I like my Jack russel terrier...smooth fox terrier also. They are truly great dogs...personality alot fun. Motorcycles, Boats. Classic autos resoration, and rejuvination of old things. Things that are bygone products that imbarrasse what people buy now. Living near the ocean. Travel.. Bob, |
I love both cooking, and exploring the great restaurants of this region. I work out 6 days a week. Mostly weights, but also walk about 1 3/4 miles during the week(to and from the train station). Gave it up for the winter, as I almost got hit by a car a few times(gets dark too early these days). Can't wait for the days when the sun stays out longer... Was big into taijiquan and jiujitsu, but haven't done it for the past four years(I really should get back to those things). I love to read about Chinese philosophy, especially Taoism. Did try to get deeper into it, but soon discovered it was no different than any other religion. A BIGTIME Philadelphia sports fan. Some would(and do) call us hooligans. Favorite sports are football, hockey, and baseball. Developed a real interest in investing over the past 8 years. Thankfully, I soon realized I am a born contrarian. This has kept me out of the Nasdaq. Thankfully I haven't lost much money during the bloodbath of 2000. Have a real penchant for being the class clown, and comedy is something that I think can perform miracles. Favorite comedians are Rodney Dangerfield and Dom Irrera(like me, another Italian from South Philly). Used to be a car buff, but have lost the time for that over the years. Still lust after many cars. Cars would be my art collection if I ever hit the lotto(too bad I don't play). |
I play hockey and ski in the winter, and golf in the summer. I'm a car guy too, I like to tinker with my '89 Toyota Supra Turbo, and drive my 2001 Acura 3.2 TL Sport way too fast. |
A near complete (and very sloooow) restoration/rebuild/modification/ of a '63 Chevy Deuce. About half way there! Nicely tucked away in the garage for the winter. Maybe next year ('02) I could drive it to CES! My other love (other than my girlfriend) is my pup, an AmStaff named Moxie. (Doing much better BTW Danvetc - presumed Bordatella URI). Also love any and all ethnic foods! Kindest regards to all! |
i love to play acoustic blues on my taylor's(512 and 514) and play softball for actual exercise. peace |
Great thread. I enjoy hikimg in the mountains, taking flyimg lessons, ancient history, chess, shooting pool, and working in my wood shop. There are so many great things to do and learn that you never seem to have time to do them all. |
Paragliding: open, airy, smooth, beautiful, relaxed "floating lounge-chair" pace or aerobatic crescendo (whichever suits me at the time), the pure sound of wind in my lines, the soothing feel of wind on my face, and always exhilarating. |
Albert, I live in Dallas and have seen many photos of downtown, but yours is the coolest. Excellent work, great colour. Riding down the freeways, I love gazing at the skyline. I also paint, and although I've had offers, I can't seem to let any of the paintings go. I play tennis too. |
Eldragon, nice site. Being a fine arts major, and a painter as well, please visit my photographic site: albertporterphoto.com my images are protected by a new technology (I am part of the beta team) please allow about one min. for the free software to load from Alchemedia. Thanks, Albert |
I collect art, mostly primitive and whimsical paintings and some sculpture (not outsider art). I used to collect wine but no longer drink, so now I collect kitchen/cooking stuff. Right now its old Descoware, enamel covered cast iron cookware. Before that it was French advertising bar ware. I also cruise thrift shops for music (which is part of this hobby) and have had a good week so far with almost twenty additions for less than $20.00. I guess that I enjoy hunting for things that I do not have to kill. |

I paint. I picked-up brush about three years ago, sold few paintings, but as anything else, it is cut-throat bussines. Check my web-site: http://home.worldnet.att.net/~dragan_v/index.html Also check short stories on "Lunch with sick salad". |
