My main hobby is opera and everything related to it; CDs, DVDs, blu-rays, Met in HD, Met Opera Radio, Opera News Magazine, several different web sites, etc.
My second hobby is wine. I subscribe to a couple of magazines, patronize a couple of wine stores where I know the owners personally (including having them over for dinner) to taste, chat, and get advice on good buys; have wine tasting events with friends, go to classes about wine, buy books, and travel to wine regions.
Third is gourmet food/cooking/entertaining and gourmet cheeses.
I also am crazy about sports, especially American football, soccer, ice hockey, and college basketball. I have season tickets to the games of two teams and attend several other isolated sports events in my area.
Cinema and literature used to be big interests of mine but lately I've been so busy with the above that I haven't paid much attention to these. After all, the weekend has only two days.
