 I've got to admit there are some interesting characters on this list.  One
apparent common denominator is the apparent basic need for thrill, be it street
racing, motorcycles, military action, x-cops etc...   and a sub-group of the
engineer types that simply want to build the fastest/coolest/slickest/
"whatever".

Me?, Property Fire Specialist, meaning I do the Cause and Origin investigations,
how did the fire start and where did it start. When the business blows up, burns
down, I get a call in the middle of the night. Quite often I get there before
the fire is out. Once I figure out what went wrong, I get the business back up
and running.  Anybody out there guess what I played with as a kid?     I'll be
doing my homework on automatic and manual op'd fire suppression systems,  maybe
I can add 2 cents..

Any Internal combustion engine, be it marine, motorcycle, cars, I love 'em.
First car? 1965 442, bought with me own hard earned money. First thing Dad
taught me was how to speed shift.  On to motorcycles after the 442 and it has
been cycles ever since. Primarily drag bikes, including a Harley that I used to
thrash at the local drags.  Now its a Ducati 900 Super Sport that will be
running at Maxton next year.  And maybe out west?
