Playing with my grandson....Collecting M.Jordan stuff...And next to discus my biggest hobby is our cars...I have been "into " cars since I was old enough to read all the car mags.We currently have 3 in the garage,wating for the dam snow to go away...4 more inches last nite....we have a 39 chev street rod,49 Hudson and a 71 chev chevelle convt.,which I drag race a few time a yr against other car clubs.Also enjoy going to drag races,we just got in last nite from Las Vegas,where we went with 5 other couples for the races,which wrer great and while we were there we also got to go to dinner with our discus friends Steve and Marci Warner

    Hi all ,

    Besides being an avid flyfisherman and always combing Simply for advice (this board rocks) I paint houses and cut hair as a side job . I did that for over 20 years and just got burnt on it (my wife loves the fact that she hasn't paid for a cut in over 10 years LOL).

    Hey Mench, I'm going to Englishtown for the Mopar parts Nats . been doing that since 71 ! Besides loving my fishies , there is nothing better than nitro in the air !

    I run my own graphic art business from home. I mainly do advertisements for one large advertising company and a few other smaller freelance things, like business cards etc. Keeps me very busy - too busy in fact. I have 7 fish tanks too and 1 cat so never a dull moment here. I spend alot of time on the weekends scouring round the aquarium shops while my boyfriends at work (hes a bookmaker on the horse racing on saturdays) and i rarely walk out of a fish shop empty handed. By they way brewmaster, i have a red devil as well as my discus and other fish and didnt know about simply cichlids till just know. Im joing up there tomorrow! Wish id heard about simplycichlids sooner. See you there!
