what are your bf/hubby''s boy toys?

[yssie]

Football.



He's completely, totally, utterly obsessed.



I don't really mind, though. It's fun to watch him having so much fun, and letting him spend sunday evening in front of the TV makes for great bargaining

tell your hubby i love tube amps.

Hehe - DF, a tube amp is what my hubby just got himself for Christmas (Mesa Boogie, don''t know the details), but he loves it!!

AG

ha,ha, that''s what i''m running on my home stereo. about 13 yrs ago Mesa made a tube power amp call ''Baron'' for home stereo. i was fortune enough to buy one of the few (before it was discontinued) that was produced by Mesa. Mesa are well known for making high end guitar amps.

Hubby was thrilled to get this one - he found it secondhand on Craigslist, for about 1/3 of what it would have cost new. It needed a very minor repair, and was then good to go.

I have to confess though, even though I can appreciate the tone, I sometimes get just a *little* sick of listening to practice time

Heavens no, I can''t tell my hubby!! He would be SO jealous, and I would feel cruel!!

He''s been wanting one for a while - scouring CraigsList and everything....

 

[PinkTower]

HIs bicycles. Outside and inside kinds. Also, he loves his spin class.

 

[iluvcarats]

His mountain bike(s), iphone, knives and guns

Awww...poor hubby! Tell him not to lose hope - my hubs found one, so I know it can be done, and I''m sure with the holidays past, there will be a lot of good stuff popping up on Craigslist, eBay, etc...

2 kayaks and all the gear

Corvette

Jeep

My ex was into woodworking. He had the basement full of equipment. I loved the things he made, but I do not miss the house full of sawdust and wood chips and all the constant din and factory noise. Planers, routers, saws, dust collection equipment belong in a workshop, not in the house you are trying to live in. I kept waiting for the house to catch on fire.

 

[So Excited]

CARS and all the paperwork that goes with collectiing them- he usually tries to keep the collection to only 5 due to lack of garage space (there is no way that he would make me park my car outside as we live in WI) and his PS3 is also one of his favorites.

 

[Deactivated member 42515]

Awww atleast he''s kind enough to keep it to a minimum of 5 haha
Oh my... But that means u guys have a 6 car garage??? Wowza!

Woops! Sorry! Double post!

 

[reader]

Mold. Anything that can be bought in large quantities at an auction and stuffed into a car. He loves junk auctions.

 

[Amber St. Clare]

My husband investedin a racehorse of all things!!!

That''s where his off time and disposible income goes!

 

[luv2sparkle]

We''ve had many many motorcyles, and dirt bikes, snowboards, woodworking tools and now it is road and street bikes. He is in a bike club and is doing a
race in March. Canoes, too, big trucks and trailors, and oh yeah, fire trucks.

 

[Erin]

Golf. Latest putters, cart, cart cover, Mizuno irons, custom driver, at least four golf vacations with the boys A YEAR.
I''m what you''d call an intermediate with no real strengths and working on my weaknesses. He''s a 5 handicap. He can drive the ball a country mile with accuracy.

 

[canuk-gal]

HI:

Private golf club membership and all that goes with that.....

hockey equipment

XBox

MB''s

trophy wife

cheers--Sharon

 

[sunnyd]

His xbox, and anything related to the tv.

 

[kittybean]

XBox and related equipment. I really don''t see how he can play it so much!

 

[Bliss]

Tons and tons and tons of electronics!!!

He hides it cleverly by buying toys for ME and getting to play with "my" (HIS) new toys!

He bought me a new netbook, Palm Pre and Kindle in the last month and is getting all sorts of funny things for the Wii.

Ha! I know better! It's really so he can play with it up close and personal. He sure gets a kick out of buying me the latest tech toys. He loves the entertainment system, too. He also loves watches and cars. Boys!

But his favorite toy...is me!

 

[ksinger]

Reasonably fast racing sailboats - J24s, Lasers, 505s. Little British cars - owning and working on them. Guns - collectors'' types. Mechanical watches that he can NOT afford. Sewing machines - we own 5. (No, he doesn''t make my lingerie, he is a sailmaker). Machine tools - lathes, surface grinders. (He''s looking kind of wild and misty as he relates the bit about TOOLS!!!)

 

[4ever]

Laptop, Xbox, dvd collection that we are running out of room for, sound system and tv and his car.

 

[Blackpaw]

Welcome back Whitby

i saw you post on another thread and i wanted to ask if you were back but was shy

and im glad you are back, i hope you stay

 

[Girlrocks]

Several restored and very expensive cars.

 

[gardengloves]

golf things, power tools, electronics and the latest technology- and nautical items.

 

[gardengloves]

DH favorite stores, West Marine and Home Depot, and any golf course within 20 miles

 

[marcy]

20" telescope, souped up F250 diesel, his nerd heaven (2 PC''s, 2 giant monitors with little netbook on the side), PS3, surround sound for his 2 PC''s, IPOD and Kindle.

 

[vip0802]

XBOX 360 and his knife and sword collection.

most of the time i don''t mind him playing XBOX since it means i can hog the computer all night. i even partake in a little Left 4 Dead 2 every now and then with him. something about killing zombies is really satisfying.

however, he lectures me on how we need to invest in these forged kitchen knives so i can finally get rid of my mediocre ones already.
