Re: [Elecraft] [OT] The Ultimate List of Hobbies for Men
Great, old photos are worth as much as the texts themselves! I consider myself a bit of a "hobby-defined individual" and I've participated in 26 of these activities at some level, and a few others in passing. But ham radio surpasses them all! I'm also still active in SCUBA diving, flying, cycling, photography, and a few of the others. I was surprised to see lock picking listed as a "hobby" since it can often be quite illegal. But then I recalled some college classmates who got a big kick out of it. Although it was certainly illegal, I never heard of anyone being harmed or prosecuted. The student hackers just wanted to prove they could do it and, as far as I knew, never stole or damaged anything along the way. Thanks for the pointer. /Rick N6XI Rick Tavan Truckee, CA On Sun, Mar 4, 2018 at 2:06 PM, Al Lorona wrote: > I found it mildly gratifying that our hobby is listed at #2 of these 75: > > > https://www.artofmanliness.com/2016/01/25/the-ultimate- > list-of-hobbies-for-men-75-ideas-for-your-free-time/ > Certainly, climbing a tower, sticking your hands into the HV compartment > of an amplifier, or emergency communication under adverse conditions would > require a modicum of manliness. > > (Begging the pardon of the ladies among us.) > > > Al W6LX > __ > Elecraft mailing list > Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft > Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm > Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net > > This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net > Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html > Message delivered to rta...@gmail.com > __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com

I misread the title and thought it was hobbies for us men over 75 until I saw parkour listed (which I couldn't have done even when I was younger without falling on my face.

I teach modern jive which is now far more popular than ballroom dancing which I trained in in my 20's. Now in my 70's this has a very healthy following and is far easier to learn without private lessons. I met both my XYLs (40 years apart) at dance venues. Mostly popular with >40 year-olds.
