City guy buys a hobby farm, with the farm comes 3 female pigs. He finds out the farmer up the road has a prize boar pig and he thinks if I can get the farmers male pig to fix them up he can make a lot of money. He goes up the road and asks the farmer if he can get his prize male pig to fix up these ...

It took me longer to build the theater than it took to build the house.
130+" screen, 7.1, 2k watts, sub plays well below 20hz and lots of acoustic damping.
The only task that was "farmed out" was the seating upholstery.

Man how I wish I had a space like that.
My "hobby room" is a 30x40 inch table sat in the corner of the room. I definitely gotta do something about that.

I was touring Facebook and Andy (yes, that Andy) posted this beautiful pup needed to be rescued. So I tortured over it (we havent had a pet in nearly 20 years) and went to pick her up. A lovely Husky (I think a little Malamute mixed in) with gorgeous crystal blue eyes. She hopped right into the back...

Brian, 42 years old from Northern California. Always wanted to get into RC when I was young, could never seem to afford it then. Now I can, and am having a blast. I'm a mechanic/fabricator, so doing it at scale is fun for me. My collection includes a Kyosho Dirt Road 10, RC10T, RC10GTE, B3, Stampede...

I was a bigger fan of Big Lizard in My Backyard than Beelzabubba, but all they did in that era was just good ol' fun rock / punk!! :...

My nephew and I ran into Ryan Fireball Martin.

Korean mandated quarantine day 11/14. I am about to Daffy Duck myself over the horizon.... Anyhow, here's a pic off the back deck. Air quality was actually really good today. There are days when I can't even see the buildings over there.
