    s_n_s what kind of horse do you own? Do you ride English or Western? I'd love to own a horse *sigh*. But all I do is riding lessons.

    My other hobbies include horses largely - be it just spending time down at the barn with mine, schooling my horse or watching Show Jumping on TV. I also love to read (mostly Science Fiction and Fantasy type novels). I'm also a writer, haven't done too much of that lately. Thats all I can really think of right now ...

    It cost me summer camp, plus some out of my own pocket for the hopper, and NOX board. I take it you don't play speedball, or just started. Cockers are losing popularity fast, but they're nice guns if you take care of them.

    My first gun was a spyder xtra, I've been going up since then.

    I like to volunteer (Humane Society and zoo), hike, canoe, fish, decorate, cook, watch football, travel, and take my dog to the dog park. I don't like to study, but it's what I spend the majority of my time doing since I'm in grad school.

    I spend most of the day at school and work. I attend Augusta State University. When I'm not doing either of those I play bass in a band that me and my friends made. Don't think you'll ever hear of us though as we don't have a good singer and we can't write lyrics.

    Whenever I have any spare time (after kid/school related stuff and animals), I play flute, piano and guitar, do decorative art painting, and read books. I also love movies, but don't get a chance to go and see them too often now...gotta fit in sleep somewhere!

    besides taking care of my kids, hubby, and little critters, i'm currently working on getting my horse started undersaddle and training my dog so he can become a certified therapy dog.

    when i have alone time (which is hardly ever), i like to snuggle up with a book...usually something on horse or dog training.

    i really don't have much time for a hobby, now that i think about it...

    You don't need a lot of knowledge to play paintball, just be able to tech your gun. And for the money part its only like $40 every other sunday.

    Hockey, snowboarding, guitar, trying not to get hurt playing wreckless hockey. And watching copious amounts of college football. Bowl season is just a few weeks away!! God bless college football.

    The cheapest way to play paintball long-term is to buy a gun. It's $200 to get a good one, but you don't have to rent one ever again. And you can play where ever you want. We play down in some woods in RI. Obviously you have to be respective of local laws and other people, but it's much better being able to use whatever balls you want, play whatever games you want, make up your own rules, etc. Most places make all their money on the balls, so that's a big one.

    Hey General, where ya from? I mainly just work, mess with my herps and race motocross. I am not into the whole 4 wheels thing, 2 wheels are my passion. I also enjoy just about anything outdoors, especially in the woods. later
