Your Best Hobbies (other than Audio)


It would be interesting to know what other things interest the audiophiles who are obviously so passionate about hi fi and Audiogon. I am similarly obsessively interested in cars and motorcycles. What are your interests?

Mine is Designer clothes and assessories- Suits, Knits, Trousers, Jackets (leather), ties, sunglasses, bags, shoes etc. All really top names. Georgio Armani is my favourite. I lean towards the Emporio Armani line because it has more casual and modern look. Versace is another extreme I go to. Calvin Klein, Mondo De Marco, Kenneth Cole assessories and more. I probably have 25 suits, 400+ shirts, 400+ ties, 40+ pair of shoes, 50+ pair of sunglasses, and tons of cool looking knits.( not to brag but some time I wonder is this a hobby or manic obsession?) I probably have more invested in my ( and my wife's ) cloths than the Stereo system. About 100K vs 50 K( 2 channel plus Home theater). Automobiles is my next hobby. Mostly read about , I mean. Currently I have Lexus LX-450 SUV for family ( 2 daughters) and Mercedes SLK for my self. I wish I could swap cars as often as cloths..... Next year I may swap my SLK for a Boxter.
I have this funny hobby that I recently developed. I like to sit down ( doesn't matter where, infront of TV, in my back yard, on a swing) and EAT SUNFLOWER SEEDS! I could go on for hours staring and chewing in to oblivion, and enjoying every minute of it. Always looking forward to my 'SESSIONS'. Have the best seeds in stock.If am out I panic, go late in the night, shop and be ready the next day. A good alternative to relax almost turned in to a obsessive hobby!!
Now that's great idea. It is about time sunflower seeds move upscale!! By the way I am trying different brand this weekend!
