obviously everyone is into cars but what else?
me, i collect a whole buncha ****. ive got probably 3,000 comic books, tons of dvds, lots of action figures. ive got a good collection of 1/18 size cars and i just started collecting the tricked out muscle cars by jada toys the big time muscle ones, they are pretty cool. ive got a whole bunch of johnny lightning too. im into scifi and horror stuff along with military things since im a former marine. i buy stuff for my computer and trick that out like i do my car, faster and more performance. i like electronic goodies like home theater stuff, ive got a pretty good set up. i also work out all the time and like to run, maybe because i was forced to for four years! dont call me a dork tho just because i read comics and collect toys cuz im not overweight or a virgin, i dont live in jeans and metallica t shirts or have a mullet just cuz i drive a firebird, ive got a smokin hot wife, a cool car, and the no how to put you down if you **** with me. oh yeah and im also a fan of good beers. if they cost less then 10 bucks for a 12 pack, they taste like **** to me.

Hobbies? Hmmm, does everything about "cars" count? :)

I'm a big reader...comics are cool, I used to be a big fan. But when the prices went up, and story quality went down, I sold my stash and turned all my attention to car mags. I also enjoy reading anything with a historical content dealing w/ automobiles or automotive technology. I also like collecting automotive related stuff like models, pictures, gadgets, etc. Mostly AMC stuff, 'cause I'm nutty enuff to be into 'em. Paranormal events are also a fav of mine, and I'm always looking for stuff to read or watch that deal w/ stuff not of this realm.
I also like wrestling, especially watching "classic" matches. I have quite a few of 'em on tape. I also try and catch "Smackdown" or local events from time to time.
I've also been known to drink a few beers and lift a few weights, but not at the same time. :)
Man, there is so much more I'm into...but right now "sleep" sounds like a good thing to be into...

People think my whole life revolves around cars or whatever, but thats simply not the case. Im really into reading, watching, listening all about WWII. I am collecting things from the war, reading a few books about it, and I am always the one watching the History channel when it deals with the second world war. I am also really into paintball. If it werent so damn expensive to play I would be playing paintball alot more than working on my car. I am fan baseball, mostly playing it, we get alot of pick-up games around by me so every sunday its either baseball, football or paintball. Im a HalfLife addict. I play CounterStrike:Source, Day of Defeat, and almost all HalfLife mods online. There is more, but im feeling under the weather today and am just tired. Take it easy.

Hobby, well lets see.
I coach, or coached Pop Warner Football. I coach the smallest division in which they can beat the crap out of eachother, mighty mite. Ive done it for 2 years now, but have had to stop due to time constrictions. Please hold the "kid toucher" comments cause they are getting old.

I scuba dive when I can. And I love photography (b/w) and video editing. I also read a lot when I have down time. Racing and school keep me busy enough though.

i play basketball at the park when i have time. texas hold 'em is fun, but i've been in a slump, so i haven't played much lately. idk if this is considered a hobby, but i like politics. i used to be into models, but not so much anymore. reading, mostly classic literature or politics.

i've been skateboarding for about ten years now, i cant give it up. its hard to find time to do it these days, maybe once a week or so, but that is number one. its like family now, i am stuck with it, i could ignore it for a while but it'll be back. i recently also started playing guitar, thats cool, i like it. probably been playing for 8-9 months now, picking up stuff as i go.

there are other hobbies? hehe
honestly cars are pretty much all i do. all centered around f-bodies.
i have tons of books, print ads, and die casts. i spend most of my free time either in my driveway or working on club/event stuff.
nothing else has ever really grabbed my attention teh way cars can.

I skateboard every now and then. I used to play guitar, but not very much anymore. I read car mags like its my job. I want to learn to play the drums, but I can't afford a drum set :( . I used to do "missions" with my friends. you know, everyone meet up and plan out how we can steal a giant menorah from in front of a shopping center, or get on top of the high school and hang a huge sign off it...typical young guy stuff. once we got a cement statue of a lion on top of a warehouse roof and tossed it off. that was fun. it sucked getting the damn statue up there though :lol:

:funny: that riminds me of stuff my friends and i used to do in high school, just good general mischeif. there is a fine line from mishief to vandalism though, i am glad i got that stuff out of my system and mostly before i turned 18. a near disorderly persons straightened my ass out.

i love music. its my passion... f-bodies are acoustically one of the best cars on the market for a stereo system, which is an added plus. i love rock and alternative music like coldplay, dave matthews, lifehouse, dashboard confessional, etc....

i also love basketball, quads and dirt bikes, and i do enjoy reading. i read alot about Christianity and morality and stuff like that. those books are really good tools for how to live life.

Hate to admit this, but we might actually get along. Have many of the same hobbies, and too many old books, games, posters and crap. Ebay has been my friend lately as that old TSR stuff finds a new home.

So the new hobbies are... dreaming about my car running, reading vampire / werewolf novels, internet gaming, playing guitar, playing with my kids, watching sports on TV (when I have time) and... downloading as much Metal / Hard Rock / Classic Rock as I can squeeze out of my cable modem. Got my oldest (5yrs) hooked on Pink Floyd and my middle one (3yrs) loves Alice in Chains. Still can't figure that one out.

In addition to my obsession with my cars, I also play the guitar, collect 1/18 Firebird/Trans Am's, and Emmitt Smith football cards.

My Emmitt cards are my pride and joy too. I've got several professionall graded by BGS cards graded at a 9.5 Gem Mint rating, including ALL of his RC cards (one of which is worth $800-1000 in that graded condition).
