I guess I will second. I am Doug also known as IowaEagle and I own along with a couple other guys a little website and AMC Club called the AMC Eagle Nest.
Currently I own, much to the chagrin of my wife, a 1980 AMC Concord DL 4 door and a 1982 AMC Eagle SX/4 Sport. I want more but refer back to wife's displeasure but I am working on that.
I coordinate one of our State's four Elder Abuse Prevention/Intervention units so if I come to your home it may not be pleasant. My wife is a 4th grade teacher and she wonders why on most days. We have two adult children (well chronologically adults). Nathan who is a policeman and soon to be married and Andrea who works in Long Term Care and who is still looking for a rich guy as she is tired of all the local yokels. Of the two my daughter is the car nut although she does own a new Honda Civic -- but she is entitled to her mistakes.
Besides ticking my wife off with AMC stuff I also dabble in Model Railroading and lately fixtig almost anything to do with water in my house.

Ah, why not..... I'm Nate, I'm 24 and no family of my own (yet), I'm a former baseball player and hoodlam. I've been in the Marines since October of 2001. (Yes, right after 9-11 :(: ) I used to be into a lot of very bad things, like drugs and other things that are worse and I'm not proud of. Which played a big part in me deciding to clean myself up. (it worked)
I used to collect Hot Wheels, and Eartl's 1/18 scale muscle cars, I don't do much collecting anymore but I still have relatives that think I do. 111!!! I'm also a bowler (beer drinking sport :!: ) I was also fortunate enough to play with and against a major league baseball player when I was in my first year of collage. He's the current 1st baseman for the A's, Dan Johnson.
I got into cars when I was about 3 when dad made me honorary tool fetcher. I've been hooked ever since. :t: Cars the family has gone through are 64 GTO, 64 GTO convert, 64 Tempest, 66 Bonneville, 67 Bonneville, 70 Mark Donohue Javelin, 71 Lemans wagon, 72 Firebird, 75 Trans AM, 79 Trans AM, 78 Qtrack Cherokee Chief, 77 SS454 El Camino, 82 401 Cherokee, 83 J10 and we still have these... 78 Levi's Honcho, 71 Z code 4spd AMX, and 66 Grand Prix. Dad is a Pontiac guy at heart but has all the respect and love for AMC's too. And he's always been a FSJ nut.
I currently own 4 vehicles, a 69 AMX, 70 Javelin, 96 F-250 deisel, and an 82 FS Cherokee. My plans after my end of service this October are to go to school at Wyotech and eventually move into a garage with a house attached. :t:

I'm pretty sure I won't get the chance to ride on a C-17, on the way out I rode commercial, then bus then C-130, then CH-46. :(: But hey, I still might ride on one. :t: The C-130 was horrible, it was the middle of Aug and it was a least 140 on the plane and the a/c didn't work! We were wearing all our gear too, I think I lost 10 pounds on that 45 min flight! :shock:

Yeah right ... until the APR valve fails, then you have to force land in Madrid for an overnight ... OH Wait!!! That was the C-5 where we (me and the crew) wrapped Gigi in jackets and netting to keep her warm 111!!!

thats why the c-17 is called a cadillac and the c-5 a piece of sh*t :mrgreen:
