Thats always fun. If you play often, those paintball vest things come in handy. One game i played in, i got shot at least 5 times in the chest and they all bounced off.

I forgot to mention, I also play trumpet and trombone on rare occasions.

I played trumpet but once I realized I had to start practicing to keep up with the 5th grade band, I threw that thing down. That and I'm the pinnacle of white lack of rhythm.

Trumpets one of those things that you loose if you dont practice, which annoys me to no end.

[redsox985]

Ya, I was like woah wait what practice!?!?!? I think im going to declare early retirement.

I have too many to mention here.
Among my favorites is working with exceedingly high voltage...specifically, Tesla coils.
My very first coil produced 250KV (250,000 volts) which utilized an oil burner transformer.
My latest build should produce something around 400,000 volts utilizing a neon sign transformer.
For comparison, automotive ignition typically produces around 50KV (more or less).
Search YOUTUBE or GOOGLE/YAHOO for Tesla coils. Amazing (but deadly) stuff.

That first car is cool but it's so expensive and you can't ride it. And why that fine @$$? I don't see why you added it but I don't mind.
