Just come into our chatroom #houstonrockets on the webnet server (you can just go to the clutchfans.net chat and replace #clutchchat with #houstonrockets) we'll tell you all you need to know.
My favorite hobby, especially this time of year, is vegetable gardening. My current scorecard for this year(harvested and either eaten myself or given to family and friends)... Tomatoes - 154 Jalepenos - 58 Sweet Banana Peppers - 29 Cucumbers - 24 Red Bell Peppers - 3 Yellow Bell Peppers - 1 I also grow basil, rosemary, garlic chives and Italian parsley in containers. Nothing makes me happier than seeing friend's faces light up when I give them produce that I grew myself.
I would "garden" when I was younger but now that I have a wife, kids and a house I don't want the feds to take my stufff away.
When we meet, and I know that someday we will, please remind me to tell you the story of my "container" garden and the low flying police helicopter. Story is best told in a non-sober state of mind!
Stack, I think I know what happened. Is your email through the BBS current? I am guessing it is not and is outdated. Just email me at jfyoung@charter.net and I'll resend the message that I sent last night to the apparent bad email address.

Debating politics. I'm a D & D junky! Martial arts, although that might be less of a hobby and more of an obsessive compulsive / emotional disorder. Skiing in the winter. Playing guitar. Lately I'm trying my hand at writing a novel. Picking my nose.
Play sports (mostly basketball) Watch sports Internet (BBS, NBA.com, and other sites) Reading basketball magazines Chat in the MSN Messenger Watch TV: ER, Gilmore Girls, King of Queens, Everybody loves Raymond, sports shows, etc. ( I watch a lot of TV) Play video games
Table tennis basketball (watching and shooting hoops at lunch) music (listening, viewing, reading, writing about, collecting) history fantasy baseball and football swimming watching poker on television (I am recently hooked..I played a game called Dynamite which was great fun and saw a lot of money change hands amongst my friends, but Texas Hold 'Em is new to me) downloading tv shows
Playing video games (shock and awe). Mostly PS2/PSP/PC stuff, but I actually did play some Halo 2 this week and had a good time (you hear that guys, I enjoyed playing a game on a non-Sony console ). A related hobby to that is actually keeping up with the info on the current/next-gen consoles, primarily the hardware side of things. I've also been branching out into the PC hardware side of things as well, and I'm actually a little excited to see Nvidia and ATI show off their new cards soon (Nvidia is unveiling in a week or 2, IIRC). I can't afford any of the new cards, which, unlike the next-gen consoles will retail for much more than ~$300, but it is still something I like to keep an eye on. I also like other tech stuff, ranging from some consumer products (HDTV's, disc formats, etc.) to some cool open-source programs to anything else you can really think of. I basically just check out stuff that the old school Screen Savers people (Leo, Patrick, Kevin R, Robert, Roger, Yoshi, etc.) talk about in their blogs and video/radio internet shows. Some other hobbies: TV (Family Guy, Conan O' Brien, Cheap Seats, sports other than the NBA, etc.) Internet (Homestar Runner stuff) Playing sports, mostly basketball
