What other obsessions do you have?

Needless to say, my family is the most rewarding obsession to me and everything else takes a back seat to it.

With that out of the way, I always need to be involved with art and design in some form. Whether it is contemplating/sketching ideas for an art piece or drawing views when space planning to add a piece of furniture to the home. One obsession in particular that has come out of this predisposition is my attraction to lighting fixtures, mostly floorstanders. The fixtures of interest to me have been designed by architects dabbling in industrial product development. These styles are certainly not for everyone, but I feel their sculptural qualities are entertaining.

My young family demands most of my time and energy. The art projects and my industrial design interests can wait, while the music plays.

Fine Wine - 100 cases in long term storage.

Cuban Cigars, fine dining, gourmet experiments.

Raising kids - 2 little girls under 3 yr. Takes all the time away from any other obesession for the moment.

Golf and hoping my wife will have another glass of wine.

Uppermidfi & Gilas - since you guys were the first to ask, (and you're right Uppermidfi, a good following just from Audiogonners would be a great place to start!), email me, and I can find out about sending a sample bottle to you each "on the house", and if you like it, you can spread the word... :-) We are about 100 miles from Margaret River Gilas, our area is the Ferguson Valley.
