How much of a Dork are you??
LOL, this is good.
I have External usb drives with gigs of backed up video and internet gold from when Al Gore 1st invented it, haha.
I'm in the software field myself. SQA
Proficient in SQL and familiar with C++, Java, Perl, HTML, Cobol...
Networking, Citrix, Active Direrectory.
Too many things to list.
I get do do everthing from DBA, validating code, and troubleshooting hardware/software.
I used to be the kid who played football, basketball, and soccer. Now I'm the big kid who sits behind a desk and tells developers what they have to fix, lol.

Iam a bowler. I go around to different tourneys and national events and such. Youd be surprised at the amount of money Ive won doing it. Nothing like the pros but hey a few grand is a few grand. People are kinda shocked when I tell them that.
when i started college i was trying to be a mechanical engineer, i got far enough to understand most of the concepts and do pretty much all the math. my dorky hobby is sitting around and redesigning suspension systems to make up for the flaws the factory left behind.
i have a few cool things layed out, coudl get interesting if i ever happen to have a car to work on, a few spare bucks, and a moment of time to myself all at once. so expect some breakthroughs in 32 years when i retire. lol

I have 2 rc10gt's but i havent touched them in forever due to the cost. worst hobby i ever got into. 
Im a HUGE Walt Disney World fan. I like a lot of the animation technology but the theme parks is where its at for me. The engineering that goes into those places is absolutely ridiculous from the audio animatronics to the rides them selves. I can tell you how fast everything goes, when it was built, crowd attendance throughout the year, where to stay, when referbs for rides are going on. A lot of people i know have me plan out there disney vacation for them. Im even on a Walt Disney World forum thats the equivalent of ls1tech.

clean the engine out really good, and replace all the fuel line. The lines go to hell pretty quick, and a small air leak will cause alot of headaches. Also make sure your fuel is new/good... alot of the time with the r/c gas cars the problems stem from old/bad fuel.

Starcraft is crazy....I was gonna try it but I'm not all the good with the micro lol. You ever check out the vids at wcg. In south korea those guys are gods with starcraft. I'm hooked on warcraft....no matter how frustrating it gets I can't put it down lol.
.....back in the late 80's and early 90's, I built a few pretty competitive pulling tractors of the garden -type. They were all rear-engined Gravely's. We traveled around New England, mostly from August to October during country-fair time to different events. Pulled a miniature weight transfer sled on a groomed clay track, very similar to the large truck/tractor variety, only 100' in length. Occasionally we pulled dead weight on a concrete slab. My youngest son drove....I kept the things running. He's got a couple of boxes of trophies down in the basement, won a few bucks, but just like drag racing...never came close to breaking even----but some fun and some great road trips/memories.
