Hobbies include collecting fashion photographs, cognitive science, music (a strange couple maybe, my favorite genres are classical and hardcore punk; have season tickets to the Seattle Symphony which I think is top notch). I also volunteer for a local non-profit playhouse and gallery doing lowly volunteer stuff. I never think of my hobbies as hobbies, they're just stuff I am interested in and do. It's takes someone else to point them out as hobbies. Unlike with some people you hear about, I never decided or was told I needed to find a hobby. I've been doing stuff ever since I was little kid, much of which would be labeled as hobbies.

I've always been interested in woodworking and just recently got into restoring antique radios. Here's a before and after. It works like new and I listen to it 4-5 times a week.

Illini- that sounds really cool. I assume each one has its own tank. We had another piranha before this one, and we introduced the red belly one as a baby into the same tank. When red got big enough, he killed the other. He spent the rest of his life in a 55 gallon tank. Once we tried to move him and we took a big net and cornered him at one end of the tank. Then out of nowhere he shot across like a buzzsaw, making a hole right through the net. But he was a great pet, I cried when he died.

You asked...."Did you request that plate number Ted or was it just luck?"

I found this old Pennsylvania license plate in an Antique shop.

Looks like everyone is into a lot of interesting "hobbies" or should I say more correctly "lives". Personally, I spend a considerable amount of time coaching basketball and cross country at the high school level, it has been an exciting ride over the last 25 years. Playing guitar (personal enjoyment only) and travelling with my wife (this summer Australia and New Zealand) are my primary vices. I also love it when the family is able to get together at the same time. Below is a photo of everyone and their significant others and also my first convertible (sorry, no photo with the top down).

Let's see.... Collecting old cabinet cards, stereoview views, post cards, and old maps of California, San Francisco, Yosemite, Contra Costa County, and other places of interest I have been to. I also backpack and snow ski the Sierra's as often as I can.
