Either go fishing, dog park, or chill by a lake or somewhere more nature oriented.

Home theater/music and driving.

I honestly think this deluge of information that we are exposed ala the Internet is too much for the human mind.
 

When the weather's nice, I bike to and from work. It gives me an hour each way of enjoying my commute from a whole different point of view.

can't remember the last time I was cut off from everything. Between the amount of info flowing through at work and being attached to the Blackberry after work, makes it a bit difficult.

Why would you want to retreat?! Technology is your friend (and mine). Embrace it my friend.

I live by a pretty big lake so I go out and night and sit at the end of the pier, all you can see if the lights of the cities on the other side, the breeze comming of the lake and the waves hitting the rocks. awsome place
