So what are YOUR other hobbies? :)
Mauzy:
Ive been into analog audio for a while. Nothing too fancy turntable wise (whatever the $120 Sony is at Best Buy) but Im slowing building my collection of the 70s and 80s greatest bands. I have everything RUSH put out on LP plus 30 or so others mixed in.
Now Ive started looking at analog video. I found a Mitsubishi M-7010 LaserDisc player at a garage sale for 5 bucks with Pink Floyd's "The Wall" and some other movie. The player needs a gear alignment, but it just seems to me like a neat thing to have for 5 bucks.
*waits for the analog flaming*

Paper modeling (card modeling). I thought this was kinda ghey until I tried it. It's really addicting! The amazing thing is that all the good models are freely available for download off the internet. My favorite site is the Yamaha site:

Yep, you too can make that model. Just print it out, cut apart, and glue together.

Mead suggests other hobbies. Fanatasy, role playing, SCA. Maybe not. Maybe you're an egiptian historian. Just wondering.

I thought collecting razors was the most original hobby I'd heard of until I read this one.
That's actually really cool looking. It appeals to the part of me that makes interested in model building, RC cars, model trains; I suppose if I reached far enough it's what appeals to me about my career in architectures. I like to examine things and situations in microcosm.
My other hobbies? Well actually since I built my mame cab, I've been kind of out of this hobby.
The places where my money gets sunk into frivolous wastes of time are:
Downhill Skiing - I teach at the local hill to supplement the cost
RC Car racing
3d modelling
And as above, these have all been preceeded by the intersts of my two year old. I find myself playing with brio trains, soccer balls, and I'm thinking of starting the "Adult Little Tykes" basketball league.

I'm a bowler... currently in a Monday night league. My team did pretty well last season, ended up taking 3rd (out of 24 teams).
Next year when we buy a house (with a 3 car garage), I'm going to buy an old car and start autocross racing. Something I've been wanting to do for a lonnnng time now.
