Other Hobbies?

Man, some great pictures in this thread! Absolutely loved seeing the shots of the Stompers! I collect BWs and reds, as well as Tomica and 1:43 Dinky and Spark. I kayak, skateboard, climb, hike, camp and backpack alot, travel, watch alot of movies (looking forward to Ridley Scott's 'Alien' prequel 'Prometheus' in June of 2012!), raise plumerias, drink craft beer (Stone! Russian River!) and head to the high desert to camp, drink and 4-wheel. Here's my '90 22Re 5-speed in the mountains above Calico - My second 4Runner, I've had this truck for about 12 years and have taken it as far north at the Arctic Ocean at the end of the Dalton Highway in Alaska:

I have to say that the Toyota 22re motor was probably the best engine ever.

I have an unusual hobby.At least I think it is cuz I never heard of anyone else doin'it.I collect bouncer shirts.Ya know,obtain the shirt of the guys back who guards the door.Many different reactions as you might guess.Fun! I have too many to list,here is one from a Samoan bouncer on the Hawaiian island of Oahu.On a scale size,I can easily fit four of me in this shirt.It goes down past my knees if I put it on.

I have too many hobbies, all with roots in my childhood: Hot Wheels, comic books (and original comic book art), stamps and toy soldiers. Hot Wheels and comics are the constants, though.

Another hobby of mine...
