Other than my MB and diesels in general, I love my computers. Mac's specifically.

Trebuchets. At one time I had built one of the largest trebs in the country. It had almost 6K lbs. of counterweight and would throw a 100 lbs. bucket of concrete about 500 ft. Very impressive. I used to give demonstrations for the local high school physics class.

We have a very diverse crowd. I didn't even know there were collectors of these things.

I used to live in Lutz, not much there. The Winndixie on 41 and Sunset was the local hot spot if that says anything. Very nice Mustang. I had a neighbor there that thought he knew everything about Vets but he couldn't figure out which end of a screwdriver you are supposed to hold.

Gaming, specifically World of Warcraft and Company of Heroes.
Aquariums, both tropical and marine.
And I practically live at a pub. So much so I even had Christmas dinner with the landlady and her family!

"Seth thomas mantle clock" Huh, too bad I'm not closer. I have a dead one which was came from my grandparents. It worked for years then just quit. What does that have too do with Mercedes? Ganndpa had one of those once too
