Great avatar NDave! Where's Trixie, Pops & Chimchim?

And Racer X? (Unbeknownst to Speed, is his younger brother!)

I make a living with computers. I like building. I like creativity. I like anything with power. Have you guys ever seen a pneumatic potato cannon? Those hairspray combustion jobs don't hold a candle to the muzzle velocity of this:

I like to fish. Sometimes fly r/c planes, but I've been getting bored with it. Got a love for import drag racing. Used to attend the street races religiously. Into import cars. Sound systems. Dirtbikes (even though i've never owned one). I love racing video games too.

Oh yeah, and go kart racing. Don't have them big 125cc race ones but i goto the local indoor track and woop everyone's butt. I'm pretty good at that. Although last time I spun out trying to show off by drifting a corner. I still managed to do my fastest lap ever at the track when I stopped trying to show off. Fun day, but man is it expensive!
 
Holy poop! The vids on this page are awesome!

I love this line:

"While the total range with a full 20 oz. soda bottle is not overly impressive, (only about 300 - 400 yards @ 15 deg. of elevation) it is devistatingly powerful at closer ranges"

ONLY 400 yards!!!! LMAO! I could definately take out my pain in the ass squirels and chipmunks with this thing! hahaha

I just picked up a Gamo air pistol tonight so I could peg those little pricks tomorrow morning. They are starting to take over the flowerbeds and garden!!!!!!

Thanks for the links man!

BTW, I like to go shooting as well. Whoever is coming to the bash can see my Weapon of Pride ;) Ill keep it secret til you guys get here. I have the typical shotgun and .22 decked out Ruger as well. I need to pickup an older mini-14 pre-ban though.
 
I wish they would have had a chrono with them, that would have been awsome to see what it got!! Man that thing was cool, i bet we all could think of some fun things to do with that!!:flamer:
 
When I am not playing with my RCs and computers, I am at work planning ways for some of the world's finest military hardware to go and stomp new mudholes in old enemies. There is nothing quite so satisfying as directing someone to a target and then issuing the KILL order.

Aside from taking my frustrations out on small third world nations, I enjoy Soccer, shooting small critters (squirrels, cats, mocking birds, the neighbor's kids, etc.), woodworking, and any number of other mechanically inclined endeavors. I have an extensive Sci-Fi library and read quite a bit.

I am also working on a dual Masters Degree. Busy, busy, busy...

Wow those "tater gun" websites are wild!!!! That gun on the first website is just too much. Looks like some kinda chemical radioactive thingy.
 
i have turntables, i skateboard, and thats it pretty much besiedsdrive my savage like everyday. and I'm 13
 
poop thats nothing, had a neighbor who was a professional welder, he made a air cumbustion one out of scrap alloy titanium, it was wicked looking. But the power was it all, he had a 200 gallon air comressor he used to fill it. when he would go to launch it, filled the tank up around 550 psi and luanched anything that would fit in side the barral, soda bottles, home made rockets, it would shoot its farthest around 700-1000 yards, farther if he knew the exact distance, but the projectile would get lost after the field ended lol. But it was awesome. Now i wish i had took some pics, damit....

Well, I am too old to do any extreme sports. Played guitar for 30 years but hadda stop do to Carpal Tunnel Syndrome about 7 years ago. Still have a bunch of Strats under my bed though. I hope to one day play again.

For now, I paint with an airbrush. My canvas works are a brutal wake up call to the reality that I am not a freehand artist as much as I am an expressionist (I think it might me a musical background thing). I started painting RC bodies with an airbrush a couple of months ago. I've done 4 of them for my GF and me and 2 for money (some guys at the LHS).

I try watch Toonami every day (I love anime) and I read perhaps too much sci fi. I have exhausted Isaac Asimov, Willaim Gibson, Rudy Rucker, Arthur C. Clarke, Bruce Sterling, and am currently consuming the works of Neil Stephenson (Cryptonomicon ... 1152 pages!!! The ultimate geek book!! Yeah!!).

Now that I'm done with school, I have more time for other things. I used to fly kites a lot. I still have 7 or 8, but I don't get to use them as much as I used to. I golf a lot. Other than that, it's just screwing around on the computer. Chillin with the tv. Cooking. Making candy. That's about it..
 
candyman plays golf - now there's a suprise, lol.

Just kidding bro - u realy fly kites? like the crazy aerobatic ones?
