Tim: Nice to see another Canadian here. I'm originally from Winnipeg (AKA Winterpeg). It's kind of like Calgary, except Calgary is nicer. Winnipeg also has the coldest yearly temperature of any city in the world with population over 600k.

Luckily, I moved to the Gold Coast in Australia 4 years ago. I'm surrounded by beaches and bikinis, in a city with a very high standard of living. No complaints here, I certainly don't miss the snow.

Now, back to the topic... I guess the fact that I specialise in high-end web and graphic design would set me apart. Design is my passion, and my business caters to people and businesses who are willing to pay for the best quality possible, no compromises.

A quick disclaimer: I don't own a Rolex... yet. Going shopping at the AD next week to see what looks good!

I seriously believe that we (see TRF) should stop taking the P#@SS out of JJ be because of his 'alleged' connections with sheep.

Nothing has been confirmed yet.

JJ, I am with you. I know that you have quite a lot of posts under your belt which are well deserved, but I think all these 'tossers' should produce the goods or remain silent.

And, I am not talking about a witness that could be construed as Mutton dressed up as Lamb either.

Just me two cents worth.

When i'm not setting up DP (Dynamic Positioning) systems on ships I enjoy my vintage hifi systems, tubes to be exact, I still have a large collection of 33's and 45's only the older guys here will know what those are.

Some out of the ordinary things that I have done would include:
  • Being a horse dentist, also called "Floating teeth".
  • I was once a Flight Instructor (SEL and MEL)
  • Competed in Power Lifting competitions on a National level.
  • As a kid I had 2 Tarantulas and a Squirrel Monkey for pets.
Now as a 44 year old guy, things are alot tamer Today's big outing is buying gardening supplies at Lowes...

Where are you at?

I always wondered if there were any forum readers in OKC. A get-together would be cool sometime.

I'm northwest. Not too far from the Paseo arts district. I grew up way out northwest, near Mercy hospital. And I don't know of any other OKC folks here.
