DAMN.... :? must be nice to have TIME for hobbies...lol but seriously, if i ever get away from work long enough, I spend my spare time doing car audio design and installs, some odds and ends computer stuff, but most of my time is spent on the Cutlass and Vista or work...once and a while I do get time to sit down and play some PS1, or work on the computer with my engine and drag racing simulations, trying to find another few tenths of a second here or there...I also get on EvilBay from time to time and wander thru the numerous things...

yeah i must agree with 88 on the A+ stuff. There is so much old school information that you are expected to know by heart. I know how to use dos, but if it was a major repair i would need to bust out a book. I took an A+ class my junior and senior year of high school and it helped alot....got a free book out of it. I also got a net+ book. Now if you want to learn about some hard shit read that book :lol: That's cool though 88 how you can bring in at least 22 bux. I know someone at work who runs a business out of his house and he has high prices. It's like 30 bux just to open the case and 40 bux an hour pluss parts. He does perty good with it too. It looks like I might be able to start doing that before summer, because my hours are going to get cut at work big time after the first. I'll have to get some ideas from ya around then! we could become "business partners" :D

trying a hobby again that i tried a few years ago... brewing beer! can't wait till i get my ingredients in the mail.

didn't really work out the last time, beer tasted horrible and had to open them in the sink because they were a bit overcarbonated, dumped most of them. but what did i know, since i couldn't legally buy beer at the time, i figured i'd make my own.

I have too many hobbies. But thankfully I'm Dutch (tightwad), so I don't spend too much on any one hobby. I collect 1/18th scale die cast cars, baseball cards and memoribilia (Tigers fan, so that stuff is the cheapest), and I like to play computer games.
