Other Hobbies??

[Orangepeel]

Besides your kickass computer ;), what other hobbies do you have? Here's a few of mine:

1) I design and make homemade teddy bears. This is my biggest thing right now. (I'll show you a pic in a new post :)

2) Have a nasty liking for Beanie Babies that has died off considerably (thank goodness!!!). Now I just make bears. Maybe I'll do a pic of that too...just ask Scottman, he's seen 'em! Heehee!

3) Like to try new recipes,

4) LOVE to horseback ride, don't do enough of this anymore... :( The faster, more spirited the pony, the BETTER!!! Used to pick races, and tear down the field at full gallop!! I wonder why Rod won't go with me??? :D :D

5) Plants! Veggies, cacti, etc...

6) Talk too much, heh ;)

7) Anything cute 'n cuddly (Bossman included...LoL!)

Yeah, I can certainly vouch for the teddies. Oops, better make that Teddy Bears. PEOPLE!! Get your minds out of there!

Sherry once showed my Wife and I the bears she had made. We thought they were professionaly made. Quite the handy little lady!

Uhh, aren't equistrian sports (or however you spell it, I've been out of school for too long) kinda expensive?

I dunno

1)Sports - I bascially enjoy all sports, but the majors ones are Volleyball, hockey, basketball, baseball.
2)WATCHIN VIDEO REVIEWS !!!!!! (hehe)
3)Working on websites and stuff...new nav comin soon, since I must be a cheap lazy guy and dump the newspro cgi setups for a blogger account.. Geez, I love it and hate it at the same time (read: this was just an act of shameless self promotion)
4) Shamelessly promoting myself *hehe* :D
5) Photoshop is god. Although I must take time to get used to ps6...

[Orangepeel]

Nope, not too expensive. You can rent a horse for 20 bucks (Can.) an hour.

Try it sometime, it's a blast with a bunch of freinds!

I'm thinking it may hurt down low? My poor wang :)

I made a teddy bear about 3 years back and sold it at the flee-market for 50$. Hey, I know what your thinking! Don’t knock it until you’ve tried it…LOL! Just getting in touch with my money, I mean, manly side..Cough

Yeah, anyways, I saw that pick with the plants…Not that I’m saying anything here buy asking this, “But now that a certain plant is legal how does this effect the plants of preference in your home land?”

Talk too much? Bah! There is no such thing as talking too much unless you’re into telemarketing…only then would I even think of such a negative commentary. Oh and Cute’n cuddly for me is 100% cotton made blankets with a 230~250-percale thread count. It’s just something to keep in mind next time when you’re looking for the softest fabrics on earth.

As for my own hobbies…

I build computers for friends really cheap when I can. This might be more of an addictive ploy to increase the numbers of lost souls on the Internet? Well, it’s that or I would just keel-over if they got a HP or Gateway.

I make poetry when I can. You’ve read some of my insanity’s gone array. It’s never a dreary moment when it comes to the word dramas.

I also like to draw fine arts when I can; my works are really very talented. It’s too bad I’m spending all of my time posting in forums these days. I guess I’m looking for something to rekindle my aspersions of a thirsting soul?

Finally, a little bit of plain ol' english. Thanks YMaster, you're posts were getting a little too, er, let's say flamboyant? But you're talent for poetry is quite good. I'm sure in the right place it would be appreciated much more :)

I'm impressed! A guy that actually made an attempt at teddy bear making, and making a few bucks at the same time! Kudos. It really is a talent that you have to work at. If you like painting, drawing, and sculpture, you may want to try your hand at soft sculpture. There are some really amazing things you can do with a sewing needle. I've seen some very realistic animals produced by an artist with the last name Foley. I will find the webpage and post it for you to see :)

Ah, you like my plants, eh? Well, there's nothing illegal on my balcony unless there's a law against tomatos I was unaware of! And no, cannabis is not legal here. It can be used for medicinal purposes in patients that have been approved. And it's a long process, I hear. From what I understand they are setting up a farm where they will be growing medicinal grade somewheres in the Prairies.

I've never had the urge to try weed, it seems so disgusting to inhale dried leaves that some person/animal has crawled over, stepped on, or done something else to. YUK!!

Being in the medical profession myself, I don't see why patients shouldn't have something that takes away their pain and suffering. But, use it properly. It's a drug, no different than any other Narcotic. Treat it as such :) Ok, blabbering again...

You do drawings too? Very talented! I would ask you to post some, but only on the condition that I know that they are tasteful, since your poetry is so, erm, let's say, "colourful". :D

I still have to post a pic of my bear, he's a little camera shy, I think...

I don't have much we can look at. The better stuff I can't show off in here. I'm sure you all can guess why? ;)
