I enjoy building Gundam models. I also play Magic the gathering.
I wish I had time for models, especially Gundam models.
I miss riding during the winter months; I can bundle up and handle the cold just fine, but the bike doesn't shift or brake well below freezing and it's often too wet and messy for riding. Part of why I want to buy a house is so I can set up a nice stationary bike for riding while watching the idiot box (maybe gaming too if I can handle a controller and not fall off the bike), and a dedicated ball gag and zipper mask room of course.
Oh, another hobby of mine is reading. It's mostly Stephen King, Frank Herbert (and his son's meh Dune stuff), and Tolkien books, but I also read a couple different magazines and various flavor of the month books that look good but usually disappoint.
I asked for an indoor trainer thing for Christmas. Hopefully I'll get it and I can set it up in our basement during the winter months so I'm not so sluggish in the spring.
I've been trying to pick up reading again too. Started reading Sagan's Cosmos. But then picked up a book called "10 myths about evolution". Saw it referenced in an article I read, and sounded interesting. Basically it straightens out the main misconceptions of evolution.
I am a HUGE Tolkien fan. I've started reading The Silmarillion at least 3 times, and have never made it all the way through.
What do you think of the LOTR and Hobbit movies? I was happy to see that world come to life, but was not real happy with the liberties Jackson took with making the stories a little different.
mmm DSM tasty. Cars are my other hobby as well. I have a fully built '96 Eagle Talon TSI /Mitubishi Eclipse GSX (turbo, all wheel drive) that i spent a few years building (15 months just to build motor in my garage ). So in my book you need to get another Mitsu! Also i'm into older cars. My new project is a '72 Plymouth Gran Fury. I'm really feeling the last of era muscle cars. Here's a couple pics of both cars.

Beautiful cars man. I have owned a few 1g DSMs. My favorite was a Talon TSi AWD. It was beat to hell on the outside, but ran like a champ. Sold it for a measly $1,500 and regretted it instantly.
Have you dyno'd your DSM?
