"Team Member" for Hobby People in Fountain Valley part-time, should become supervisor any time now.

Full time student at UCI (University of California, Irvine [AKA University of Chinese Immigrants]). Sophomore (junior by credits) majoring in both aerospace and mechanical engineering. I've already got all the design units I need to graduate, but sadly they don't count because I'm not a senior.

I would preferably go into aerospace, and have mechanical engineering as a sort of backup. Anyways, this double major is relatively easy to achieve at UCI.

Maybe you can help me finally put an end to Finnster's midget beating regime... I need friends with the same devotion to the little people.

I'm 29. I was a teacher(Bethune Elementary School for Performing Arts)and a Professor(Florida International University)....But I started making more money as a DJ/MC on the weekends....so thats what I do full time now.

sad huh? I can make more money as a DJ/MC than I did working two jobs in education.

This is fun!
I am 35 years old, and an insurance agent that specializes in personal insurance and some small commercial insurance. Personal Insurance is mainly home, autos, etc. I work at a great local agency that is very community involved, and has a great owner to work with. I am also a dad to a great 16 year old step daughter, and an awesome son that is almost 3˝ years old. I can’t wait until he is old enough to drive RCs with me!

I am a graphic designer. I mainly do branding and design for Giant Bicycles and Burton Snowboards (not a bad gig). Currently work at a design studio in Burlington, Vermont. If you are looking for any type of design or branding, check my site: pod225.com


Wish I was independently wealthy and could be a full-time rc'er. Haha.

Hey tedo, you have some great stuff on that site. Very cool.

Chachi, who says your 3.5 yr old is too young for R/C? I've been letting my 4 yr old daughter drive my trucks for a couple of years now. Sure stuff gets broken, but half the fun is fixing it!

She's getting much better by the way. She loves my crawlers. She even has a crawler of her own! :-)


He's down by the river ... walking on water.

I'm 32 with 5 awesome kids. Own a cleaning company.

MetalMan, that's a great program you're in there. My dad was a professor at UCI and I went to Uni high while living on the campus in faculty housing.

Thanks kulangflow. I may start soon with some kind of little toy RC to get him going, and then do to something a little faster as he grows. The crawler idea is great. Speed doesn't matter with those!
