I'm looking for another hobby to keep me active.
Any old man sports? I don't want to buy a bunch of equipment or have any travel costs.
I'm under 50 years old and live in a big city.
Anyone have any ideas?

Originally posted by CC PatzerDon't listen to Scotty. The wife will make you pick up virtual poop with it, engage in virtual talk, virtual hanky panky and before you know you'll be crying uncle! First make sure she hasn't already bought the virtual dog software! Or the Wii Mall shopping spree interphase!

Or if you're not into self-defense and yoga looks too painful, then try Tai Chi.
