Probably like most people here I like to keep myself busy with little projects to do.. Lets me think outside the box and it's an excellent way to spend a hour or two each day doing something for an ultimate goal.. I'm throwing it out to you guys if you have anything if particular you like to work on that doesn't cost a whole lot to do? I'm thinking under $100 here being a poor college student.. I've spent a little money adding some mods to my guns, built a cheap home server, and sometimes whatever I can fix around my house at school (squeaky door, rusty mailbox.. etc..) How about you?? I need some ideas to prevent from going insane! :twisted:

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth

learn to brew beer or other alcoholic libations. its fun but you need to invest in equipment and cleaning products. its also not very hands-on all the time (you do something, it sits for a few days, do something else, sits for another week...)
