Garage
Tinkering - includes auto, bike, brew rig, sewing (costumes <->keg insulation)
Brewing beer and being a beerhunter (lots of wine here - beer must make you quiet)
Bicycling - mostly trails with climbs - I'm more of a 40min/20 min guy - either strong or chicken.
Reading a good novel - "Art of Racing in the Rain" might be tops - needed beer content to be perfect.
Past passions I have put on hold - Geocaching, Thunderhill HPDEs, PPOT

It's surprising how many of us are similar to (or imitating) each other!

1. Family (just not all of them)
2. My awesome friends. I love them.
3. My dogs.
4. Outside stuff involving machinery, tools, and the burning of fossil fuels.
5. The rest: travel, food, work, reading, etc.

What, you actually read the first post before typing? Look at how many have family on their list. In a day or so, check and see how many posts have an edit.

NO wonder when I go to the food counter, order, pay, get change and then the cashier asks, "What was your drink?" That was just too much for her poor little brain.

I'm guilty of posting "family" as my top passion.

I sort of disagree with the assumption that is an obvious choice, as is health. Both are taken for granted far too much.

So, with the idea that there is no particular order:

Making things.
Talking about making things.
Getting tools to make things.
Meeting people or at least being out and mobile.
Sex.

Add repairing things to the first 3.
Couldn't say it better if I tried!
