    Default Hobbies...

    as much as I love my hobbies, I actually hate them. I basically have four hobbies: bowling, golf, softball, and racing. the problem with all of these hobbies is that they are so damn expensive!!! well, I mean, they don't have to be expensive. but then again, I don't compete in things im not good at and/or cant win.

    my biggest complaint with bowling is all the new balls that come out!!! there are soooo many I would LOVE to have and/or try but I just cant afford them!!!


    1st world problems. lol

    True. but at my age, you are satisfied with what you have already. It's enough just looking at them and relating casually to them. Even if I truly had opportunity to try them all, I could not handle it. So I keep a safe distance.

    (are we talking about bowling balls or women here? I forget...)


    (Cmon. Ya know it true. Admit it)
    I live by three simples rules:

    1. Don't ever ask about my business
    2. Never discuss business at the table
    3. Don't ever side with anyone against the family

    To answer the question.

    Road cycling and spinning

    bowling (of course)

    golf (at least the driving range. no time for a full nine holes. Maybe this year I will make time).

    Roller Disco. (no they don't play disco any more, but you get the idea. ....Okay, they do play some disco on oldies night and I get to relive my past youth). cliche, I know, but those were the happiest days of my youth

    Ich lerne Deutsce. (my wife is studying Spanish

    I enjoy reading "kick butt fiction" ( I love the Jack Reacher Series).

    Watching The Vikings TV series. (In my next life I plan to come back Ragnar Lothbrok)

    Not the mention the classic pina coladas and getting caught in the rain.

    so what your saying is that your 3 ball roller is filled and the balls give you good scores so why look for another one? In to which id reply im still young and can handle trying any balls that i have the opportunity to and if i find one a like i can always buy a bigger bag
