I love football (go Cowboys), collect wizard figurines, collect old decks of cards, spending time on this new laptop, cribbage, working on old cars.

What do I do besides magic??? hmm..... well I am a die hard Star Trek fan as well as a budding interest in astronomy. I also enjoy reading (Stephen King novels really rock IMHO) and also enjoy collecting useless pieces of **** (according to EX-girlfriends) and also last but not least, I enjoy surfin’ da’ "net".

I'll follow Mike's tack a bit...I'm a huge Star Wars fan, collecting all things SW, customizing my own figures, and I even still play Deciphers CCG.



My astronomy interest have blossomed to the point where I have sold my first scope in lieu of getting something BIGGER!



And, of course, anyone who wants all these toys has to make 'thinking up creative new ways to romance the wife' his No. 1 hobby. (I think I'll get points just for putting that in here.)

I am afraid that I must confess to being a rather avid collector of miniature diecast models,cars and aircraft!

This was a ’habit’ born in the days of WW2 but has now included B52, B2 and F16.....how time flies!!

Problem is...where on earth do you put them???

Wow, after reading all the above posts, I suddenly realize what a dull life I have!

I'm a professional magician and lecturer(and write a monthly column, Showtime, for the Linking Ring magazines, as well as columns for Visions and a number of other e-zines),write a weekly newspaper column, and drink really, REALLY good beer (when it can be found -- micro-breweries mainly).

Other than that, I stand in awe of the rest of you.

Maybe I should get out more!

I iz a spel-chekkar fer "Hookt on Fonix".

(Kidding...had to make sure you have job-security, Mya!!!!)

Next to my wife and children, I’d have to say my biggest interest will always lie in magic. I love music, and am an ex-DJ. I also have a deep interest in pyrotechnics. Being a pyrotechnician helps a lot in my stage shows, but my wife hates the thought of fuses hanging in her kitchen!

I also do taxidermy in my spare time, but lately have had no spare time to use.

OH!!!! Almost forgot!!!! My other love is FOOD!!! I own a restaurant, which makes for the perfect opportunity to perform my magic. I perform there weekly, as well as other establishments.

Who said magicians are strange?

Benji,



What kind of restaurant?



Mike,

"also enjoy collecting useless pieces of **** (according to EX-girlfriends)"



And getting rid of them, hence, the "EX"

Thank’s for noticing Benji.



I know I have job security here,

I know too many of your secrets to

be replaced.











Mya

Wow! What do I do besides magic?



I design websites. I do video production. I take still digital photos. I occasionally do things to earn money (gasp!). I’m working toward owning an island and starting my own country, and I dream of one day making a few dollars with magic.....



I think that just about covers it.

Karate (sometimes), reading, research on the paranormal and ghosts (trying to write a book about haunted Gothenburg, more chance of winning the lottery ).



Just started trying to write kids books.



Searching for the elusive female that lets her man get lost in magic.

If you're ever near Georgia, let me know. Give ya a free meal. (If you show me some magic!!!)

Hey, We are out here,

you just have to look in the right places!



It may help you to know most women are thinking the same thing.

"Oh, if only I could find the perfect man!"

:lol:



Before you find him/her you need to make your own self ready.



Happy hunting!







Mya

I suppose that I must admit that I found one of those very understanding ladies!......she must be as she has put up with both magic and me for the last 46 years!!

I love Baseball.



I also juggle, work with puppets, draw caricatures.



I like riddles and puzzles.



Like to fish and hike.



Oh yeah...I like to breath!!!

I'm a student of law and economics, so guess what! I spend most of my time with my respective books. BUT, next wednesday, after another one of these exams, I'm gonna intensify my magic again.

Besides I've been playing the piano all my life, I juggle, love sports and girls and well, actually, I enjoy learning languages, law , etc...



Have a nice life,



Chris
