Bwahahaha...I loved the comment below that said "This is the real life version of Quagmire." Yes, yes it is. Allllrrriiiiggghhhhttttt.

I like to stand on the corner and tell people how they should talk and interact with each other. It is fun although not a lot of positive responses to it.
Well I looked over the link. Which may not be 100% accurate because anyone can add to it. There were incidents of native Americans shooting children during colonial times. There were children being killed during war time. That doesn't all count. Also many of them were incidents of people not even children at the school. Then you get to the 90's and the incidents triple over what they were. Even in the 2010's which is not even 4 years yet the list was huge. So I would something different happened then just technology letting people kill multiple people at a time. So I would say something else is going on here. Also there have been cases where an armed person stopped deaths from happening yet you don't see it much on the news. Also Detroit and NYC have made guns illegal. Have you murder rates and crime rates there. D.C. is the murder capitol of the world guess what is illegal there? So I am saying making them all illegal will not help.
Volunteer work is my most involving and time consuming hobby, if that is what to call it. I don't do needlework or crafts or painting, anything like that. I'm going to learn bridge this spring if I can fit classes in somewhere. I like interior design and gardening- I just joined a local gardening club. I belong to a women's club that has lots of activities. Oh, and reading, I'm an avid reader and belong to two book clubs. Writer, too. I do various classes and workshops for both personal and professional reasons. I'm a big time traveler. We do a lot with our grand children.
I used to bake and cook a lot, but no baking since surgery, and my husband does most of the cooking now.
I guess walking fast, furious, far and frequently could be considered a hobby, too. I used to run, but my orthopedic guy told me to stop.
I do like keeping busy- it keeps me out of trouble with the eating.

If it helps at all, my husband is a developer who does mobile apps and web back end stuff and he gives lastpass the thumbs up. Any professional geek's vote of confidence was good enough for me, LOL!

I enjoy shooting, but alas I live in an anti-gun state/city, so no carrying a gun in my purse, the ranges are far from my house too so not much practice time. I do want to learn to shoot a bow & arrow, the range might be easier to get to.& it looks really cool too!
