What do you do when you're not playing video games (besides working ) ? I'm into magic. I already did a couple of small shows. I always liked magic, not just to try and figure it out but I loved being amazed at things that shouldn't be able to happen.

I'm big into a ton of sports and outdoors stuff. I've got a regular pick-up basketball game, play a lot of touch football, was on an intramural softball team last year, and play golf in the summer whenever I get the chance. I also do a lot of deer and pheasent hunting and target/skeet shooting.

I play guitar, pool, poker, sports, and I like trying new varieties of beer. We have a local shop that sells all kind of rare beer, crazy imports, etc.. You can just buy a six pack and hang out there and eat something.. VERY NICE!! Oh and of course I love watching movies, and reading select books.

Photography.

Used to really enjoy woodworking, especially lathe work, but I haven't been able to make time for that since having kids.

I take it, pron downloading is not a hobby? lol

Let's see, movies, the above mentioned topic (if it's valid), FFXI is what I consider a hobby (at 414 real life days of playing), some sports. Mostly it's comp stuff.

I did this last year with a bunch of guys, but I can't ever get a regular game together anymore. Probably because most of the people I played with were pretty terrible and they got sick of seeing either this one guy or I winning almost every week. How am I supposed to fund the heavy drinking inherient to college without winning beer money off of horrible poker players? Work? **** that noise.

Well, I like to read and get outside whenever I have the time. During the warm months, I play tennis and basketball at least once or twice a week, and when it gets colder, we have a touch football game every other Sunday. One other thing that people tend to think is weird-

Arm-wrestling. I have no idea why, but I got really into this six or seven years ago. My father and uncles were always into working out (even though they're more into cardio now that they're older), so that rubbed off on me. The only thing was, I didn't like the chest exercises nearly as much as the arm ones...so while I still do a complete upper body workout, I always do more on the arms. Always have. Not sure why... But I love to arm-wrestle in some small amateur tournaments and stuff, nothing serious. I never win, anyway.

I have placed as high as third at a tournament they had at a bar in New Haven earlier this year, though. I've seen a lot of the same guys over the past few years, so I have a better idea of where I need to be to compete. And the dude I beat for third was someone I lost to last year.
