@McGentrix,
woodworking

gardening

buy a drone with a direct read video cam. Bird shots and waterways make neat shots
here in Pa we also have a lot of old railroad tunnels through mountains and passing (now) ghost towns that were humming during the coal booms of the 1800's.

soon time for spring turkey season.

I thought you were moving ?

audiobooks is really good to kill some time and in addition, you will learn a lot.


I second the audiobooks idea. Almost any book is now an audio book, and it let's me read good literature while I am doing the ironing.

@McGentrix,
I play poker. I always play live (i.e. with other people no computer screen).

The good parts. I actually make money over the long haul... it is an intellectual activity that I enjoy, and it get's me out and interacting with other men.

The bad parts... of course not everyone has success and some people could get into trouble.

You're working too hard, buy non iron shirts, you just have to hang them up.

Or put a sweater over it.

Another method is hang them pressed tightly between other items in the closet.

Haven't used the iron in years...other than as a paperweight.

How does that happen? If you're ironing how do you flip the pages of the book as the audio plays?

I only listen to the odd-numbered pages... that way I don't need to flip them.

@maxdancona,
Seriously, if you like audiobooks have you tried listening to plays? Radio 4 has a **** ton of Drama.
