Alot of us geek out over basses (upright, electric, what have you), but do you have any other things you geek out about? For me, its watches, cars, and mens fashion (like suits and tuxedos. Yes, I'm a james bond fan). So anyone, anything, share your other obsessions!

For me its cars, boats, motorcycles just about anything else with an engine. Autocross and open track days as well as some drag racing. Building the cars and engines.

Jailbreaking consumer electronics. There's nothing like voiding your warranty 10 minutes after you take it out of the box.

...The idea of owning a 1940's Mosin Nagant 91/30 and an NVA Sks.

I have no idea how I'm going to get an AK-47 into Canada, though.
