Pandora said:There's a lot of hobby type stuff that I pick up for awhile, get bored with it and then move onto something else. Painting, gardening, decorating, photography, playing the viola, and my new hobby sewing lol. But I usually get back around to it again. I think our interests/hobbies are a major part of who we are as an individual. Without these things that we 'do' we're just another warm body.

itburnswhenipee said:I wouldn't worry too much about it. Lots of people have passing interests which briefly consume them and then fade away. For instance, shortly after the conquest of France Hitler became obsessed with playing the banjo. This has actually been cited as a contributing factor in Germany's failure in the Battle of Britain. After a few short months, however, his interest in bluegrass had waned and he became focused instead with the overthrow of the Soviet Union.

Whizzleteets said:i bought myself a decent beater motorcycle this summer, and rode it for maybe a month. then all the morons in this town with their nice new bikes bought with college loan money made me feel embarrased to be riding a POS, so i just parked it.
i plan on fixing it up this winter, but we'll see how that goes, i guess.
My bike is definitely the shabbiest on the block when I park it at work, I don't care - I'm still riding every day I canWhizzleteets said:i bought myself a decent beater motorcycle this summer, and rode it for maybe a month. then all the morons in this town with their nice new bikes bought with college loan money made me feel embarrased to be riding a POS, so i just parked it.

Whizzleteets said:a 1988 honda hurricane. 600cc. it's not a bad bike, or rather, it won't be a bad bike, after i do a little wrenching on it this winter.
it's missing almost all of the plastic, so i figure i'll just go for the "street fighter" look with it. gonna take off the front fairing/headlight, and replace it with a round light, then paint the remaining plastic and the tank flat black. also, i figure i can just remove everything else that's not really necessary in the first place, and beat the piss out of the bike this spring.
