No. Germans.

I do WWI and WWII reenacting. Just fun to tell folks I shoot Germans on the weekend.

Brian very nice collection.

BrianLavin · 27 January 2007, 06:59 AM

So you like to dress up and play army???

Dan Pierce · 27 January 2007, 07:09 AM

Cycling, music [been playing bass for 20 years], collecting things like vintage barber chairs, vintage bowling shirts, and then there's watches!

dP

Russel · 27 January 2007, 07:15 AM

I would love to have this (the bank note, not the amount.)

Or one of these:

BrianLavin · 27 January 2007, 07:19 AM

Neither one of those were ever real notes. The 100000 gold certificate was used for inter-banking transactions but never owned by any one individual.

The other note is whats called a fantasy note. Not real.

If any of you guys have old paper money hanging around I buy it and I pay fast.

Launch Mini · 27 January 2007, 07:22 AM

Try cashing those at Wal Mart
I heard that some one actually stole some notes like those & tried cashing them at a Wal Mart.
The clerk was wise enough to call authorities.

My hobbies are:

1. Watches.
2. Collecting Vintage Guitars (USA Deans, Gibson, Fender). Restoring old guitars, buying selling, playing guitars, oodeling guitars :) Just finished restoring my 1st real guitar..... a 1969 strat... she's purty in Oly white, rose neck ;)....
3. Cars - Played with fuel inj mustangs (347 strokers, blowers), autocrossing, dragracing, restoring the wifes 66 Mustang. Looking for a numbers matching GTO Judge to restore.... for under 20K (LOL) :)
4. Jetskiing - Building FAST Jetskiis, Freestyle, wave jumping, and cruising... currently building an 880 stroker Kawi Twin for my X-2... taking a ski that ran 35mph stock and planning to hit 55mph ;)... that's not fast for today's modern run-abouts.... BUT it is REAL fast for an old school stand-up style ski...... WAHOO!

Have to admit the watches take up less space and aren't as LOUD as all of my other hobbies ;) :) :)

I like LOUD things.

rolexfan21 · 27 January 2007, 10:15 AM

1. Tennis (I love playing in the summer outdoors, not too much indoors but i love it)
2. Chess (Played this game for a while and played competitively)
3. Guitar
4. Movies

Are you really a pro poker player? Where and what stakes u play??

roadcarver · 27 January 2007, 01:01 PM

Cool!

BTW, are you into WWII stuff? Do you like to play games on the computer? If so, there's a game called Company of Heroes. It's a real cool game.. you get to be either the allies or axis, and you fight for territory.

Other than my modest collection of watches, my other hobbies include:

Cigars, playing pool, watching Bond movies and "24", shooting my HK Compact .45 tactical, and I have recently started collecting Rolex ads.
I also enjoy watching college football and Major League Baseball.
