For a good year and a half now it's been collecting quality agate....particularly Mexican & Argentinian.
This is the rebirth of a love I had as a child of collecting geodes found locally & agate found during summers spent in Northern Wisconsin.

I'm a bit of a Trekkie too, although I haven't seen it in ages.

I love Fallout:NV as well.

I don't have any obsessive interests. I suppose computer games would be the closest thing to an obsession, but I don't think it comes close to being an obsession.

I do spemd way too much time on the internet though.

Fixing and repairing things is my longest running interest had it basically since I was a kid the only thing that changes is what I am working on at the moment

Speaking of Trek  anyone ever play Star Fleet Battles?  That was an obsession of mine for awhile in college and right after.  I once drove about 100 miles one way to get an expansion rule book at a hobby store

No, but I played a whole lot of Master of Orion.

 :lol:

Me too. I prefer MoO2 though. I still have it on my computer. I like the way you can make the different races live on the same planet.

I would always try and get a Psilon colonist, and then send Psilons all over the galaxy to work as my scientists.

Yes, I am an aspie :nerdy:
