-Airsoft-Military Simulation Role Playing
-Survivalism
-Hunting
-Fishing
-Trapping
-Camping
-Hiking
-Biking
-Firearms
-Self defense
-Long walks
-Rock climbing
-Machine work
-ATVs
-Knives
-Infowars
-Big dogs

*SIGH* Really wish I could go Shooting right about now...

If you mention the rave, Dylan gets to practice the first three things on his list.

Anyway, this is an update of my hobbies to include the occasional roleplaying session. Also, photography. As anyone who has seen my flickr account will attest, I spend most of my camera time engaged in emergency vehicle stalking. *laughs*

And thus by mentioning it, Dissension becomes an example to us all of what happens when you do.

photography,
play video games,
post stuffs on DA,
browse various forums,
go for nice long walks away from town,
watch sunsets,
3D modeling,
some very rare instances where I'll program something (that used to be more common, I've forgotten allot of it),
lolTroll people on DA, that is: using my in-depth knowledge of trolling (>.>... <.<...) to incite laughter instead of flames,
carve walking sticks,
draw some rapid concept sketches when I actually have time for it,
edit my photos to help bring out the true colors and lighting conditions of what I was photographing... not something I've perfected yet, but I'm working on it,
spend time with family,
be helpful in general,
archery, not shooting animals, I don't really like unnecessary killing... but I do enjoy target practice and competitive archery and... almost everything about Bows XD, given the choice between a bow & arrow collection, and a collection of any other sort, I'd go with the bows.

In no particular order,
- Web surfing
- Video games (as many as possible!)
- Reading ; Terry Pratchett, Ian Flemming and a few other eclectic selections.
- Martial Arts (Sport Karate/Kickboxing)
- Sailing, or more accurately capsizing, those performance dingies tip over easy.
Finally when I find the time or motivation some miscellaneous software development is usually fun.
May you lead an interesting life.

i may be a genre nazi, but anyone who knows the first thing about electronic music would understand my cynicism over 'techno', let alone 'hardcore techno'.
the first name you drop better be spiral tribe.

(but besides that I don't have very much techno; I'm more into the rotterdam thing. And surprisingly the billion downtempo/ambient/chillout/whatever genres)

For the most part these days when I'm not working it's either WoW (up to 5 80's at last count), Xbox360 or watching movies during the week.

During the weekend it can anything from...
-Camping
-Biking
-Kayaking
-Hanging out with friends
-Going to various local sporting events
-Various D&D, Shadow Run and White Wolf with friends

I haven't been much of a writer since I left the news biz... though it is something I want to start getting back in to but on an online setting.
Also need to delve back into martial arts... (from least to most experience)
-Shoot style wrestling
-Fencing
-Tae Kwon Do
-Looking to get in to Aikido in the near future having just found a school here.

Well what can i say;
Martial Arts - Taekwondo
The Drawn Arts - Mechanical and Landscape
Cad and Revit
Camping
Bike Riding
Academic Study
Camping
Paint Ball
Role Playing - Dark Heresy
And walking
It is better to apply time to a broad range of theories, than to regards all others disciplines as inconsequential.
