Cheap hobby suggestions

[Perrone]

Since I got this Job at Dell I'm starting to really dislike computers more and more. I used to love toying around with them, but now I hardly ever touch my computer at home unless checking my email or something.
Anyway, I'm looking for a new hobby. I'm thinking about reading through my criminal justice books from front to back simply because that stuff interests the heck out of me and it'll help in my classes, but I also need something else.

So lets hear it. What are some good cheap hobby suggestions? I'm really up for anything at this point so no reason to ask what I like. If I knew, I wouldn't be asking

Thanks ahead of time

wood burning, soldering/electrical repair, holster making, sports, slap and tickle

Try guns, they are an out of the house hobby and will keep you away from those pesky computers that keep calling your name.

Unfortunately they cost more to feed than my kids, but you got to consider your priorities.

I picked this hobby up when I was 42. That was 3 years ago.

It's like snowskiing without the lift lines and the cold.

Off the top of my head:

- Geocaching (you have the overhead of a GPS, but from there it's inexpensive)
- Free online learning (one example: http://www.extension.harvard.edu/openlearning/;jsessionid=PDDIIDKDJDIN_)
- Hiking (even at ubran locations, i.e. Sutton Wilderness or Draper Lake)
- Freemasonry (To be one, ask one)

RC planes...me and my son are about to get into this. I can see lots of time spent flying these cool planes.

Already in college, it's more than enough learning for now

No offense, but do skateboarders make fun of you the same way they make fun of skiers?

(For the record, I prefer skates and skis over boards)

yep...they would be called things such as fruit booters...

my brother is a skater and I was into freestyle bmx when I was younger.
