Don't I know it :wink: Why, back when I was their age, I had to play Prince of Persia barefoot in the snow, uphill both ways! We played Frogger in black and white (or black and orange, on my mom's monitor...), and we liked it.

That early on the list??!!! :lol:

I'm not entirely sure I should admit to some of mine.....

Gardening would def have to be first, though unfortunately since I moved, I don't have a garden of my own. :cry: But then before I moved I was so often working all daylight hrs that it was getting abit out of control anyhow.

Being outside in general, wandering about in quiet places with lots of trees.

.....and at this point, I think I might just stop.

Oh, I v. much like reading books when I find something I want to read, that one’s OK.

Offroading, like this
Hanging out with friends
Drive my car
Reading books
Watch movies
Computers
Music
+++
I used to play Oblivion, then I took an arrow in the knee.

A viking is just a horny pirate.

Oldest game I actually remember playing.......

Escape From Castle Wolfeinstein

My hobby now is trying to configure DosBox to run all these old games I still have. I even found the Arena on floppy!

Oldest game I remember playing was Super Mario Brothers (SMB/Duck Hunt bundle cartridge) on the NES- my grandma got it for me one Christmas while I was still but a wee lad of 58.

It's the original Space Invaders (stand-up arcade) for me.
First console game was either Combat on the 2600 or Parsec on a friend's TI/99. First computer game that I owned was Gorf for the Vic 20.

Jeff, ever play Nukewar or Hunter Killer on the C64? Fantastic.

I played Pong on a home made black box. The control knobs were built into the box. My Uncle made it. We did eventually get an Atari, when they came out. I have no idea when. The C64 came out at the same time I went into the Army, so I neve got one. I did play a few times on a friends, when on leave. I have played alot of Military Simulators though.

Hazmat (Hazardous Marterial) control. To keep the Final Drive Fluids from dripping on the concrete, and the rain washing it into the earth. They are placed under where the drain plugs are, in case of drips.

Hobbies?
Hobbies...
Well...

I do kendo (Japanese Art of the Sword, essentially).
Along with kendo is Tae Kwon Do.
I play the Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, and do a little piano.
I took a class in archery, and I do that quite a bit, along with throwing knives and ninja stars (I'm cool like that).

Doodling. I do a lot of doodling...

That's 'bout it.
I missed it here.

Oh, see? Now you're going to have to post some of your doodles. I'm sorry, but those are the rules of the forum; no one can leave until they post a few doodles.

Is that a... a really fat midget horse holding a teddy bear and a surf board? Whatever it is, it's pretty cool- but mods can't leave, period.

I had noticed your quote before, I actually pref Serenity, but then I never saw Firefly till after Serenity and Serenity has more visual style. My favourite would have to be the "Shiny. Let's be bad guys!" moment!! :lol:

I could go on for hours about how amazing the show is. I preferred the show,if only cuz I can pretend alan tudyk is still alive. My favorite line (other than my sig)was in the show. Jaine didn't want to help inara's fellow,uh "colleagues" so mal said to him "they're [&@%!]",Jaine cocks Vera and says he's in.Edit:How can you not love the episode where mal gets captured by the Russian guy?

My gf loves Buffy, so I've had to put up with everything from Season Four of Angel to Greg the Bunny. Aside from Party Monster, Firefly was the best of the lot.
