Fish and go to the cigar store! Try to watch NASCAR, but has too many commercials and BS!

 

I add junk to my website http://www.dynamitedave.com
Go to car shows and drive around looking for rusty junk in peoples backyards.
Work on my new house
Ride my motorcycle around way too fast

 

Spend time with my bride of thirty years, do youth ministry with high school students though the church, attempting to learn how to do pin striping.

 

I eat, sleep, poop....... you know, the usual. Thats what I'm doing when I'm not working on my hot rods.

But, if I had more time, I'd like to landscape around the ranch here. I find cement work refreshing and relaxing (walls, decks, pathways,...) I'd also like to spend more time at the Home Depot, and less time at NAPA.
I like gardening (well, the idea of it anyway) and sustainable living.
Our home is 1/3 powered by solar and wind, and we have greywater mostly hooked up.

 

work on other peoples hot rod.

 

I'm working on a comic strip and it's NOT about cars.

 

I'm a high school multiple handicap teacher.

 

if i'm not at work,i'm in the garage working on HOT RODS and CUSTOMS,,then i make a lil time to drink beer and get on the HAMB,,i usually have to combine the latter two...

i guess that makes me CAR CRAZY!

 

Paint, draw/tattoo, help others with their cars, friends and club brothers alike, read, learn, ask questions, drink beer, play my guitar.
And spend too much time on the internet.

 

Motocross and Fishing

 

Play with my motorcycles.

 

Kinda funny that this has been brought up at this time. I have been thinking that lately it would be pretty nice to have something else on the horizon as a Hobby besides cars and trucks all the time. I really only enjoy acting like a damn fool and making fun of myself and spending money I really don't have to spend on my old cars and truck. I enjoy going to junkyards, and cruise-ins, and spending time with my Grandson, and.......?????? Does this make me a shallow person? Maybe I will take up Skydiving, or Golf, or go back to school, or play tennis or go overseas and join some Tribe of Natives. But Hell, that all costs money too which could be spent on my cars and trucks. I guess that I am shallow, but I LOVE IT!

 

I am a fine artist...I never post my work here because I caused some controversy last time I did...It's not hot rod culture art. My work is next to impossible to document as it is super subtle but here are a few current works.

'Faded Landscape' series






a 'Darkroom Drawing'


detail of above


some older less subtle work

 

I'm a web designer/developer by day and an upright bass player/drunk by night. I get a chance to work on cars on the weekends, and have a hell of a good time doing it.

 

oh I also play guitar in a experimental instrumental post-rock band called Hark! Hark! Hark! and a solo minimalist rock project called A Score For A Drawing, and finally ride Helen my track bike...

 

Antique tractors and farm equipment, we host a small wheat threshing run here each summer.

 

Love to flyfish, watch University of Oklahoma football, travel and day dream. In no particular order and sometimes several at the same time.

 

work like a maniac, try to mountain bike when I can, brew beer, make country hams, shoot guns.

 

play in the dirt/mud/snow/rocks/etc.......

 

I'm a truck driver...I play with my 3 kids as much as I can...I work on cars, hot rods and motorcycles...I am an ametuer sauce maker (soon to be commercial so I can hang up the keys to the Kenworth) I make several Hot Sauces from mild to Mind Blowing Wild and several different BBQ Sauces as well.

 

Im an engineer by day, a Bee keeper on weekends, as well as try to get out in the garden to grow a few vegies, camping, antiques, trying to get a antique store off the ground, getting the house and property the way I want it slowly but surely.

 

I'm the racing promoter for a bicycling team here in Texas. Our race, The Matrix Challenge, is the oldest event of its kind in the state.

Here's a link to some pix from last year's race in Fair Park:

At 66 years old, I play hockey in a 21 and older league. Also, have 6,000 mystery books and 2,600 vinyl LP's. Occasionally I read a book and listen to an album.

 

Woo hoo I do that too

 

I have a family three dogs and a cat. I work for the Charlotte, NC Fox affiliate as the ENG supervisor and broadcast technician. The most important thing of all, lead people to Jesus. Have you been saved?

 

Looks like we have enough to start a Rodders Track Bike Crew..haha

 

Awesome man, I'm a big hockey fan and just started playing again. Feels great! Other than cars, I'm a full time law student, go to the gym, play guitar, target shoot...lots of fun stuff

 

That is quite the layout Desoto. Well done. I remember making plaster molds with my dad in the early eighties for our mountian entrances. We had a blast doing it. thesneakytiki

 

I either hang with the yungins or work on other peoples hot rods.
