I not talking about wife and kids. That should be a give in. Besides guns what is your other love or hobby?

Mine is Mustangs and drag racing. No! Not NHRA. Street Cars! NHRA is to much of a business for me, like Nascar.

My love besides guns is also cars, although mine has 4 cyliders, big turbo and allwheel drive.....I tried sooooooo hard to get my plate to say "honk3x" but someone's already got it damnit. Anyone who, uh, drives briskly beside another car on a close course lol, knows what honk 3 times means....I'm sure Mr. Rich knows....

OMG!!! Your all slow and delirious!:D Yes I know the 3 honk.

I do know someone that has a tag that says URFNSLO. I can't believe the state made that tag, but I saw it for myself.

Oh man I was so into playing guitars for along time.....but I haven't picked mine up in probably 2 years.....shame I know...
 
Ok I'm not cool and hip.....what's the 3 honks all about?

Well most street races are from a "Dig" or from a stop. Honk three times is when you start from a rolling start, 50 or so, and go on the third honk...:cool:
Edit: on a closed course in Mexico, of course...

It's when your street racing in Mexico(because street racing is illegal in the US). Two cars line up on a roll honk 3x and go.

Hey wait a minute!! You're a LEO I see what your doing, I'm not telling on myself. You know what 3 honks is.:D
 
Airplanes, flying, motorcycles and dogs! I have owned 30-40many airplanes in my life, ranging from a Stearman biplane to a Cessna 421, including three Harvard MK-4s (Canadian built T-6s), and restored quite a few, as well. In fact, I owned 9 different planes at one time on the late '80s. Yes, I am nuts about airplanes, and have over 5,000 hours pilot in command. I held a pilot certificate before I had a drivers license. I now have one airplane, a 1959 Cessna 310C, which I have owned for about 13-14 years. Probably my last airplane, but pretty much my favorite. I love the freedom of flying and the challenge offered by a "hot" airplane. I have done a bit of professional flying, but not much, as it seems to turn a passion into a job.

I rode motorcycles when I was a kid, but stopped in the mid-70s. Got back into it in 2003,bought a Honda 750 ACE, and proceeded to modify it. I bought a new HD Electra Glide on Valentines day, 2006. Interesting how one's outlook changes over time, when I was young, we built choppers from former police Harleys (actually built them, you couldn't buy custom parts and bolt them on back then, you fabricated everything). The thought of a windshield on a bike was distasteful, and saddlebags were positively repugnant! Now, windshield and bags are on the bikes at all times, and the fairing on the Glide is awfully nice.

Dogs, well, what can I say? They are what people should be like - honest, loyal, and courageous. They are great nurses, as well. I am currently laid up with a broken ankle, and my Papillon refuses to leave my side.

Anyway, those, along with guns, comprise my passions in life, and the cause of my ever-diminishing bank balance.
 
I am an avid clay shooter. Besides guns though golf is my passion. There is nothing like being out on the course and thinking about nothing else but the next hole or the next shot. No matter what it is in life good or bad it all goes away when playing golf. My buddy and I laugh when our wives ask us what we talk about when playing.
They would think things like "can you believe she did that?" or my wife this, my wife that". Hell no. "What do you think, 160 yards?" "Yeah I'm thinking 7 iron". Ahhh the joy of golf.
 
The few weekends I have nothing else to do (aka not working, working on the house, volunteering at a military museum or visiting family out of state) its golf for me. That is why I love 'sporting clays' its the best of both world... though now I need to get a good shot gun to stop renting...
