I do go running sometimes... and geocaching... and I'm still going to my krav maga classes as well as heavy weapons melee fighting in the SCA. So... those things don't involve my crotch in any significant way. But you are probably right... my stress management activities lean heavily to one side.

Running, geocaching, krav maga and heavy weapons melee fighting is all nopes, what else?

I'm winning fantasy football, does that count hehe
(OK probably doesn't count at this point.)

Good afternoon every one. Hope Turk is going good. Sorry haven't been on in a while but me and PhantomCatt had to evac for a hurricane. Now she Catt is headed to our house down there for the first time to see what damage our house has taken. I am sure she explained the whole story so won't write that book lol. Either way please keep us in your prayers as Catt should be there in a matter of hours.

this is surprisingly a lot of fun

Last time I went out one of the caches we found had a geocoin that had travelled all the way from russia... I've got a shoot in california this halloween, so I'm hoping to drop it into a cache out there while I'm in town.

Well... most of the other stuff involves rope (or some other implement, but rope is sort of the "thing" that turns my crank right now), a camera, and my crotch... so... its a good stress dump but prolly not the best sort of stuff to talk about in the daily thread.

It really helps to have a passion project too, I think. I've been working on getting a documentary series put together which has been pretty fun. I've never been much of a video guy but I'm definitely enjoying the complete change in skill set it is requiring. I'm hoping I can get a grant to expand the series some if I can drum up some interest.
