At the moment, I've more in common with texasmom, stay at home Dad alongside my wife who is on maternity leave after son number 2 was born. Just finished troubleshooting the sound on this computer until I realised that son number 1 had plugged in the headset, urrrgh. :furious  It's been interesting!!!!. I found for example, that you can cook while holding a baby or with him attached to your leg.

But on my days off from domestic bliss, I'm a skydive pilot, uniquely in this country the only paid skydive pilot at the moment. Well I would be paid if I was flying which in this country at this time of the year is not very often. So I'm pretty broke. I also freelance other flying but with a sinus infection have had to turn down a photo job only this week. Another source of income is as a movie and TV extra and some tiny acting roles, usually as a cop. Not enough of that either.

I think I'll have to get a real job soon. 


you oughtta come over here. every time i'm up, i hear the warning calls from crosskeys airport when they kick the meatcicles out.  :D

seriously.......they seem to skydive year 'round here in new jersey

stac says she is beyond crazy but would not change it for anything :aok

we have a
14 year old girl _ Katrinna Lynna
12 year old girl_ Anastasia Coral
11 year old girl_Ruby Belit
9 year old boy_Khanan Michael
6 year old girl_Izzabella Chloe
3 year old boy_Freeman Elijah Douglas

Plus I have three other kids with 3 other woman, all before my wife.

I don't do to bad as far as money goes, now that the shop is running, I do pretty good, best I have made so far is about $250.00 an hour, not to bad for a guy who was arrested at 10 years old the first time and grew up in Jails, but I have to say it is because of my Wife that it is even possible, with her by my side I can do anything! if she wasn't there I would have probably ended up on FBIs most wanted list.



no successful man is without a good woman by his side....even if she's kicking him in the arsde.......

and with that many girls, it's gonna be YOU going insane....when they start dating.

I have you all beat. I drive a pink and white dump truck. If I can get a photo of it tomorrow I will post it.
Just imagine a Kenworth T-800 with a Colt rock body on it. White all over except the pink flames on the hood and breast cancer ribbons on the rear corners. The boss is not the type of guy you would make fun of for owning this thing.

I wouldn't mind but I think immigration would have something to say about that. :noid In any case the pay is a bit better here. Actually we're starting up again in February. Most of the problems stem from the fact that our field became a bit waterlogged as seen below :cry.
