 30 there.. real sticklers for detail.. loads of fun...

So what do you guys do when you aren't working , playing or practicing...

talking to hot babes online all day...


On a more serious note, playing xbox with my friends, or building something out of scrap around the house. I love doing stuff like that.

if i'm not watching tv/football, playing bass, or playing madden then i'm reading books on the civil war and/or victorian naval affairs. i have a closet full of small model ships i made a few years ago, i'd do more of them but i don't have the time/space anymore.

I design/illustrate/program games for a hobby, and maybe one day for a living.
I bike a lot.
I debate.
I draw.

I post short sentences on forums.
