Described as being an addictive hobby for the aviation enthusiast, flying mini radio-controlled “RC” helicopters might be the hobby for you.
For entry-level into radio-controlled helicopters, there are units available in ‘big box stores’ generally for under $50.00. These are mini helicopters that can be held in your hand and are safe for indoor flights. Their lightweight construction means that even in the eventuality of collision and crash, nothing gets damaged and the cost factor makes these an affordable option for a recreational RC (radio controlled) toy.

Insanely funny videos, bloopers caught on tape. A supermodel loses her skirt and exposes her barest private region, another supermodel falls down not once but twice and the news anchors try to not laugh about it.

These damn things are two inches in length, and just 20 or 30 of them can obliterate an entire colony of honeybees in a mater of just a few hours! They bite them in two, killing every last honey and then, drink their honey and steal the larvae to take home and feed their own young! A damn scary video of a honeybee hive being attacked is included. I actually feel sorry for the honeybees that are fighting a doomed battle, for it is a veritable massacre!
Controlled burning of grassland and forests to create a healthier recreational area and farming land. This is done during the cooler weather before plants have had time to bud and flower, ridding last years undergrowth, weeds and reducing insects and funguses that cause disease to the trees and forest.

A Stickmen cartoon, and my thoughts about Battlestar Galactica.
A cross between a hare and an antelope, this rare whimsical antlered creature is rarely seen by sober, upstanding citizens. It is elusive and exceedingly fast when frightened and can be extremely dangerous when cornered or provoked. And purportedly to the lucky few whom have taken one in the hunt, they taste just like lobster.
A bizarre and lovable creature of southern Africa, this rodent looks as if it were assembled from spare parts from a quarter-dozen different animal species!
Large bugs that look like a drawn-out cricket with a crayfish thorax and crab-like pinchers? Oh, -its just a MOLE CRICKET! They can be found anywhere except Antarctica and someplaces in the world, mole crickets are fried and served as food for people!
