My recumbant bike that I take on the riding trail. Everyone wants to look at it, talk about it, and I let anyone who wants to take it for a test ride. Never ending conversation starter. Sometimes you can't end it. My fake fur coat. Total strangers comment on how nice it is and then they touch it, basically pet it, multiple times. I don't know what brings that out in people, but it is nice to be petted. My iPhone. This starts a half hour conversation with anyone that sees it and wants to know how it works. My pro grade digital camera. I actually let people hold it, look through the view finder, take some pictures, and look at them on the viewer afterwords. I tell all the chicks that I do professional nude photos and to call me if they want some free shots for their portfolio. I have more takers on this one than rejects. And I really am only after the photos. My wife and I are very happy together. I am trying to get Hugh into this hobby thinking he will meet some great friends this way ...
