I have been collecting since '94. I have collected pretty much everything for a time, while trying to figure out what I really liked. After 14 years, it's come down to black walls and a few newer castings...VW Drag Bug, VW Drag Truck, Dairy Delivery, Boneshaker and Go Karts. I also dabble in GMC Motorhomes, Hiway Haulers, Super Vans as well as the 80s real riders and the 1989/90 Mini/Micro Hotwheels.

CMOS Layout Designer. I am basically a "gun for hire", selling my layout skills to the company with the biggest paycheck offer. This means that I must travel a bit to stay employed, but I now have been doing the long enough that I usually get to pick my locations...Ft. Collins, CO., Austin, TX., Phoenix, AZ. and San Diego, CA. being the only places I want to work for now.

I practice billiards and chess, though I'm at best average at both. I enjoy driving my Corvette and now that it's past warranty, am seriously considering doing some major modifications to it. I also have started dabbling in Hotwheels customs, though I'm even worse at it than I am at chess and billiards.
