Photography is probably my next one after aquariums but recently I've been getting pretty hard into RC helicopters and trucks. I highly recommend everyone go buy a decent starter RC truck from a hobby store, like the Traxxas Stampede 1:10 scale electric. Only $200 and tonnes of fun, 100% submersible so snow or ran still works great.

Target shooting, R/C, and lately exploring the world of pyrotechnics and sugar rockets.

< -- Jealous! I bet your collection is great I just started playing during Zendikar block my brother taught me and I'm really digging it although apparantly a lot of people don't like some of the new rules and quit playing because of them..but that's fair I quit WoW because of stupid expansions

<--- Denny I'm a lady haha but i'm not sure your GF would enjoy any of my hobbies we also build lots of computers and drink copious amounts of beer .... after thinking of all these things I think i need to cut down hobbies...no wonder I never have time for anything...maybe I should just quit working that would free up some time =)

Hmmm,

In no particular order:
Fish Tank
Mtn. Biking - Try to take at least one trip a year
I'm a car guy - I try to make at least one show in the US a year.
Home Theater - This one is pretty tame, I don't go for the high-end stuff.
And like others - Beer Drinking...lol

Magic... I just pulled out the 20K cards I have. Time to Ebay those. Haven't played in far too long. I have from Tempest (and a few of the smaller sets prior to that) through to Urza's. It was about that time that the rules started changing up too much. My friends stopped playing, and well, you can't exactly play alone now can you!

As for WoW... LOL, I play that one BC expansion was good, Wrath was a bit silly (too bad, good story line, and zones) Cata so far (world has been blown up) is looking really nice! Can't wait for tomorrow! Release day

Wow takes up most of mine and my wifes (yep, she plays) time. Living in a small apartment doesn't leave too much room for too many hobbies!

Very true my problem with wow was that I was in a high end raiding guild had all tier 3 epic gear full transcendence then bc came out and got better greens in my first 2 hours of playing than I had in my whole /played time

Moving from BC & knowing no one out here that played it is the reason I stopped. I have no idea what my total count of cards is anymore. I did have it all priced out at one time, but no idea where that database is anymore.
