Re: [meteorite-list] Other hobbies?

2010-09-19 Thread GeoZay


Hi all...just got back from my 9 day  canoe trip on the Green River in Utah 
and found this interesting thread.  So...here's my list of hobbies...

1) Ten years of serious meteor  observing...don't do it now.
2) Scenic and Still Life Photography...Very  active about 30 years 
ago...took a break for about 20 years and began again  these last 8 years. 
3) Fishing...not as much as I use to, but put a pole in  my hands and the 
juices flow again.
4) Meteorite collecting on a minor  scale.
5) gold prospecting...not as much this year due to the California  
Moratorium on dredging.
6) Genealogy research of my family...Been doing this  for about 40 years. 
My Gr Gr Grandfather was a Texas Ranger in 1850 and also  fought with Gen. 
Sam Houston at the Battle of San Jacinto that ended the Texas  war of 
independence.  Recently found out that I'm an 8th cousin to Edwin  Hubble.

Totally forgot this on my list:

* collecting uniform patches from the Military (esp. Black) Space Program

A number of them (not all) can be seen here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_NRO_satellites

This started as a spin-off of my satellite observations, which is focussing on 
'black' satellites (see http://sattrackcam.blogspot.com)


- Marco




Okay, here is my list:

* Astronomy: observing classified satellites;
* Astronomy: observing meteors (once my main activity, now much less);
* Astronomy: hunting minor planets (recently less so too);
* photography: macro (esp. Dragonflies)
* photography: panorama
* meteorite collecting;
* books (esp. about New Guinea expeditions);
* geology;

At one time or another, I have also for a while been:

* painting;
* sculpturing;

There are a few more things I dabble or dabbled in, but wouldn't call hobbies

Good food (originally trained and worked as a chef)
Keeping freshwater and marine aquaria

an ex SAS instructor who was first used by UK police forces to track
multiple murderer Barry Prudom and worked on lots of cases after too,
see link (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_Prudom)
Fascinated by sharks which led to an obsession with Megalodon and

I am a collector at heart - I always have the urge to complete series or sets 
of items.  I enjoy collecting fossils and some rocks, but not seriously.  If 
you 
just want to count the detailed obsessive stuff, then...

Tektites  Meteorites
Postage stamps (US mainly - pre self-adhesive)
Movie memorabilia (Specifically, Indiana Jones - I have a 'few' items)
Vintage computing (Apple II series)
Hunting (deer, antelope) (not so much a collection activity as it is a 
hobby...)

Hello Daryl and Listees,

I can't remember a time in my life that I wasn't involved in multiple 
avocations and hobbies. Some have had legs and are still vying for the time to 
enjoy them...dozens of others have dropped by the side of the road in my seven 
decades of travel.

Flying ...I soloed 52 years ago and have ratings in single and multi-engine 
land and sea planes, helicopters and gliders.

Fencing...A Prevot d'Armes in Foil, Epee' and Saber. USFA National Medalist. 
FAI Referee. Fencing Master at the Adelson Prep School.

Auto Racing..SCCA Pro and IMCA Licenses. Competed in single seat sports racing 
and formula cars.  

Motorcycles..Sold my Hyabusa..I'm too old for it. I know ride a Honda 750 
Shadow Aero cruiser tricked out to look like a copsicle.

Hot Boats.. Just sold my last. A 21' Carrera jet with a Gale Banks built 454 
cu.in. motor. Here's a link if you like fast boats.   
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eL5SMpgtdVA

Firearms...NRA Certified Instructor. Collect WW2 military and enjoy long range 
target shooting with my M70 .308 sniper.

WritingDocu-dramas, short stories, screen treatments. Published. Writer's 
Guild member.

Art Photography...Published. Specialize in aerial documentation of contemporary 
earth sculptures..Smithson, Heizer, DeMaria, etal. 

Collect..Objects of Virtue, contemporary art, wines, classical music recordings 
and my family history. Here's a link if you'd like to know how one becomes a 
Count.  http://www.guidodeiro.com/

And that's it...too many notes.

Best regards to all having fun in life. You only go around once..so, make the 
best of it.

Hi Count,

Your resume is reminds of me of the Dos Equis most interesting man in
the world.  I think you have him beat across the board.  I've never
seen such an eclectic range of interests, all of which mastered to a
great degree.  And you can now add meteorite hunter of the record

2010-09-15 Thread Marco Langbroek

Okay, here is my list:

* Astronomy: observing classified satellites;
* Astronomy: observing meteors (once my main activity, now much less);
* Astronomy: hunting minor planets (recently less so too);
* photography: macro (esp. Dragonflies)
* photography: panorama
* meteorite collecting;
* books (esp. about New Guinea expeditions);
* geology;

At one time or another, I have also for a while been:

* painting;
* sculpturing;

There are a few more things I dabble or dabbled in, but wouldn't call hobbies

Most of the things I do are too diffuse to count as hobbies:
 
Home improvement (DH and I have an agreement: he keeps the computers happy, and 
I keep the house going.)
 
Reading.  I work in a library, and have first dibs on all new material.  'Nuff 
said!
 
Paintball, although we haven't played for many years now.
 
War-, computer, and role playing games.  We have a weekly gaming session, plus 
online gaming.
 
I collect semiprecious gems as well as meteorites, but not seriously.
 
I also do various craft-type things, as diverse as quilting, wood carving, 
printmaking and jewelry making.
 
Astronomy, especially promoting it to children.  Next week, I've arranged for 
telescope time on one of the big Haleakala telescopes via the Maui branch of 
the Institute for Astronomy (UH), to be controlled through an Internet 
connection and viewed at our library.  This will be the 4th time we've done 
this, and it's a real crowd pleaser.
 
That's all I can think of for now.

Wow. what an interesting group and such fascinating interests.  I love  
it.


It's funny, among my friends my fascination with meteorites makes me  
seem rather exotic---but not in this crowd:


--antiquarian maps
--photographing flowers

Dear Meteorite Hunters, Collectors and List,

It has taken me a little time to get caught on things after taking   
the summer
off to enjoy other hobbies. One thing I was finally able to do was   
sit and read
Eric Wichman's new, Meteorite Hunting  Collecting magazine. If   
you have not
read it yet, you are missing out. There are full cool images on   
every page in

the magazine, great articles by dedicated people we all know and even the
thickness of the paper stock is of the highest quality.

I would like to publicly congratulate Eric and all the supporting   
individuals
for bringing to life an idea started in thought all the way through  
 to a super
high quality publication worthy of all collections! I am just   
wondering how they


will top the first issue, must be some surprises to be revealed in the next
issue.

Congratulations to Eric, his persistence has brought us another   
quality magazine


that will be eagerly awaited like long established, Meteorite magazine!

Best regards,
Greg

But let's get on track here.

I am a serious ghost hunter for many years who has traveled around the 
country to some of the most haunted places in the United States as well as 
ghost hunted with TAPS several times! I created 2 documentary CD's on the 
haunted paranormal. One on EVP-Electronic Voice Phenomena and the other 
about a very haunted former poorhouse now called Rolling Hills located in 
East Bethany N.Y. I have my own paranormal website called Sci Tech 
Paranormal Investigations. www.scitechpi.com  I also did a 2 year study of 
the Frank's Box (an electronic instrument that can communicate with the 
other side) and modified a version of the Frank's Box of which I used to 
create a 2 part video about this amazing electronic instrument posted on 
YouTube while proving by mathematics that this instrument is real and 
works!! The Videos can be viewed on my website at 
http://www.scitechpi.com/franksbox.html  If you find time, check the videos 
out, they will totally make you think differently of the afterlife!

2010-09-14 Thread Greg Catterton
My current collections are unopened Star Wars stuff, Pink Floyd bootlegs (audio 
and video), Cal Ripken Jr baseball cards (from when I was a kid) assorted rocks 
and minerals topped off with a collection of paper money from around the world. 
I also have some assorted old and unusual coins that includes 3 legged buffalo 
nickel and a shoebox full of old civil war currency that was my grandfathers. I 
have been told that some of it is really rare, but just havent ever taken the 
time to see what all its worth as I likely wouldnt ever sell it anyways.

Aside from collecting, I enjoy video games (PS3 all the way) and pretty much 
anything that includes outdoor activities when time permits... keeping up with 
2 kids, 3 dogs, 2 cats and a ferret takes up most my time.

Hope everyone is doing good, I am off to take pictures of my new 1.39g of 
Orgueil...

I am a collector at heart - I always have the urge to complete series or 
sets of items.  I enjoy collecting fossils and some rocks, but not 
seriously.  If you just want to count the detailed obsessive stuff, then...


Tektites  Meteorites
Postage stamps (US mainly - pre self-adhesive)
Movie memorabilia (Specifically, Indiana Jones - I have a 'few' items)
Vintage computing (Apple II series)
Hunting (deer, antelope) (not so much a collection activity as it is a 
hobby...)

Dear Meteorite Hunters, Collectors and List,

It has taken me a little time to get caught on things after taking the summer 
off to enjoy other hobbies. One thing I was finally able to do was sit and read 
Eric Wichman's new, Meteorite Hunting  Collecting magazine. If you have not

thickness of the paper stock is of the highest quality.

I would like to publicly congratulate Eric and all the supporting individuals 
for bringing to life an idea started in thought all the way through to a super 
high quality publication worthy of all collections! I am just wondering how 
they 

will top the first issue, must be some surprises to be revealed in the next 
issue.

Congratulations to Eric, his persistence has brought us another quality 
magazine 

that will be eagerly awaited like long established, Meteorite magazine!

Dear Meteorite Hunters, Collectors and List,

It has taken me a little time to get caught on things after taking the 
summer
off to enjoy other hobbies. One thing I was finally able to do was sit and 
read
Eric Wichman's new, Meteorite Hunting  Collecting magazine. If you have 
not
read it yet, you are missing out. There are full cool images on every page 
in

the magazine, great articles by dedicated people we all know and even the
thickness of the paper stock is of the highest quality.

I would like to publicly congratulate Eric and all the supporting 
individuals
for bringing to life an idea started in thought all the way through to a 
super
high quality publication worthy of all collections! I am just wondering 
how they


will top the first issue, must be some surprises to be revealed in the 
next

issue.

Congratulations to Eric, his persistence has brought us another quality 
magazine


that will be eagerly awaited like long established, Meteorite magazine!

Best regards,
Greg
