Yeah both my wife and I are in the fire and EMS occupations.....we hear it then run it

It may sound boring, but I LOVE doing home improvement projects. I'm 25 and married. While others my age are still clubbin' and drinking themselves silly on the weekends, I'm working on our 52 year old house. I love doing anything that involves electrical/plumbing. I just finished putting some recessed lights in over our front porch outside. Makes for a great look.

What do you guys have? I have a Uniden BCT15, a BR330T, and a RS Pro-96 as my main units. I also have a Pro-2051, Pro-95, and a Pro-97. The 2051 is installed in one of our vehicles, the others sit around 'til 'fire season' hits and radio activity picks up.

I like horseback riding, playing the piano and guitar, hunting, fishing, gardening, writing, welding and woodworking. In the past I played in marching band (should come in handy for USPSA, moving to targets is just like marching) and was a competitive swimmer. I'm also thoroughly addicted to weightlifting.

I'm a man of many trades but a master of none, until I get that DVM.

Other interests? Is porn an interest?

I have an old band saw in the garage from the early 1950's in pieces, I plan on ordering paint that will match its orginal color, cleaning everything up and putting it all back together. I also have a drill press from the 70's some time that needs a good cleaning and perhaps paint. I think that the new tools that you get from HD, Lowes, Sears, etc are crap, particularly the stationary tools. I had rather restore an old tool that was built to last than mess with the new stuff. The other forum that I frequent is Old Woodworking Machinery. Old Woodworking Machines :: Index

Anyone know where I should look around to get first-aid certified? Some friends and I want to take the course together; I shoulda done it a long time ago.

That project just got pushed to the back burner though as my wife was layed off from her job today...grrr.

I've seen a couple of those...very nice. I've always been a fan of the 318ti body with the S54 engine in them.
