so who are all these nutters?
« on: November 10, 2005, 11:13:45 am »
was just thinking that I know very little about everyone on here, apart from we all seem to share the same sense of humour (english spelling)

so if anyone dares to reveal more about themselves here I will follow suit.

Hi, my name is Stingray. I'm a professional slacker. In my spare time I enjoy painting little plastic robots & spaceships, playing endless hours of video games, fishing, building seige weapons, calling Seph names, drinking beer, restoring cars, and taking naps.

edit:
so is this an invitation to post those types of pictures of our selves?

One speedbag shot coming right up...

Would a speedbag shot with two sets of stitches be considered distinct / unique? If so I can provide said pics.

to be a bit more on topic...

My hobbies include arcade games, ATV's, woodworking, tool collecting, and EBAY surfing. Currently I spend my free time holding a 4 month old baby so my wife will not go completely crazy. My job is as an estimator for a precaster in the midwest.

The stitches are to prevent further occurrences of this baby holding / crazy wife phenomenon.

Ground crew for this thing....

basicly we set it up... chuck 16 passengers, 1 pilot and 400 litres of gas in it (note to americans... gas in this case means Propane)
then we let it go.....
Chase it across the countryside for about 1 hour...
then put it all away and take the passengers back to where we took off from.

great fun... keeps you fairly fit... nasty hours though....
summer hours....
3 am alarm...
4 am pick up balloon...
5 am get to launch site...
6 am launch balloon...
7 am balloon lands...
8 am passengers back to launch site...
9 am back to base...
10 am balloon refuelled...
10:30 am - 3 PM Sleeeeeeeep....
3 pm alarm
4 pm load up balloon
5 pm

I think you mean "t3h gay".

Also as an important note, if I catch any of you guys posting speedbags on my photo site, they will be sent to place even more inaccessable than post hell. It might take a while for me to manage to delete a pic with my eyes closed though.

My name is Paul, I'm from Ireland and I'm not, nor have ever been an alcoholic.
Sometimes not being an alcoholic is really difficult. Sometimes I'm drinking and the desire to not pour myself a beverage just gets overwhelming. So much so that most of the time when I try to binge I don't even drink myself to sleep.  :-[
With the help of the kind souls on this forum, I know that I will conquer this terrible affliction. It being a holiday tomorrow, I plan on starting the weekend in 5 hours time and attempting to get completely plastered. Pray for me.
