Even though I voted Mountain biking, caving is another one of my interests. The caves in CT, USA are nothing more than simple shafts that barely leave enough room to turn around in to get back to the surface and usually are not very long. 
I was in one last month that we were actually able to stand up in - that's big news in CT! The state forrestry service doesn't acknowledge caves in CT. They refuse to admit they exist.
Thankfully there are caves (and forrestry services) in other states that are quite large.

I didn't think there were any small caves in the USA. 
I'm used to crawling down small limestone caves etched by streams. I met a Californian guy that was over for a year studying, and he said he went caving in his Jeep!  Now that's just not caveing.

To a programmer the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

football usually means football, but in America it means American football, in Australia it means Australian football in Ireland ... etc.
Wonder which one he had in mind?

Who here is doing martial arts or self defence? MY gym has just offered a month or free karate so I was thinking of taking them up on their offer.

I have got 5-6 years of Judo on my C.V. Never got past the brown belt though...
Then college came and I didn't really bring up the effort anymore...
Yeah Chris, take that class. I would love to see your C#-ass getting kicked!
Take care,

Sometimes I practice Tai CHi......
It's good for health, and via properly handling the "Chi",
you can make your strength becoming very great. And it's also a sort of traditional Chinese kong-fu, so of course you may study Tai Chi for self defence!

Gosh, why ask Chris ?
If its free for a month go for it !
In a month you should know if you wanna continue with it or not.
Unsure what you do at the gym, but its great for general health and mind to do mutiple disciplines.

Either I play online games with my friends. (We are all older professionals. Not any of this Leet Pher Me Dood crap.)
I also build model wooden boats.

But being this here's CodeProject, the most powerful forums in the world and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question, Do I feel lucky? Well do ya punk?

At the moment, just DungeonSiege. We are waiting for NWN to come out and are starting a world. www.shroudworld.com

Dungeon Siege does look like a great game.
At the moment I'm wasting a lot of time playing Anarchy Online. I did originally start playing to fill the time while waiting for Star Wars Galaxies, but it may become more than a stopgap game.

DS has very little depth. And between NWN and DS, I expect that NWN will do a better job at it.

Thats a shame. From all the pre-release previews and comments, it sounded like it was going to be a great game. Sort of like Diablo, only with more depth. I quite liked D2. I must admit I havent read any reviews because I've been preoccupied with AO.
As for NWN. Yes, thats another that I've been keeping an eye on, but I'm currently in a Sci-Fi mode, so Fantasy hasnt been getting my full attention.
Heh. I just realised. Thats another missing option in the Poll. Reading fiction. Thats another great way to let off steam.

Cycling ? Kayaking ? Give me a break. I go home, play with my kids, and then I program my own projects.

The tragedy of cyberspace - that so much can travel so far, and yet mean so little.
And you don't spend much time with the opposite sex working day and night, unless the pizza delivery person happens to be young, cute, single and female. I can assure you, I've consumed more than a programmer's allotment of pizza, and these conditions have never aligned. - Christopher Duncan - 18/04/2002
