Other than Chameleons, What else have you been addicted to/obsessed with?

seahorses, springtails, whiteworms.

The process involved in preparing foods e.g. mixing herbs and fresh fruit/vegetables

recently dart and tree frogs:confused:

must be something in the water...:cool:

I was totally obsessed with saltwater critters from 2006 to 2010. Totally burned out with saltwater. At one point I had 9 saltwater tanks 3 of which were filled with different seahorses.

My past obsessions were travel and skydiving. I've been to 45 countries and 250 skydives. I'm married now with a little baby so my current, remaining past obsessions are much more tame..Photography, flyfishing, kayaking and hiking

That's how it all starts! I went the first day and ended up doing three jumps that day!

Skydiving is pretty safe these days. People used to die because of equipment failure.. now they die because their equipment is "too good" All the starter stuff is really safe + you have 2 parachutes to rely on always:)

Well, it'll probably take me a while to get round to it - I have a few things on my list now.......also pretty expensive to do, so I certainly won't be able to do 3 at once. But how can you die because your equipment is too good - get complacent and expect it to open itself?

No- Parachutes these days (for the enthusiast) can be made to fly with a super rigid wing to add to the performance of the parachute. You can dive one of these parachutes toward the ground at speeds of 80+miles an hour then pull out at the last moment to turn all of that downward speed into forward speed to "swoop" across your landing area, pond, or whatever.. It looks really cool and feels really cool..There are even swoop contests all over the world. Problem is that if you underestimate just a little bit you might die. And that's how parachutes are too good for the people flying them these days... Ofcourse not everybody who jumps flies them.. just dead people in training.

Regular skydiving is awesome and pretty safe, Just like anything though, people find ways to take it to the extreem.

That's not freaky haunted? I don't know what you mean by 'ghosts', but when you are dead that's your lot, you don't exist anymore (according to sane logic, and according to the Bible too)
 
what am i not obsessed with ? lol

Anything with a motor (cars,bikes,quads).. I dragrace SFWD (Sport Front Wheel Drive). Gets pretty expensive!

I have a StreetCar (1997 Turbocharged Honda Civic) that i drive often.. it made 620whp and is nothing more than a fun toy to go on cruises with.

And i have a RaceCar (1995 Turbocharged Honda Civic) that i compete with.. it made over 844whp, this thing means business.

i'm also into My Family,Animals, fishing and hunting, bmx, stateboarding, wall climbing,dubstep,diving, prettymuch EVERYTHING!!
