Re: Any other hobbies compete for your pipe/tobacco dollars?

I have a couple hobbies a very large cigar collection, a fully stocked wood shop, model trains LGB and HO scale, and my 58 MGA Roadster which was bought in 1997 that me and the wife did a complete frame off restoration. With pipes and tobacco that pretty much takes up my hobby money.

They're not, hobbies but I bought a fixer upper last year, and I'm getting married next September, so between those 2 things there's not a lot of extra cash lying around.

Wait, I think I have it! "I didn't even know he was sick" is what people say when they heard someone has died.

Death...marriage... marriage...death... ok, I thought I had some distinction but never mind....

Re: Any other hobbies compete for your pipe/tobacco dollars?

DJ stuff. Buying vinyl is killer. $5-$12 per record (which typically would have 1-2 songs with remix(es), a capella, and/or an instrumental version on it). Recently, I've switched over to digital, but I needed to buy a laptop and the hardware to interface the laptop w/ my turntables. Downloading music is so much more convenient and cheaper, but I still like to dig through crates for rare gems, especially jazz records.

Also, computer stuff, and climbing gear (not so much these days though), and food. Delicious food.

Well, I just started smoking pipes (but been smoking cigars for a while). Mountain bikes and photography. Man, those Canon L lenses are $$$.

Re: Any other hobbies compete for your pipe/tobacco dollars?

I collect children as a hobby, dmkerr. Larger than rare stamps and less fragile than exotic butterflies, children collecting is nonetheless a challenging, irritating and costly hobby that takes resources from funner things with greater rewards for the old and selfish. In fact, it looks like I get a new-to-me (mostly grown-up) one as early as next week. The mind boggles.

There's the moped, which is a great pastime posing as an economical means of travel. And coffee. I pour money into coffee (and ways for roasting coffee) so I can pour the coffee into me, my family and friends.

I'm adding one more member to the pack and will post a pic when I get back from Nashville on Friday
I know this looks like a gangsta rap CD cover (ala dogs shooting pool) but what can I say? What up Dog?

That's a great shot of the dogs.

Cheers,

I've got three teens I'd like to add to your collection. They come with electric guitars, drum sets and attitudes at no extra charge. They don't smoke pipes, drink coffee or ride motorcycles so they won't be digging into your various stashes. 10 cents apiece or all 3 for a quarter. They all have cell phones; tell 'em to call me if they ever miss me, or they can just email me.

Re: Any other hobbies compete for your pipe/tobacco dollars?

You can make pipes AND you own German Shepherds??? Did I ever mention that I wanted to be you?

For some reason, I always feel most like myself when I'm pretending to be someone else.
