That's a very long name for a porn movie.

I am sure I have posted one or more times in this thread, but here is the current data:
64, retired for 9 years from Federal Civil Service (IRS) and married to the same wonderful woman for 35 years. 3 "kids" (30, 28, 25) that are self supporting and are all with wonderful partners that we love.
69 Westfalia is still my mostly daily driver and the 67 single cab sits in the backyard unused. I like having the single cab but my ability and interest in maintaining it are regressing.
Life has been very very good to us and we are so grateful.

Neat topic that I never knew existed. I'm 35 and I have 2 jobs. By night I operate my own commercial cleaning business, have been doing that since I was 18, definite highs and lows in that industry. During the daylight hours I work with my very good friend at his air-cooled VW repair shop fixing all manor of old air-cooled cars including Porsches. I don't really need to work with him but it's a lot of fun working on all the old VWs.

I'll be 50 in May
I've been a Professional Mechanic for over 25 years
I'm currently a Thermal Technician for Hyundai/Kia . My job has me testing the heating and Air Conditioning systems of our cars prior to (and even after) production.
I get cars 1-2 years before they are released to test. It sounds cooler than it actually is lol.
I used to do a bunch of Star Wars stuff in the past (hence the name and avatar) but not so much nowadays.

Hmmm. I’m almost positive we use (or did use) your stuff at my work. I’m curious now and will check tomorrow haha. You have a SoundCloud or anything for your band? Always looking for new music.

You guys are doing it wrong. I've been 39 for well over decade now. I've got a team of medical professionals working on it, but at this point there seems to be no cure. I'm managing with self-medication.

Maybe I should set up a go-fuck-me acct? Laughing

Interesting. Is Motion the company name or a description of the style?
