I'm 26, and a third/fourth year Mechanical Engineering student at the U of Manitoba. I screwed around quite a bit after high school and messed my life up pretty good (drug and legal related matters).

However, I've been clean since March 2003, when I returned to university, and am pulling off straight A's.

I don't intend to live in order to work, but rather to work in order to live. There's too many other things to experience and enjoy, instead of being a complete slave to the allmighty dollar.

I LOVE working on my car. I sometimes find myself quite far behind in my courses because I get swept away in it and this forum.

There should be a nerd emoticon, with glasses with tape in the middle.

Well, every night my accomplice and I try to take over the world.

Summertime:
# I once did a 24 mile hike (10 miles without water) and besides the major dehydration, I thought it was so freakin' fun
# When the rivers dry up, it's so fun to boulder up the dry riverbed
# Definitely camping
# Down at the canyon there's some amazingly clean waterholes to swim in
# Workin' on the MX-3's!

Wintertime:
# Guitar Hero Time!
# Caving
# Hibernating

Hate winter. I thought I liked it until I moved to tennessee, then I realized, I hate winter.

I also love to collect old video games. I'm talking about, still-in-original-boxes nintendo, got a genesis/super nintendo new in box, it's probably the most nerdiest collection one's ever seen.
I still love to plug in the old super nintendo and rock out some mario all-stars on the 10 foot projector. It's like my childhood dream come true: lifesize mario!

I just wanted to know what caving meant?? From what it looks like, you like birthing calves. But I am pretty sure you don't mean that?

...haha aint that the truth

hmmm...Hobbies?

I love working part time at a performance/speed/rotary shop (learning as much as I can) so between that and my full-time job, looking to buy a home and sleeping...I like to do the things below:
Car shows, paintball, an addiction to MX-3.com, ebay, craigslist, and clubprotege (which I am on everyday)
Most recently I have been going indoor go-karting. Driving in general, and once / if ever my mx-3 is done (and/or my rx-7) I would like to try drag-racing, auto-X, HPDE, track days etc... (the MOCA guys pictures and talk make it sound very fun to do/learn).

[fowljesse]

I knew this would be interesting, and I'm impressed. I wish I could put us all together for a show.

I used to be an adrenaline junkie, but almost dying wasn't worth it anymore when I got stuck between rocks @ the bottom of a waterfall last year.
To keep from getting boring, I'll just list a couple of my recent favorite hobbies.
DJing '80s dance music (I started a club on "the strip" in Waikiki), and promoted/ invested in a fetish club there, too, called "Dungeon" that was world known, and had celebrities show up (even mini-me!).
Mixed Martial arts prize fighting. I have a pretty good record, even though they put me up against locals that were out of my class.
Racing bicycles down ski slopes in the summer.
Swing dancing/ teaching.
Played drums in a few bands, including a prolific Jump Blues band
Going to Burning Man, and doing things most poeple would not believe (and some don't even after seeing evidence) http://www.burningman.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
etc..
Here is what I'm mostly into now, and pays the bills:

There's no trick. I just pick them up

I built the bed o' nails myself, without any idea how to do it.
It hurts
We practice 2x a week, and perform about once a week, on average.
We got to do a private party with the Beastie Boys, and some big events.
Pics don't do it justice. We have vidoes on YouTube, and our site http://www.kazum.org" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
I of course like tinkering with the MX-3's and restoring an SL series Mercedes that I'm selling when it's done in a few months.

I do the... third definition.

I'm 24 and I'm Quality Control Inspector for nuclear / petrochemical pressure vessels. Beside thinking crazing ideas for the mx-3 (like gull wing doors), I enjoy building pretty much anything. I usually get beckoned for welding jobs by my friends (porsche exhaust). I also try to keep myself busy with learning new skills, sketching new ideas, and reading up on new engineering feats that our world has come up with. I am glad winter's amost over so I can do some rock climbing, blading, weapon combat practice, car shows, the track. I hope to get to an mx-3 meet this year. Well I guess that's it. *Keep our rides alive*

Now I have fish.
