  1. Looks good man. I like to build stuff and restore things also. Tis fun! This is a guitar cab 2x12 that I designed and built. (if you go to the begining of the bucket you can see the build process etc and materials used)

    I recently added a grill over the speakers (grill cloth is removable!) so that when I record I can see the speakers and get a better idea of where to start with mic placement etc.(to keep from poking holes in it with the mic getting bumped, or while traveling haha)

  2. Fuck you're a tall drink of water, aren't you?

    Yeah its hard to translate over the net in pics until you see me next to someone! lol. The funny part is, the other band I play with, two of the guys are taller than me. (one is 6' 4" and one is 6' 5") I'm 6' 3".

    He's got a nice collection of t-shirts, I'll give him that.

    Thanks man!! I have some weird ones haha


  3. Did you train? Tae Kwon Do?

    DO YOU EVEN TRAIN BRO!?? That made me smile :)

    I have trained in a few different styles over the years. Muay Thai, BJJ, Judo and some TKD. We used to have contests on who could kick the highest with either a hop wheel, turn hook kick or crescent kick. (all of those are tkd stuff) But in a fight or self protection situation I doubt I'd ever use anything like that. More into a brute force style of attack like a thai kick or knee/elbow, or just plain old foot jabs/front kicks. The spin kicks are fun though, and look kinda cool.


  4. Thanks man, that M3 has been a great car so far. I've only had one problem with it and it was scary but super easy to fix. Was an oil leak, but it came from a bolt on part that the washer failed on. I fixed it myself. (although I almost shat myself after noticing it was a huge oil leak - immediately thought cracked block)

    You've got the E46 M3, good choice. I dislike the look of the newer model M3's.

    I take it you live in the States too? As to run an M3 as a daily over here in the UK is pricey. I looked into buying and running one, way too pricey and fuel thirsty for my budget so i ended up settling with a 330 Ci M-Sport. 100bhp less then the M3 but certainly still fun to drive.

    oh.. and HAS to be in manual.

    I agree about the new body styles. I never liked the new ones after the e46. It does eat gas a little but considering the performance its pretty reasonable. Definitely one of the best driving cars I've ever owned. I was running with a Ferrari on a really curvy road (was a 458) and he couldnt lose me at all. We hit the highway and he disappeared tho lol. I have nothing bad to say at all about the e46 M3. GREAT car for sure, and if you own one youll love it.

    Working on it can be interesting lol.

  5. Do you plant a bunch of flowers around your place so you have things to take pictures of, or is gardening your true calling?

    I do love gardening! It is true. I even built (and hand dug) a stone retaining wall. It keeps me in shape lol. Sometimes my friends give me shit about it because I do all of my own yard work and my gfs and my moms. Its pretty crazy but someone has to do it and it's better than jogging :D

    I love the beetle on the red petal. I have some awesome hummingbird photos too.

    Nice! Your feeder is much cooler than mine too. (mines very generic)


  6. @ Dup Very cool man! The sepia works really well with those images also. I've used some "real" filters before but for most stuff I do after shooting these days. (although I do have some weird glass filters that sit in my bag)

    @ Cyantist Thanks! I took a shit ton of those style images up in Ohio. That one was in Defiance Ohio. I found 2 more nice abandoned farm houses while up there. (perfect bowl smoking places lol)

    Here is one from the yard yesterday.
