    I'm a computer geek in my real life (real-time embedded systems). I teach Jujitsu in my spare time and I'm a volunteer Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) in my spare spare time.

    I do a lot of work with computers, mostly hardware. I build(dangit it, this is machining, oh well) cooling components for them, like waterblocks and stuff.
    I have been wanting to start flying rc, too much money and its all going somewhere else.

    My primary interest is God although you would never guess it by the amount of time I spend on here. Not that this is not a good place to be, its just that I should be out in society more and trying to bring active change instead of been here as much as I am.

    I am a firm believer that the evil that happens in this world can not be controlled by heavy rule enforcement. In order to change the world, you must change the hearts of man. I believe God is the answer.
    Yeh Yeh I hear the scoffers already, "Most wars are to do with religeon" I cant deny that, but I believe a true relationship with God, and not a relationship with a man made religeous belief system is the way. I hope you can see the difference I am speaking about.

    My other interests are trying to start up a sucessful bussiness. I would really love to make a product that would benifit mankind in some way. I dunno, a new and sustainable energy source for example. I gave up dreaming big when I was a kid, these days since I found God, I am not afraid to start dreaming again.

    Also I like doing crappy computer animations etc, as if you all didnt know that.

    I am also trying to make MAME games cabinets as a paying hobby.

    Gee Maybe my kids and wife should have been mentioned earlier than this, but the order is not necesarrily the priority.
    Being outside the square !!!

    Hi All,
    I am a full time machinist working 50hr weeks in the oilfield business. With my limited time off I volunteer for a youth group, U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps. Our primary focus is to give young people 11 - 17 yrs. a "taste" of the military life and see what careers are available to them through the armed forces. It is very rewarding when you have a kid come back to you years later and thank you for making a difference in their life.

    If you look at my sig line you will probably know.

    Like Benny my first priority is my relationship with God. If I don't have that right then nothing else matters. I am totally devoted to my family after my relationship with God.

    I also love 4 part harmony singing, sing a little but listen more. I also hunt fish a little. I love woodworking and the simple beauty of fancy woods from all over the world. One thing I would like to do before I get too old...I had better hurry...I want to build a sports car from concept to finish.

    Mike
    I had to edit this in...I shoot rimfire benchrest too. Hitting a .060" dot at 50 yrds/meters is a blast...pun intended!
    No greater love can a man have than this, that he give his life for a friend.

    Other hobbies: Computers, my '65 Mustang hot rod & tinkering; all dovetailing with the CNC thing. I'm a manufacturing engineer/CNC programmer, so that helps out. Converting a mini-lathe to CNC and later on will convert my new Rong Fu. Keeps me real busy for now. My girlfriend will be moving in here in June, so I'll have less time then.
