I like to get to know people , so what do you have for hobbies ?

When I was young I was into drag racing . Quaker city speedway was a short 20 miles from home .
My first car was a 78 Chevy nova , had a 400 with a 4 speed in it .
Wasn't anything crazy fast 13.70's on a cool day 14.00's on a hot day .
Then I got old enough to go out on my own and couldn't afford that any more .
So I got into antique tractors , had a bunch over the years .
Still have a 46 case sc I play with every now and then .

The last year or so I've gotten into cnc machining . Bought a little tormach to learn on . I have a dream of replacing the manual machines I use to make a living with a haas super mini mill and a st10y lathe someday .
I found it hard to believe that at my age and as a person who still does not use a cell phone , I actually enjoy the cad/cam side of things .

A guy went to see a Dr because his dick was orange the Dr took a look and verified yes it is.
Dr "So how long has it been like this?"
Guy "A couple months."
Dr "Does your girlfriend have this problem also?"
Guy "I don't have a girlfriend."
Dr "Did you pick up someone at a bar and have sex?"
Guy "I don't go out to bars."
Dr "So what do you do when the urge strikes?"
Guy " I just watch some porn and eat Cheeto's."

Awesome.
When I was working I used to (1st) operate and (later) program CNCs and really came to loathe it - because everything is a "bad" program (regardless of horrible CAD modeling and clueless mgmt.), even if you're trying to make dogchit out of diamonds!
Now that I'm not working for idiots I rather enjoy diddling with a cheap 3D printer and MatterControl is a freebie for creations if you can't find something already available.

I enjoy fishing in the colder weather for walleye usually at night (so peaceful) and I've been a drag racing fan for decades.
When my wife and I were younger we'd go to the track and watch her Dad's '64 'Cuda compete as well as video taping the bigger events for promo tapes and a little play money...

You may recognize this guy and realize that' it's been awhile since he ran in the IHRA and we still follow along on NHRA.tv today!
Haven't been to Indy for over ten years I think.
