Jetskis, guns, trucks, guns. That about sums it up. Big handgun fan. Have a few AK's, SKS's, peices of an AR-15 etc, etc, etc. I enjoy riding skis on Lake of the Ozarks and anywhere else with a view like Party Cove has.. Toying with my truck comes in next.

well, my wife and kids take up a lot of my time. plus my wife is pregnant again so that is even more time i have to spend with her but i do still enjoy 4 wheeler riding with my kids and such. sold my jet ski so there went the water fun. i do play golf when i can leave work to do it, if not then i don't play. i figure if i am gonna suck at something it might as well be on the gov't's time.

Oh boy... HK USP .40, Glock 17 9mm, Glock 21 .45, Beretta 96FS .40, Beretta 92FS 9mm, Sig P229 .357Sig. I want a Kimber, doesnt matter what kind I want a Kimber. I need to get a revolver of some sort. Friends always give me crap because I have so many semi pistols and no drum guns. I have been looking at 1911's at guns shows alot lately. Just need the financial backing for some more purchases.

I'm a volunteer coach for my 11 yr olds football team currently.I drag race in the summer and snow ski in the winter.Skiing is very relaxing and exhilirating at the same time.I enjoy the beauty of the snow covered mountains as much as hammering down the side of it at 60mph on 2 4-inch wide rails.We take a family vacation to somewhere warm every winter.

My other hobbies/activities include scuba diving, spearfishing, saltwater fishing, watersports and softball. I am only a class away from getting my NAUI DiveMaster and have helped teach classes for the last two years. Since I love the water and summertime is not ideal track weather I have another performance toy I am working on, a 02 SeaDoo RXDI. Just did my first two mods to it this past weekend. 62mph on the water isnt too bad.

62 aint too shabby. At least you didnt get crazy on the actual speed of your ski and say "it does 80!" Rossier Eng. or ADA could take care of any further need for speed! What you got on that Doo??
