Here's a bunch of interesting things I did, do, and will do just for the fun of it,
and in no particular order.

Other than playing CD's and MP3's, my musical talents are limited to the guitar.
I used to be into heavy metal only, but nowadays I do more alternative & rock. In this
photo, I'm on the right playing rhythm & lead guitar at a talent show at Nortel, where I
worked at the time. The song was "If you could only see" by Tonic. Audience
was over 500, so that's why I was trying not to look forward. :-) |

A Shelby Cobra I've been painting for my nephews in their playroom. It's much further along
than in this photo, but it's still not complete... need to add some tire smoke and exhaust flames now. |

I'll consider this art. A friend was teaching me photography (with my Canon T-70 35mm SLR), and I captured this
image of the Space Needle in Seattle from Queen Anne Hill. This image has been scanned from an 8x10 photo
so it's lost some quality in the conversion. |

This is the second time (of three times) that I've jumped out of an airplane. This one was in Homestead, FL, which is just
outside of Miami. Fine, I admit I look really stupid with that cone-hat on. :) |

Here's an animation I created on a Commodore Amiga some years ago, while learning
about ray-tracing. It took me a week to layout the wireframe model, 12 days to render, and another
few hours to stitch the animation together. Today's solid-modeling software and faster processors
would make this a 1- or 2-day project. |

How to pimp your ride on a budget. Source unknown, cause I got it in a forwarded email. |

Need to tow 2 cars at once? Here's an efficient way to do it without even renting
a tow truck. I took this photo somewhere in Mississippi or Louisana on I-10 westbound. |

Take my word for it -- don't reheat boiled eggs in a microwave! |
