Too Many Hobbies? What else do u guys collect?

[Rock&Roll Ninja]

I have a motorcycle, and a computer, and a CD collection, and credit card bills. Credit Card bills are the primary reason I don't have a New Mazda MX-5 and font projector 7.2 HT rig.

I'd find out who shrunk your TV and have words with them!! I mean the rest of your setup must make fun of the TV all day and all night. It can't be good for the TV's self-esteem .

Zumbo... love the pics... nice house! What kinda speakers are those?

Thanks. The house is old and needs alot of work. It's big, and on the water though. If we ever get finished buying cars, motorcycles, and audio, we might work on the house and furniture.

Maybe one of these days I'll get out of my funk and get a real job and buy a house... stranger things have happened. My plan would be to make a dedicated HT room of course right. At least I have a girl friend that loves HT almost as much as I do. She talked me into buying our new Sony HDTV... I was hesitant to spend that much right now... so at least i have support for my ailment right!!!

Theres a parts list in that post. I built it up piece by piece.


Its small because I hop around and big bikes are harder to manuver(typo).

All I collect now is wine. Got a '94 Lafite and a couple of Italians, a '05 Opus One, a few bottles of Stags Leap (Fay, SLV), couple of Cakebreads, a few mid 90's Silver Oaks (before they started to suck), a '95 Far Neiente...pretty modest at this point. We've been slowly eating though the "good stuff" as special occasions come about. I've also been building up my music and DVD collection recently (can anyone say business expense?).

 

[Matt34]

As far as collections go. Really don't have none, ok, I have around 2 dozen knives from regular pocket knives from, cold steel, S&W,sypderco, to a handmade Gruken(sp?) knife I got in Kosovo and an Iraqi Bayonet. I also have 2 handcrafted walking canes I bought in Poland, one hides a 2ft foot blade while the other has a switch on the handle the pops a 3" dagger out the bottom of it.

I would like to expand my firearm collection but that seems to be going at a very slow rate, though I did pick up a Springfield XD 45 ACP(can we say 13 in the mag, one in the pipe ) in OD green with a 6x surefire light/laser attachment at a gunshow last week.

Edit: Hey rjbudz, yeah I got the 45 not the 40 like I said in the PM. Was thinking of my Tauras PT100 for some reason.

That makes more sense. How do you like the surefire?

Tom,

I "gave up" drinking 7 years ago, this week. My last bottle? A 1982 Latour. What a way to go out.

 

[Tomorrow]

Motorcycles:
'99 Kawasaki ZRX1100: Muzzy Stainless Race Megaphone exhaust, Dynojet Stage 3 jet-kit, ZX11 cams, K&N filters, and Metzler Sportec M-C1's.

'01 Honda CR250: Pro Circuit pipe & shorty silencer, Factory Connection suspension, Boyesen Power Valve Cover, V-Force reed-valve system, Renthal bars & sprockets, D.I.D x-ring chain, and jetted for climate.

'03 Honda VTX1800:Honda leather studded saddle bags, Honda windshield, Honda deluxe backrest, Kuryakin grips, and Kuryakin pasanger floorboards.

Zumbo,

Do you remember Rob Carpenter? He raced primarily here in the northwest...made it to the top of the roadracing heap, then wiped out at P.I.R. and lost an arm. He's a member of Audioholics, but I understand doesn't visit much, anymore. (We drive away some good'uns, I guess.) He loaded up on Wilson speakers.

It's a real nice piece. Doesn't throw the balance of the gun off at all and easy to get on and off. I just need to get a holster that accepts it.

how about...

...these...

p.s. obviously photography is NOT one of my hobbies...
