Re: Who Are You

Speaking of Monte's, used to own a bright green (stock) '74 Landau. Loved that car...just floated down the highway. Only a 350 small...gutless engine for that heavy of a car.

Re: Who Are You

They didn't have that much "go" in stock form, but with a little help :biglaugh:
The 350 I shoehorned into a 76 LUV truck was lots of fun!

Re: Who Are You

OK guess it's my turn...

I live just east of Pittsburgh( big steeler fan):punk:
Been married for 8 years with no kids.

I started a window & gutter cleaning business right out of high school twenty years ago. I'm also in the process of taking over a closet business my father started. It's mostly design & installation of closet shelving in new construction homes.

My hobbies are bowhunting,bowfishing,skiing,scuba diving & of course fast motorcycles!

The pictures are of my wife Amy on vacation & me with the max & our golden (tucker).

How old is tucker? I love retrievers...he looks "wise"
 
Re: Who Are You

Tucker is 10 years old now, starting to get grey in the face as you can see.
He has been a great dog, hope he hangs in there for another 5 more.

My Daughters Jack Russell Terrier Sam is 16 years old now. Deaf and mostly blind, starting to have incontinence, but as sweet as ever and as much a part of the family as my wife who has only been around half as long as the dog.

it's good to keep the wife guessing :)

Re: Who Are You

I think this has been one of the best and most benificial threads ever, I think of all you as my friends so it's nice to put a face with a name and know a little more about each other.

Looks like everyone has some interesting Hobbies, careers and family.

Re: Who Are You

Lets see.

I'm turning 30 a bit later this year. At work I'm titled as a Lan Engineer, but they are about to change the title for some reason. Basicly, I work in one of JPMogran Chases's call centers and I take care of the 1000 workstations, 30 servers and more damn cat5 then I care to mention.

I'm married, have one step daughter, a small heard of cats, and one dog.

Hobbies include computers, VW's (we have 6) and Motorcycles. My wife also rides and aspires to tame the Max some day. I have no doubt she will pull this off.

Pic time. Me on the Max the day I bought it.

Re: Who Are You

Hey Shawn,

I am a little dissapointed your Boat isn't powered by a Vmax. :hmmm:
I do not think the vmax puts out the power like the 200gt.Stock it came with 245hp.Its a V6 2 stroke,loop charged.I've done some work to it too.Its pushing close to 300 hp now.A 500lb boat with a 550lb motor can really haul some ass.It does over 100mph very easily.
 
Re: Who Are You

calimus i think im digging the background in that pumpkin picture! :thumbs up:


LOL, that would be one of my two sisters. She's currently off the market though as is my other sister it would seem. We are just waiting for wedding announcements from both of them. Took them long enough.
