Talk about just about anything else that is non-gaming here, but keep it clean

This sounds awesome, and expensive. I didnt know you used to be a billionaire.

Orienteering is damn near free. When we did the Abaco, we each threw in $200 or $300 to get the boat and docking fees and supplies. I had been their previously and am a surprisingly good cartographer, so we got around the cost of a guide. We were only down there two weeks. So really not all that bad fiscially. However thanks to hurricanes most of my knowledge of the area is worthless.

I did a whole lot of my growing up in rural Texas so I am well acquainted with white trash. I know a guy that lives in NH that sits in front of his trailor at the trailor park and lifts weights and drinks cans of coors tall boys shirtless in jeans with his cheap 80s boom box playing Hatebreed yelling lines at the 16 year old girls walking home from school. Hilarious. Ofcourse that really isnt anything you couldnt easily find in Texas aswell.
Honestly though, the rednecks I met in Maine were damn good cooks. They certainly knew how to fry some shrimp.

Outside of gaming, I do the traditional geek activities(read, play pen and paper RPGs and a few boardgames, watch television and movies), but I'm also really into martial arts. I'm in Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu.

I like to draw, sculpt and run also. Thats when I'm not riding my motorcycle, spending time with my daughter, working and playing volleyball on a league.

Outside of games I play guitar and work out (not that it works at all, im still a scrawny little kid, strong, but scrawny). Those are my 2 things. Along with a little cooking. Decided to stop doing track. I couldn't beat my 5min 47sec mile after 2 years of constantly trying to get better which kinda sucks. Oh well.

I go camping when I can. Nothing serious or athletic, but it gets me my dose of Vitamin D.
