2. Do you collect anything? If so, what? The new State quarters (one from each mint), playing cards from wherever I travel for business (perhaps I need to change it to wherever I travel to, period), Hot Wheels cars (although not a fanatic collector), and my DW would probably say that I collect computers although I disagree...;)

3. Is there a hobby you're interested in, but just don't have the time/money to do? Probably some sort of adventure race, maybe even competing in cycling; bike touring, web design.

4. Have you ever turned a hobby into a moneymaking opportunity?  Well, would you count getting a hot deal and then making a profit out of it by selling it to someone else?  Yep...Ebay is my friend...:)

5. Besides web-related stuff (burbs, rings, etc.), what clubs do you belong to? Table tennis club - does that count? In the past, I belonged to the Univ. of Texas Ballroom dance club & the UT fencing club.  I guess "clubs" are most popular for the younger crowd.

Well...I got to see my friend/co-worker for a moment when he dropped by work briefly today - he seems to be ok although a bit worse for the wear.  He related the whole experience to me and said that he sure is lucky/blessed to be alive.  In a nutshell, what happened was that the RV trailer they were towing hydroplaned, and when it jackknifed, it took the truck with it, and as a result, the truck flipped on its side, slid a ways, and then rolled on its roof when it hit the grassy median.  I sure was glad to see him though.  Poor guy sure doesn't need anything more crappy to happen to him.  Hopefully we'll get out & do something soon.

On a brighter note, the teenagers from our church are doing a garage sale fundraiser this weekend so we were able to donate (de-clutter) some more things of ours for their cause.  :) 

And while we had our front door open last night, Sugar Spot (SS), our girl kitten, decided it was time to go exploring since the screen was ripped.  I heard this loud sound & went to check it out.  Found her sitting on the mat outside our front door looking around.  Silly thing.  We are planning on getting harnesses & leashes when they are full grown so we can at least take them out.

Pointless observation:  One thing I *have* noticed...and this may be just a freak coincidence.  But out of all the weblogs I've read or visited briefly, seems like cats are the most popular pet if a blogger has a pet.  I mean, the cat owners easily outnumbered the dog owners 10:1 it seemed like - has anyone else noticed this?  If it's the case, anyone have any insight why it is that way?  Is there any correlation between aspiring writers and being a cat lover?

And I will leave you all with one of the funniest websites I've ever seen - Check out Redneck Neighbor.  If you think *you* have bad neighbors, wait until you see this guy.  :) Hehe.

Have a great weekend everyone!!
