I like basketball but play very rarely managed to play on an intramural team this past year at my school. I like to walk/hike and photograph things. Like to work in the yard (I have an acre of land) and love to drive around in cars.

When I was in college I first got really into DDR (and was pretty good at it), then switched to Pump it Up when we got a machine. But now that I've moved here to Seattle I don't do it as much, as the only location close by is about 8 blocks down a 30 degree incline, which is not fun to walk up after destroying my legs. And it's impossible to find parking nearby.

UH.... well lets see, Monday, work....Tuesday, work.....Wednesday, work......Thursday, work....Friday, work.....Saturday, still working.....Sunday, hit every Goodwill in town. Truthfully if I game 5 hours a week I am doing good. I get in a little tv time (2-3 hours a week) and most of my other time is busy with taking care of things that need done. So Sunday I spend most of the day out with the little woman. So I guess I do get out some LOL!

After work, I'm busy with cooking and helping my wife put the kids to bed. I usually like to relax by watching Red Sox/Patriots/Celtics. On weekends, bike riding and home improvement projects get my attention.

Besides playing with my kids I enjoy mt. biking, fishing, making real BBQ and hiking. In fact this past fall I hiked the Grand Canyon, might be the coolest thing I've ever done.

Sorry Octopod, I only know of caves in the southeast and some out west. And after a quick round of chats, no one I can reach knows of any in Massachusetts.

That is what I have been told by others also. Sucks. I dont want to get into it bad enough to fly around to other places to do it. Mostly because I could not afford to do so heh.

Lost, what kind of discs are you looking for? I have an assload that could be gotten rid of, mostly drivers from Discraft, Innova and Gateway. Just lemme know what you're looking for and I will peer through my collection.
