    I enjoy riding 4 wheelers, motor cycles and I use to fly RC airplanes...alot, but my "other addiction" is my biggest money pit....Drag Racing or playing with my race car. I don't get to race it much any more, I just go sit in it and do this! Click on pic!

    Tattooing is a hobby as much as it is a job for me... other than that I am a huge space nerd. I have a small modest telescope that I use to see some pretty neat stuff. I also have rigged up a home made adapter that attaches my camera to the scope. After months of experimenting with different settings, I finally got somewhere with the moon... now I have moved on to trying to capture Jupiter but I really think I just need more powerful equipment for that, although that will not stop me from trying.

    this is just jupiter... it might not look like much but it took me an hour to get it and this was the best of about 45 pics

    i play a lot of poker. not so much the gambling, but i'm into the analytical part. previously i was big into chess, but i haven't played in anything serious in awhile. recently i volunteered myself to take over as president for a school org and its started to consume my freetime and mental clarity. i'm a big sports nut too

    the moon and jupiter pic is pretty neat man
    thanks, that pic is actually kind of a frankenstein photo.... the moon showed up really crisp with the settings one way, and jupiter showed up best with different settings. Both pics were from the same position on the tripid.... chopped them both in half and put them together. It was done in paint, i wouldnt even know where to begin with photoshop or gimp

    oh and i almost forgot... we've been getting really into throwing knives at work lately in our down time... we have a nice back yard with a surplus of plywood and about two dozen throwing knives, add a few bored tattoo artists and a piercer to the mix and it pretty much spells destruction and accidental injury but we are all getting pretty fierce with them there thangs

    I am a big fan of astronomy. I have an 8" reflector on an equatorial mount, solar filter, a bunch of eyepieces and other filters and also rigger up a camera adapter. I also build fullsize football helmets of my favorite teams. I've done the Vikings already and after bout 8 months of research I finally found the correct color of LSU's nike pro combat helmet we wore 2 years ago against Arkansas. It's out for paint now and will be back for me to finish up thurs or fri. Ill post some pics of the vikings helmet tomorrow aand, of corse, the lsu one when finished.

    Motorcycle riding (Harley) , guitar playing (well, beating on it and making noise), RV'n, camping, old movies ( this month is Buster Keaton month on TCM) and trying to stay alive (liver disease). Hoping to get into Gold Prospecting, already have metal detectors.

    Anyone want to go to Fletcher, North Carolina this weekend for Gold and Treasure show? Show is this Sat and Sunday. Looking for someone to ride along motorcycle and camp. If I can find another rider will probably leave here on Thursday.
