    Amateur woodworking

    Used to surf, but I moved to Dallas. :(

    Woodworking. I'm in the process of moving my equipment to the basement. I just bought an older Craftsman table saw and refurbishing it.
    I like pistols & shotguns, too. I suck with a rifle.

    drinking hoppy beers
    college football (especially the Hawkeyes)
    riding my mountain bike
    riding atvs - can't beat some of the scenery.

    Of course, since Jr Egghead came along, he's been top priority so most of these (except beer) have been put on hold for a little while.

    Germans have some of the best words. My new favorite is kummerspeck, which means "excess weight gained from emotional overeating" but literally translates as "grief bacon."
