Personally, my passions include:

-Working out/Lifting
-Le Parkour
-Krav Maga and other martial arts
-Marksmanship and firearms
-Drawing/Painting
-Psychology and medical related articles
-Reading
-Longboarding
-Picking locks (double wafer/house and car locks being favorites. I don't do this illegally, only if a friend or myself locks their keys in)
-Computers
-Piano
-Fixing things

And literally loads more. I'm a jack of all trades type of man, hahahah.

Nah, I'm not a big fan of traditional sports at all. If it be American football, baseball, etc -- not my cup of tea at all.

I'm an extreme sports type though.

Oh! I do however enjoy hockey. By far the manliest sport out there. I think every guy needs to both:

A. Learn to fight
B. Learn to fight on ice

It's so challenging. You're standing on two blades. On ice. Whilst whaling on a player's face.
One miss step and you go down.

Speaking of which, check out this video. It's my favorite hockey video on Youtube:



Purely insane. This is why I love hockey. You throw a punch in any sport (regardless if it even hits) and you're banned for a season and owe a fine. How lame, eh?

And FYI for those who aren't hockey fans -- the reason they try to pull off each other's jersey's is because if you have yours removed, you're disqualified from the game.

Lol, suspended for the season? The one time i tried playing catcher, the batter let the bat slip out of his hands and into my mask. I wasnt happy. (the other guys team didnt do much in the way of backup. ;) ) Well, i didnt really throw a puch, i shouted at him and shoved him. The ump was about to throw me out, but half my team was out of the dugout at this point, and he didnt wanna call the game on account of that.

Ive never really tried hocky. No ice in oregon, at least not the valley. Every few years we get 4-5 inches of snow, and thats the HUGE snowfalls. School gets cancelled for half an inch, to let the kids enjoy it. Not enough for a snowball fight, sledding, even a stupid snowman, and they think we can find a way to enjoy it. :P

Does your university have a hocky team?

Could you recommend a workout program? I've tried to find stuff on the internet, but if you're to the point where you can pass the navy seals program, i figure your probably better qualified. ;)

Dirt track racing for sure is the top. If your unfamiliar search super late model dirt track racing on you tube. Over 100 MPH on dirt sideways in the turns. Over 900 horsepower.

I also like going to the lake to the ropeswing. And we jump out of a tree that's like 90 feet above the water.

LOL. At 136 years old, I am surprised you have gums to hold those teeth :lol:

As for hockey, I played intramurals in college. When we stepped up to the "checking" league, I discovered the need for leaning in and hitting low. After getting flattened a bunch of times, I enlisted the assistance of a friend. Still not great at it, but it's a lot better than how things started, which was a lot like a bug on a windshield. I remember once running into a guy twice my size, and I basically bounced right off. He might not have felt the hit at all.

Target shooting has been another passion. I've been off for many years, really since getting married and having kids, but now the wife and I are shooting regularly. Back in college, I was very successful in NRA Intercollegiates (Gold Medal Team in Nationals one year), and spent some time one summer at the USOTC for a development camp. I'm not competing now, but I'd sure like to try some tactical competitions - those steel plates sure are a lot bigger than a ten ring, although you do have to draw from a holster.

I think we'll find a lot of RC plane enthusiasts on this forum, and I am no exception. Again, haven't done it since starting a family, but it might be a good time to get the kids interested. Electrics are much more powerful (and inexpensive) than back when I was flying. I was more into helis, having spent a few years as a field rep and competitor for one of the manufacturers.

Another passion is horses, a recent interest shared with one of my daughters. English Hunter Jumper. Not sure how far I'll take it, as this middle aged body doesn't bounce back well from the occasional fall. One thing for sure, jumping horses sure dials in your core balance.

There are a few other hobbies on my list, but this post is turning into a biography and I'm trying to stay anonymous. Those are the majors.

You'd be surprised about the types of messages you get from being a moderator. Especially if you're a female moderator/Admin like Viggi.


Anyways -- send me a message Calvin about what you're wanting to accomplish (and what type of results you want) after the workout program I write for you. Along with your weight, height & body fat percentage. BMI would be good too. Here's some links on figuring out the latter of the two:

Body Fat Percentage

This has both:

Haha, i meant in a threatening way. Ive seen 420s records, remember. Until you became a mod, she had an untouchable amount of karma and profile veiws, just for being a good looking girl. ;) I dont think anyone feels like stalking a middle aged guy tho. ;) i may be wrong. :)

K. I will. :)

Put it this way: Anyone who is demented enough to stalk a middle aged guy is EXACTLY the kind of person that you don't want stalking you. And there are plenty of reasons for someone to want to chase you down. Easiest protection is to have no identity. (I'd say Be Faceless, but someone else already has that identity, err, non-identity.)
