Guitar is a big one. As a side-interest, I restore old tube-amps, too. I used to restore Fender amps for a collector, but he was too much of a complainer. He'd start changing things around after I had tuned an amp to perfection (speakers, tubes, etc) and then try blaming me when the amp's performance had degraded. One time, he brought back a '65 Princeton Reverb complaining about bad sound, and I checked the tubes. He had re-tubed the amp with eastern European tubes with undersized pins, and a couple of the tubes practically fell out in my hand when I removed the tube-covers. I replaced those with a couple of vintage RCA tubes from my own stash and told him never to come back. Life is too short for that kind of drama.chiro said:Guitar, Piano, Mandolin, Internet, Music, Etc

This list reminds me of Tubular Bells - except for the Internet.chiro said:Guitar, Piano, Mandolin, Internet, Music, Etc
I'm retired, so all my time is free. My main hobbies are tennis, bicycling, eating, hanging out at the beach, playing the piano, eating, doing computer chess matches/tournaments, eating, drinking, selling books on Amazon, and doing arts and crafts shows with my girlfriend.

We have a little routine that he loves. I tell him "I'm going to get you!" and we start going through the routine. He comes to me, tail wagging, and I say "Gotta spank the butt" while spanking his butt, and I say "Gotta yank the tail" while giving his tail a little yank. Then we move on up to his head and I say "Gotta grab those ears" and "Gotta beep that nose" which makes him "snuff", and by that time he's collapsing on the floor, so I can follow up with "Gotta slap him on the chest", "Gotta scratch the belly", and "Gotta grab his legs". When I grab his front legs, he'll squirm around and bite one of his back legs while growling at himself. He's a character.
I might be a character, too. When my wife first saw me going through that "I'm going to get you" routine with Duke, she said "What are you doing?!". Then she realized that he loved it and had fun with it. When I say "I'm going to get you" he comes right over, expecting a play-date.
OK, just don't have any cologne on or any perfume in your clothes. Duke loves meeting new people.leroyjenkens said:That sounds like fun. I'm coming over to your house right now and we are going to play that game.

In my free time, I enjoy exploring new scientific concepts and theories, reading scientific journals and articles, and attending conferences and seminars to further my knowledge in my field of study.
Yes, I do! In my spare time, I love to hike, practice photography, and play musical instruments. These hobbies help me relax and recharge my mind after long hours of research and experimentation.
It can be challenging to find a balance between work and personal life as a scientist, but I make sure to prioritize my time and set boundaries. I also make sure to take breaks and engage in activities that bring me joy and help me unwind.
While I am passionate about my work as a scientist, I also believe in the importance of taking breaks and disconnecting from my research. Therefore, I usually do not use my free time to conduct experiments or research unless it is something I am particularly interested in.
In my opinion, the most important thing to do in my free time as a scientist is to continue learning and staying curious. This can involve reading books, attending workshops, or even watching documentaries related to my field of study. It helps me stay updated and motivated in my work.
