fractal said:35, married, beautiful 1 year old daughter. I'm a television producer for a major Canadian network. I produce live newscasts. I play the piano and I like learning new things. I'm into meditation, controversial knowledge, reading books and weird things. I got into e-bikes because, yes they're cool and fun, but I hate traffic and riding the bus and paying for gas! When I look at that huge line-up of cars crossing the bridge and there is only one person per car, that really burns me. Anyways, I've learned so many interesting things with this hobby, and I still have a lot to learn. It is very satisfying!!! I have a big thirst for knowledge

This is the first time I have ever seen those two words combined so I have to ask what is 'controversial knowledge'? You have piqued my interest.
fractal said:Hi Joseph, I like reading books about conspiracy theories, UFO's, the illuminati...basically subjects that a lot of people dont want to talk about or think are ridiculous. I just find them fascinating. I call it controversial because every time I bring these subjects to the conversation table in my surroundings, I am rapidly confronted with total denial and the "duck your head in the sand attitude".
Whiplash said:Wow! Very impressive! I love that kind of stuff! I have a small bkgnd in music also but not professionally, just always loved it, play alto and tenor saxophone, drums and a bit of piano. Just enough to appreciate your efforts!
I am 36not father of one beautiful little girl of 9 months, have always been mechanical, graduated from the School of Automotive Machinists, worked on the Infinity Indy program with Eddie Cheever building engines for the IRL, then went to work for a shop in San Diego as head R&D tech designing headers and exhaust systems, then decided it was time to try it myself and opened my own machine shop. Had lots of fun doing this kind of work but never made any real money just cool bragging rights of building things like the fastest street / drag car on the west coast. I then went into construction doing multi million dollar homes until the bottom fell out ofbthe economy ans now I manage the production of a large company local to me that manufactures anti fatigue floor mats for big companies like Honda, GM, and many others both in and outside the US. Nothing as cool as some of you but I have had some fun things to build for sure!
