--what are your hobbies? I enjoy model railroading. I have had layouts in the past and I am ready to start a new one. Joe

I really don't have a hobby, but, I have acommitment to save animals. It cost more and takes more time than most hobbies,but, I remember animals I have saved in the past and the circumstances, and that is more rewarding to me than remembering when and where someone hit a Home run.Ed Naylor Steel Guitar Works.

What with music, work and grandkids, and MAMA, I have little time for anything else.

Harley Davidson Restoration. Literary Studies and Pursuits. Women, and mutually beneficial interaction with such. Money. Being around people that aren't mean. The Causes, Battles, and Literature of the Civil War. Current Politics. Tormenting the Cruel. Memory enhancement. Did I mention Money?

I've never considered music a "hobby".
Oh, maybe when I was five or six...

For the last 10 years, as a high school vo-tech teacher, I've been busy with writing lesson plans, teaching, phone calls, parent conferences, staff meetings, advisory committee meetings, web site data entry, grading papers, requisitions, progress reports, curriculum research, and attending college for mandantory credits. No time to play out anymore.

But then, I have 2 months off during the summer to practice chops on keyboard, bass, guitar, PSG, to record some tracks. By the time I get my chops back, it's time for the school year again.

Now, I try to squeeze in a half hour per day, 2 hours on weekends, practicing PSG, chord melody, riffs, grips, pick blocking, trying copedent changes, add knee levers, etc. My goal is to be good enough someday to play in church, maybe in a few more years. Guess what my hobby is.

Years ago I was in the Auto business and we build a few 'Custom" cars.A 1960 T-Bird converted to a "Ranchero", A 55 Safarie Pontiac to a "El Camino". My last Custom in 1982 was a 1971 4 dr Fleetwood Cad We cut out 31" and made a Coupe.A couple years ago it was still in a Junkyard in Nashville. I still regret "Junking" the 59 Imperial Conv.,And regret not buying the 1952 MUNTZ TV JET for $200 in 1961. ED

Joe, you and I have similar interests. I collect old toy trains and also have an operating layout. I haven't run the trains in years and it would probably take at least a week to get it in shape again. I'd have to clean up the basement, clear a lot of boxes off the layout, grease and lube all the engines, etc.

If "Literary Studies and Pursuits," is a fancy way of saying, "READING," then count me in. Also, collecting and restoring antique pocket watches----or, as the more eloquent would say, "horology."[This message was edited by Stephen Gambrell on 08 January 2005 at 02:10 PM.]
