it's probably been done before on here, but, what the hell, i needed a break from some of the seriousness

What do you like to do when not spinning? yknow what i mean, hobbies, pasttimes, etc?

1) I race bikes (and wreck them with the greatest of ease), the last wreck earned me a solid 9 rating, most of it was style points, as i really didnt get hurt as badly as i could have. But, the wheelie while downshifting and keeping my front tire about 2 inches above zeke's back seat was just too damned impressive to rate any less

2) Websites: someone has to do it, and since no one else in the company will, i get stuck with it, but, hell, it's just so nice when something comes together in an evening and actually looks presentable

3) rock climbing, rapelling, caving

4) designing new and more dangerous looking firetoyz

5) remixing music for one of my poi guys

6) veggin with my significant other and just enjoying life

7) helping to set up and prepare venues for fire shows, goth shows, and other assorted fun stuff

8) perfecting the art of extremely low budget special effects

thats all i can think of for now, but, i'm still half asleep. (took myself off pain meds two days ago, so, trying to fall asleep is a royal pain lately)

heh as bad as me, i gave my poi to a guy here that is learning, so, to make up for it.. took a security retractor (the lil thing they use on displays to keep people from walking off with the display stuff) and hooked a keyring to it.. now when i leave and get bored, i can pull out a foot or two of wire and spin my keys around me like a madman

What do I do when I'm not twirling???? Well chat to people here on HoP of corse!!!

No... I actually do other stuff too...

Stilt walking... belly dance... drumming... arty farty stuff... Costume disign... actually I feel like I'm repeating myself here... coz all of my "other" interests are in my intro.... and others have probably done the same... perhaps you could check out what people do when they are not twirling there...
