I work as a deputy sheriff assigned to the courts as a Bailiff, so my banker hours allows me to hang with the kids, take them shooting (had 2 of 5 and my bro in law 4 kids shooting at once, was fun they had a gas of a time, shot like 500 rounds of 9mm, .40 (duty weapon), 30.06, 22 pistol, 22 rifle and .17 rifle all in one day. not one had to sit in the car for rule violations!), crank on my '64 Chevy pick up (motor needs rebuilt) and my favorite thing is to hang out with my best friend and love of my life, my wife. We love to travel and recently took her to see Elton John in Portland OR for her birthday.

Best of all, she buys me stuff for the truck and appreciates keeping our cars nice and shiny.

Also going to take up hunting this next year, haven't done so since high school and now have the rifles and a 13 yr old boy(my step son) to drag around the hills with his grandpa. Gonna sell my old duty weapon and purchase a deer rifle for him for Christmas. He'll be surprised.

And, I've been known to do some fishing, have about 15 rod/reels in the corner of the living room, half of the adults are the wifes rod/reels, she usually catches a bigger fish than me or my dad which makes him very happy. Each of 5 kids have a fishing pole, tackle boxes and supplies. My wife bought me a new tackle box to carry my river stuff, ocean stuff and lake stuff as well as bass stuff in one handy extremely heavy box. She didn't even gasp when I bought some very nice casting reels at a price I even gasp at, she was "buy them, they are nice and better than cheapy stuff". She even helped me tie some hooks for river fishing, like 200 or so for a salmon run (made some for my dad too) and had a gas of a time. Gotta love her!

When I don't have anything to polish ,I go relief truck driving
This is the company I drive for
Also this truck was the one I was on full time until I gave it up to go



Still love the feeling of driving a big truck with 45 ton sitting under you
Apart from that I restoring my 1937 ford still got a long way to go ,but hay Rome was not built in a day

Cool!! My friend used to do that and I've considered doing it some myself. I have a black belt in Tang Soo Do (a korean martial art), but around here there is a guy that teaches a mix of escrima, judo, and a whole bunch of other martial arts.

What specific arts does your school's style come from? I take it by your description of why your wife doesn't like it, y'all don't use gear when fighting?

I work out at ATT Orlando (you can check them out at Americantopteam.com). They are one of the top MMA schools in the country. Infact, one of our fighters is fighting for UFC Heavyweight title (his name is Jeff Monson) amongst many other pro fighters.

We offer Brazilian Jiu Jitsu/Gracie Jiu Jitsu, wrestling, submission wrestling, Muay Thai, and Boxing. You are free to mix and match any as you please or you can roll them all together into MMA. As far as what gear we use when we spar, it depends. If we are sparring hard and its standup (Muay Thai and/or boxing) then its boxing gloves, shin pads and boxing style head hear), if its grappling, nothing, and if its MMA its just 4 oz openfinger Quano gloves.

Im a senior in highschool so I get lots of sleep during the day, one of my past-times. I'm also into bowling and professional car audio. I compete locally in SQ and SQL events. Eventually I plan to compete in MECA or USACi.

LOL. I guess that was pretty long-winded and cheesy sounding, huh? Sorry 'bout that...

My thing (much to the dismay of my family) is MMA...

I train at a school in Orlando called American Top Team which has several pro fighters (4 who have fought in the UFC and 1 who has fought in Pride). I have been training/doing it for about 4 years, though I have no asperations to fight professionally, its just a hobby. I may enter some submission grappling events just for the fun of it.

My wife hates it because I am constatly sore, beat up, black eyes, swollen face, cuts, ringworm, sore joints, ect....

PS, any UFC fans out there, root for one of our fighters, Luigi Fiorvanti who is making his third fight in the UFC on December 18th and is training hard.

I am currently working in Illustrator and After Effects (computer stuff for design) to make video content for a band that my husband and I formed. I'm flute and he's bass.

Other than that, I plan field trips for the school kids I teach. I love skipping school and trips are the best way to do that.

I also LOVE going to Orlando theme parks. I live in Miami so it's not that far to get there. I have season passes for all parks.

Soon I'm going to buy a '63 bug and restore it and make it look Art Deco style. Gotta get some more $$$$ before I can do that though.

My thing is music.

I've been a drummer for 12 years

Just recently sold my turntables, no time to dj/scratch anymore

And I like photography as well, mainly automotive...




My customers are always happy when I offer a photoshoot after a detail...

Golf. I would give up my car, before I would give up my clubs......

I don't think those clubs are worth $80K. Are they made of unobtainium?

Re: We all love to shine our rides, what else do you like to do???????

When I'm not detailing vehicles, doing school, or working, I'm usually playing piano, doing something with my fish tanks (a 20 G H, a 10 G, and my sister just gave me a 40 G and another 10 G that I haven't set up yet), riding motorcycle, working out, beading, spending time with friends and family, and the list goes on. I also like mountain biking and skiing but don't get many chances to do either of them here in Florida.
