I was just updating my profile info. and thought this might be a cool idea to get to know each other a little better. Besides being here and researching anything and everything Prometheus-oriented, what are your 3 top favorite hobbies? Me: Besides what's included in my job description I like to: 1. Fossil hunt (I'll throw in crystal mining too). 2. Antique picking / auctions. 3. SCUBA dive (preferably for fossils).

all right i am back to normal again...figured I would check one last time and I got "Lucky Lucky Lucky" as Ripley would sing aloud...so here ya go... Live and work in Montreal. MY handicap at golf by the way is 15 !!! Play a famous resort course here in Montreal in The Luarentian Mountain Range @ "Mount Tremblant" called "Le Geant" and twice or three times per year at that but that gets really expensive so I usually just play the local courses which aren't really that cheap anymore either..My Uncle John is on the waiting list to play St Andrews, I hope he invites me when he goes. Grew Up Mostly Here...a bit in Toronto & New York City. Father was in charge of Sales for Decca Records, then Irwin Toy when I was younger...owns his own toy company and is a novelist today. Mother sang Singing Telegrams for the Singing Telegram Company of Montreal for 35 or so years...and is still a singer/actress today. I filled in doing the Barney The Dinosaurs, The Power Rangers, Mickey Mouse, and 2 Striping gorillas one male and one female...that sort of thing...while she did all the regular telegrams and made a lot of extra wad doing it in the day. I am going to be 50 On June 15th of this year, one week after the release of the film. That CELEBRATION should be a "HOOT" !!! To Tell ya the truth at this point in my life I feel like every day for me above ground is a good day !!! I Love Sports am an avid Hokcey player and when I was much younger had stint with Jr. Canadians and retired after a massive brawl during a playoff game in which some of the other players got really badly hurt. Music and all the Arts, especially Stage and Film. Saw Annie, Peter Pan, and West Side Story, all during their original runs as a kid in NYC on Broadway...and fell hard for the theater. I Love to Party... Fav Films..."Alien", "2001: A Space Odyssey", "Hard Times", "Spartacus", Brian DePalma's "The Fury" Plus Anything Sergio Leone did, take your pick. Next to Ridley Scott, Sergio Leone is my all time favorite film guy! Fav Actor...Charles Bronson. {Deceased} Fav Color is Metallic Purple. Fav Music, The Black Crowes, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, The Stones. I Love as many Women as possible...especially all the ones named Charleze Theron... Guitar... And Cowboys Like Clint Eastwood and Aliens Like The Xenomorph. MY FAVORITE THINGS ON EARTH...aside from The Alien Franchise and Ridey Scott and H R Giger and Dan O'Bannon {also deceased sadly}...

!) Travel - each year I spend about a month overseas, something I've been doing for the last 10 years or so. 2) Music - lifelong music lover of all types from Perotin to Punk, collector 3) Film, and some television - Not sure how to catagorize my tastes except to call them wide and diverse. From "Citizen Kane" to "The Tin Drum" to "The Lake House"..my library may be a little confusing if not difficult to pigeonhole. 3000 titles and still adding. I'm an Aviation professional, but not a classic buff..no Stearman or J-Cub stashed away. For me, it's a vocation that pays well, but I wouldn't call it a hobby.

Wow guys and gals, great responses! What a diverse group! Bella wins for best hobbie. Sparty: band name: "The Prequels" or maybe... "Not The Prequels". Alien DNA: I'll check on those IMAX tix too! Tatooedkoi: ...a fellow Mt. Ida crystal miner! How cool is that? What's your best piece? If you've ever visited their chamber of commerce recently, that's my 4 footer in the front window that glows different colors at night. (OK, it's a prop I made for Smallville's website that I traded them for 3 days of mining a couple years back.) Keep em' coming fellow Prometheans!

I have been trying for 2 hours roughly now to get in here and post my profile, but I cannot access it, and I do not wish to recreate it after posting a long post in here this morning and only to have it get lost due to site maintenance on the upload. So I will wait and post MY actual profile page here tomorrow, thanks for your patience with me on that. Great thread man, hope everyone updates their profiles with stuff like all this. I think It is so cool to be able to visit each profile page and learn a bit about each member here, where they are and what they like to do in life.

All visual arts - especially classical painting methods, cinematography, drawing. PC and PS3 game - the more complex and difficult, the better. Bodybuilding - looking like a Greek sculpture is the goal, lol.

I rotate hobbies quite often (collecting figures/toys/anime), but in general I gravitate towards anything (old & new) and everything "science-fiction" (Star Wars, Alien, Tron, The Matrix) and "fantasy" (Lord of the Rings). Funny thing is.....I No longer watch TV per se. I gave up the DVR, too. I believe that our society (at least I am) is pulling away from viewing physical media (VHS, DVDs, Blu-Ray) and broadcasted shows in favor of being able to pull all/anything down from the internet. So hold unto your Blu-Rays, boys n girls, for in a decade or two, they'll seem like 8-tracks.

I recently purchased this plastic model of the Nostromo, I'm hoping to give it a paint job reminiscent of what I think space truckers would paint their beast. I realize that the dark blue greyish color that the original would have is probably best for the Mood of Horror and military space vehicles, so....I'm going to bring it down to earth a little. Will keep you all up dated to the final product. I would also like to later build a Refinery Rig to carry reefer.

I seem to have a new hobby every month, I'm fickle like that, but the ones I've kept to for many years are playing music (drums & guitar), collecting vintage video games/consoles and origami. Here's one of my creations. [img]http://i49.tinypic.com/15mgtoy.png[/img] And yeah, the only reason I wanted to create an origami unicorn was Blade Runner. I'm a geek.

!7 Century Battle Re enactment ( English Civil War ) Photography, I like themed shooting mainly mixed with a bit of fantasy art. Open mic guitar jamming. If anyone's not seen it I would highly recommend Ridley Scotts The Duellists.
