    Well I drink vast quantities of beer (Beer is good), oh hang on,
    when they(you)'re not working or doing other important stuff?
    beer is important..

    hmmm. What else. Oh yeah,
    -eat,
    -sleep,
    -play stupid computer games and p%@s off the wife,
    -doss on the beach,
    -join forces with various other 'computer people' who have an absolute winner of a way to make loads of money, but that just fade away to nothing,
    -try and persuade the missis that a new motorbike would be a wise investment,
    -and of course, wrestle salt water crocodiles.

    ...
    I can only please one person per day. Today is not your day. Tomorrow is not looking good either.

    I keep on programming... Ok, I need to supply myself with the basic needs of a human (like eating, sleeping, ...)
    Of course, then there's this Discussion Forum called CodeGuru (or something like that) where I'm a moderator.

    Of course, in the weekends I tend to make some time for other important stuff, which usualy goes down in a pub.

    And I thought I was weird as a Satanist. I've never collected anything, except between the age of 12-15 red Ferrari 1:18 scale models. But that's it. Never been fan as a kid of rages such as pins, cards, and other specially designed collectable crap to get the money out of teenagers like Pokemon recently. I think collecting things is for people who have a screw loose. But that's just my personal opinion.

    Yeah, I collect bugs

    Nah, just kiddin'

    Nothing really special. Cooking, eating, sleeping, playing badminton, drinking a few pints, watching TV, making a 5000 pieces puzzle, petting my cat, going out. Most of these with my wife.

    Hehe, I also collect my cinema, theatre and concert tickets

    In my free time, I watch movies, post on Codeguru, play games, go out, used to travel (before getting this **** job ) and practice Kendo.

    I also like cooking, and am making some progress on spanish dishes, but I still have a lot of trouble with getting my paella as good as the ones of spanish mothers
    Get this small utility to do basic syntax highlighting in vBulletin forums (like Codeguru) easily.
    Supports C++ and VB out of the box, but can be configured for other languages.

    That's already two people who actually like cooking. Anybody planning to set up a restaurant after being fired as programmer? Hypothetical question.

    I collect Euros, but only the paper money. If anyone happens to have notes of 50, 100, 200 or 500 Euro, just send them to me. I'll send you a note of 10 EUR back to cover any mail charges
