Attributing quotes to Cartman in order to avoid the appearance of flaming and baiting won't work. Remove it.

Added edit: Nevermind, I removed it myself, Carbine15.

I'm a 42 year old male (mentally 82).
Not yet married, but will be in December with a "worthy opponent" who is also a flashaholic.
I work in an insurance company and like flashlights, guns (favorites are Colt Python and Diamondback, Browning 1910, Browning auto .22 and Beretta 950), cars (my Smart Roadster makes me happy) and modern art (pop art).

Kind regards,
Joris

Haven't met any other librarians on here though...

I'm an assistant librarian, if that counts. Not really a flashlight profession, though I often work at the closed stacks, which in our library are in the basement floors. Underground, no windows. Should the power ever fail, there'll be some quality dark down there. No, I didn't touch that switch, wasn't me...

I'm 32, married, one child, currently no dog. My wife thinks my hobbies are "semi-useful".

@bench...boy- I would not have imagined you being a kid still. Haha.

Yea, I try and not tell to many I am still 15 as I feel like they wont want to do selling/trading business with me. I have not screwed up a trade or sell yet, and I dont have plans to do so either in the future.

Maybe most do know my age, I dont know:shrug:.

[Search]

20 year old male.

Full time I work at ******** ******** making munitions for the Military. Explosive rounds and their non-explosive training counterparts. Sorry, can't tell you any more.

Part time I train to be a Reserve Officer. Hoping to be hired for full time work within the next two to three years. In the mean time I just train and luckily, before I turn 21 and become official, get to work under certain circumstances. I get to go hands on if needed, but I don't get a gun obviously.

My hobbies are flashlights, knives, and working out.

Recently engages and expecting a baby in January .. I mean

Well, I can go you one better; I'm 58. I'm a dual career male, with my wife of 37 yrs, 2 sons, and 2 granddaughters. My two careers have been as a Baptist minister and a teacher/educator/administrator in both public school and post-secondary education. Right now I'm just being pastor of the church I've served for 25 years.

My wife says I'm proof you can grow old without growing up!
