How To Get A Life
It's never easy to overcome innate nerdity, a serious Internet addiction, or a hard-core computer gaming habit, but trying usually isn't as painful as kidney stones. Here's how:
Let go of the mouse.
Turn off the computer.
Play a game of solitaire with a real deck of cards.
Eat something other than taco chips.
Fart without recording it and putting it up your Web page.
Get some sleep in bed rather than on your keyboard.
Next time you wake up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, don't tell everyone on your ICQ list about it.
Open a window without turning your computer back on (yes, it is possible). Very gradually expose your eyes to increasingly bright light so as to avoid damage or permanent sun blindness.
When you feel prepared for a massive dose of non-CRT radiation, put on welding goggles and go outside.
If you see someone, say "Hi" to them instead of trying to make the modem connect sound.
Visit a friend that you haven't spoken to in years because they don't have an email address.
Have ".com" officially removed from behind your name. Go on a date with someone you didn't meet in a chat room.

My mid life crisis is a '89 Lotus Excel.
According to my wife it had to be a 19yr old car as I'd never have caught a 19yr old blonde.

Tough choice. Either one will be expensive, high maintenance, and time consuming.According to my wife it had to be a 19yr old car as I'd never have caught a 19yr old blonde.
Factors to consider:
You decide when to take the car out.
Cost of gas vs. cost of food, etc.
Planning the route to show off or to avoid being seen.
Level of acceptance by wife.

I looked at the Triumph Sprint, Honda ST1300, and Yamaha FJR as well as the Rocket III, but I could not get used to the aggressive riding position for a long distance ride.My Blackbird serves well as a tourer and a trackbike.
But there will be a new trackbike soon...
The Roadliner won out over the rocket just because of funding... Besides 1900cc/113CID is more than enough with a V-Twin, I can just imagine all the trouble I'd bee in with a 2300cc Triple (With the wife, the law, the neighbors...)
what I like to do...

I love to spend my extra time outside with my husband- hiking, tennis, jogging, picnicking. If it's raining out, a good book on a comfy couch by a window. Volunteering with a local animal rescue group, and playing with my kitties!

Cycling: infinite miles per gallon. Would ride to work if I didn't think the hill-billies would run me off the two lane highway.
