Changes

When I'm online, which is usually every evening for a couple of hours or so, my "internet hobby" is researching cars and vehicles from movies and TV, such as the Mad Max vehicles and the Batman vehicles.  Offline, some of the things I enjoy doing are artwork, mostly drawing with pen and ink, working on my classic '73 Volkswagen Bug, and helping my girlfriend with her linedance class/deejay business.  A fun little sideline is mixing together some of my vast array of sound effects to form funny sound clips featuring different movie quotes and music.

Also, I am an avid ferroequinologist.  (Wha ......?)  For those of you who are wondering what the heck that means, it's very easy: "ferro-" = iron, "-equine-" = horse, "-ologist" = one who studies.  Literal translation: "one who studies the iron horse", commonly known as "trains". (See?  And you thought I was making this up ..........)  I am a model train enthusiast, with a rather large collection of different-scale trains.  My current project is an N-scale layout in a glass-toppped coffee table, and an HO-scale loop runs around the upper half of my room.  If anyone is interested, I can post a few pictures of my collection of N and HO scale trains.

On June 22, 2006, my 38th birthday, I joined the Robot Arena forums - if you're bothering to pay attention to the numbers, that makes me 39 - but I had actually found the game approximately six months previous to finding the forums and signing up.  Previous to that, I was playing other computer games, mostly racing and demolition derby games, rollercoaster construction games, and pinball games.  To date, I have something like twenty  different racing games, four different rollercoaster games, and twelve different pinball tables to choose from, so I'm never bored when I rev up my computers!  Those make up a large portion of my game interests, as well as constructing little robots that beat the bejesus out of other robots, of course .....
