We all enjoy taking part in this long lost manly art, but im guessing we all have other things that we love to do. Im anxious to see how this turns out, what with the great demographics we have on B&B. Anyhow, here are mine
Working out. Our Campus recently opened a new 3 story gym and I love going there to train (there is also basically anything you could ever want there as far as sports is concerned. Aside from feeling good, im also trying to build up the strength to peform feats of strength, such as wrench bending.
I love hanging out with my friends and being social. Whether its going to a club or just going over to someone's house, being out and about it the greatest feeling for me.
I also love shooting my air guns. People who have firearms my scoff at it, but I think that just shooting cans with my pellet gun is awesome. These things are nothing like those airsoft guns that shoot those plastic balls. These guns are much more powerful.

I like vintage gaming (Atari 2600/7800, Nintendo Entertainment System), reading science fiction, cooking, learning foreign languages, listening to tech podcasts like Windows Weekly, Maximum PC No BS podcast, and Tech News Today (I keep some speakers in the bathroom that I connect my iRiver mp3 player to so I can listen while shaving), and watching films.

Hunter, Mathews M6 (that is a 2011 model but I have the 2009 model which is the same minus the wafflemaker)
No,I do not believe in speed. I shoot 560gr arrows. I do not believe in shooting fishing pole tips with fletchings.

Guess I could add freediving too. When I am in shape I can dive to 60feet and shoot fish, and my best static time is 3min, 25sec.

I have an addictive personality so adding shaving into the mix was just another piece to my disorder :w00t:

I like to build guns, I am just finishing off some mil-surp caliber changes and a full custom deer rifle built from a odd length Mauser action.
I like to shoot said guns, at targets or live animals.
I like to fresh water fish, I just recently picked up a bunch of new lures to try out for the new season.
Now I am going to pick up pipe smoking, although it may end up replacing my hated ciggarettes.

Lessee:
There's my rock band from college: I'm the bassist/sometimes guitarist/lead vocalist, and I write many of our songs. Now that we're all in the same city again, we've started that back up.
I love to play and watch tennis. I played competitively in high school, but the intervening college and grad school years made me too busy. I'm now getting back into it.
motorcycling, vintage stereo equipment, collecting classic rock & jazz albums, photography...

Close, so very close...
It's a Model A thats been shortened by 18" and chopped. The engine is an SBC from a late 60's Camaro with dual Ford/Holley 94 carbs VERY similar to the stromberg units. And the engine is painted Detroit Diesel alpine green.
Here is the before, ignore the date on there its wrong - its a 1930.

Very cool set up:thumbup1: I always love learing something new about cars though pre-60s is a particularly weak area for me, and lates 70s-mid 80's is shakey too due to the boring nature of that era.
Someday I would like to build a T bucket, find 348 or 409 Chevy for it, put a 3x2 on top.

I love reading about all of the interesting stuff everyone is in to. Here are mine:
Cycling, road and Raleigh 3 speeds
Working out in general. I have to do it to stay sane.
Western shirts, the older the better
Sports of all types on all levels, but especially high school basketball here in Indiana
Mel Brooks films
Researching things, anything really. I get interested in something and want to find out everything I can about it then after it runs its course I move on to the next thing. Right now it is shaving, but just a few weeks ago it was old-timey bluegrass music.

Drinking beer and whiskey, ought to get into homebrewing one of these days
Reading books (sci-fi, fantasy, history, philosophy, classic literature, whatever happens to strike my fancy)
Thinking (this might take up more time than any other hobby...)
Playing bass
Listening to music (of all sorts; right now I'm exploring the vast array of music from all over Africa)
The occasional video/computer games (which is to say, I'll get the itch, and play a lot for a few days or weeks, and then let them gather dust for a while)
Riding my bike
Frequenting museums and gallery shows (good art, interesting people and free booze at show openings!)
Being outside, often acting like I'm still 12 years old (for instance I rediscovered how awesome swings are a few years ago)
Exploring (when I first came here for school I think I spent more time aimlessly wandering around the city than I did on homework)

Pyrotechnics - I'm licensed in a couple of states and federally. I'm on the Board of the Pyrotechnics Guild International. I build shells, rockets, ground displays and compete nationally. This is a hobby that takes all my time recently (yes... even more than shaving... I post more on the pyrotechnics lists than here... figure that one out)
Cycling (not any more... getting too damned old). Have ridden across the US North to South, the Rockies, and a couple of states.
Shooting pistols and rifles. Compete occasionally but prefer to just go out and play.
Good wines and Scotch
Scuba diving (not any more... no water around here so I have set it aside) - certified with four agencies and have made bubbles around the world. Once discovered a sunken German (WWII) submarine. Saw a mermaid in Cypress. ;-}

I still collect baseball cards. I'm the guy who's Mom didn't throw out all those old baseball cards. Quote of the Day (Babe Ruth, on baseball “The Only Real Game in the World”) I happen to be in total agreement.... Not by any means to demean other sports, as I do enjoy other sports, but rather just my personal feelings on baseball....

Seeing as I am retired and now 70, my interests have somewhat waned in things I used to do. I still enjoy target shooting and do play poker about twice a month though.

Wow. I'm not sure if I want to admit to all of these:
Hunting
Motorcycle riding
Mountain biking
Bareform running
Weight training
Taekwondo
Flying(not an actual hobby, but am working on instrument rating now)
Dating my wife
Being awesome for my kids
Volunteer at church
For a while there I collected toy motorcycles(I know, I know), collected items for a shrine in honor of Brett Favre, and now have settled with the Packers
stuff I have now.
Working on my Armageddon/zombie apocalypse bug out equipment
A brief stint with fountain pens
Right now I'm collecting vintage tie bars/clasps that get worn weekly
Loose tea/cast iron teapot......trust me, it can be manly.
I have an affinity for fine watches, but as a student I don't have the finances for it. I've had to settle with the 10yr anniversary present my wife gave me 5
years ago....a stainless Brietling Super Ocean Chronograph.
I'm still wanting to get a recurve bow to get into primitive archery
I collect/shoot guns......only have about 12 right now from a Ruger Mark II, Vaquero.45, LCP .380 to a Mossberg pump, Yugoslavian Ak-47, SKS and other assorted goodies.....with enough ammo to stop a company of ......whatever marching down my street.

Hope you like pics......
I make things, cars, household stuff, outdoor things. Whatever, I just like to create.
Current car project

I like to create something from nothing or re-purpose something into a new item. Plus I have a ton of collections and hobbies, home theater, electronics and computers are another big thing for me. I have an addictive personality so adding shaving into the mix was just another piece to my disorder :w00t:
What kind of crazy intake/carb setup you got there?

This. Bringing a 50 yr old trike back to life and giving it to my kids to play with. Nothing more gratifying than seeing that smile.
