Though i have dabbled in many things, due to my condition i caan no longer do most of them. I am in the process of selling a Tennor sax which i really enjoy the sound of but can't play any longer. I do like to listen to other instruments but the sax is the one that does it for me. I used to strip down lawn mower engines and amalgamate good parts from 2 broken engines to make a good engine. Woodworking i would enjoy that greatly but unfortunately i can't afford it plus i have no space for the tools ie a workshop. Walking the dog i shall enjoy that once i get my power wheelchair i have also got experience in dog training but no certificates. i used to play pool in the local league and darts too. Now i enjoy my pipes and being on here gaming ps3 and surfing the net. Sorry for the lack of pictures. Here is me with my sax and my dog

I enjoy woodworking, mostly turning. I make tampers, pens, kaleidoscopes, little things that I'll sell to stores for more supply money. I love to garden but am not very good at it for someone who was raised on a farm. I target shoot a fair bit, (long rifles and pistols). When I get bored with that, I'll break out the mountain dulcimer and guitar just to pick at. And I enjoy going out in public with no pants on.

I just read back through this thread and I can't believe I missed this chance to brag about myself.
Professionally, I'm a white hat hacker specializing in database reporting systems. Recreationally, I just freaking love the internet. I'm also a first degree black belt in Choi Kwang Do.
I'm also:
a published author and photographer
an artist
crochet
love music
collect and refinish antiques - mainly Iris & Herringbone depression glassAbove all, though, I'm an avowed and unrepentant bibliophile. If I ran out of room in the house and had to get rid of either the kids or the books, I would have a damn hard time choosing. I normally read a novel (sometimes 2) a day. Every room in the house looks like this:
Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! Wife or no, you are no one's property to be tossed aside. You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.Posted 1 year ago # -

Thought I'd give posting a photo a try. This is my little Fiat X1/9 that I restored. I'm an engineer working in advanced products for the auto industry. I like to read and tinker with cars and lawn mowers and just about anything mechanical.

Nice ride!

Very nice car! You sound like a good person to know.

HI-FI audio,
ooohhhhh, what kind of gear do you have?Posted 1 year ago # -
I've been playing video games since I was seven, and I haven’t stopped. Maybe it's because I found comfort in them when the parents and sister were fighting. But either way, video games have devolved me into the fine fellow I am today.
I played League in a game called Day of Defeat: Source. For those who are not familiar, league play means that each team has rosters and games that you have to be on to play. I spent many a late nights waiting for a European team to get up so that we can play.
But recently, I've taken to playing a game called Hearts of Iron III. The game starts in the year 1936, and you can guide any nation at the time through World War II. That said, history tends to go off kilter and makes playing this game all the more enjoyable. I’ve had games where America invaded South America for supporting the Axis. I’ve had games where Japan supports the American War effort against the Soviet Union, and I’ve had games where Germany spends the whole time being extra friendly to everyone. The game makes you think, because you have to balance a focus on production, research, diplomacy, politics and espionage.
Of course, my world isn't utterly focused on video games. I love reading. Maybe it's because I'm trying to catch up with everyone, due to the fact that I could not read till I was 8. I'll read most anything, though I'd rather read up on history, philosophy, military tactics, Russian fiction, and anything that catches my fancy. And yes, I did say Russian fiction. Leo Tolstoy, writer of 'War and Peace', is an all time favorite. That said, I prefer 'Воскресение' or 'Resurrection.'
I also enjoy just being a nerd and messing with computers.
Now, I've noticed a tendency for this forum to get rather silly.Posted 1 year ago # -

@hobie1dog The Dallaras were pretty cool. My buddy Brian built a replica that is a street/track car that he occasionally lets me wrench on (and less occasionally drive :?). There is an open track day this weekend at Waterford Hills that we might try and hit.
@bambam I'm a baseball fan too. Tigers are doing their best at confounding their fans as to whether they are contenders or pretenders as usual. If we were in the NL central like your Cubs, I think we'd be nearer to the bottom than our lofty, AL Central first place perch.
