Well, everyone, it's been a very long time since I've posted on the forum or the RA2Wiki.  I thought I would come on here and catch you all up on what I've been up to in the past couple of years ...

-Got laid off from my job back in 2008, have been running temp jobs ever since (sucks, but I have to pay the bills somehow).  Currently working at the UofA (Univeristy of Arizona), Tucson, AZ.

-Have hooked up with a crew of pocketbike riders here in Tucson, and have been working on various 2-stroke pb's for a while.  I currently own five bikes, an old-school K&S Hornet minibike powered by a 5.5hp engine, a custom-built pocketbike made from scrap metal, and several gopeds.

-I have been volunteering time for the group above, helping to keep fatherless kids off the streets and teach them real-life lessons through pocketbike racing.  For more info, check this site: www.lostboysminimoto.org

-After regretting never learning how to weld for over half my life, I finally decided to do something about it.  Harbor Freight had a little 90-amp MIG welder for sale, and I went down and got it.  Within half an hour, I was welding!  My welds weren't pretty, but with time, they've been improving.  I've been steadily welding for the past two years, building junk metal critters and custom one-off pieces for some of my pocketbikes.  (If you would like to see some of my critters or my collection of pocketbikes, please go here: http://s404.photobucket.com/albums/pp127/SpyGuy/Welding%20And%20Metal%20Art/My%20Welding%20Stuff/)
