RC Helicopter Fever
I am so nerdy. I have started down the path of the most dorkified hobby ever - RC Helicopters. Far more geeky than planes, less geeky than robots and less glamorous than battlebots, the RC Heli is not for the faint of heart. They can kill you, are incredibly hard to fly and need constant maintenance and take years to master. But, its better than golf, and less pretentious than tennis, which is my other alternative out here in suburbia.

last year i LARPed and at the fair this year I lingered a little too long at the HAM Radio booth, before having an in-depth conversation with the guy at the squaredancing booth.
