Love this thread and need to change some answers 8 years later.

@izzyandsue top 5 recommended books. I listen to audible all the time.

 

[izzyandsue]

All of them.
Well, what are you looking for? I change all the time depending on my menopaustic feelings. Range from comedy, to sci-fi, to hard core textbooks, to history, to science/math/stats, inspirational, business, bios, etc. I have favorites by categories. Now, the Art of Driving in the Rain I have listened to many times and never gets old.

Your career, love it or hate it? It has good days, and bad days, and going half mad days

Hidden secret talent? I can remember in great detail events in my life, both positive and negative.

I dont like to brag BUT I do have a gorgeous inside and out girlfriend.

Weapon of Choice: Diplomacy

Best beer to have on hand if I show up would be IPAs- preferably from any brewery in CLT except OMB. Yes, I know they rarely brew them.

Engine work, body work or electrical work? Hmmm... still a grasshopper, trying to learn a little of each

Ultimate Landcruiser would be Turbodiesel Prado with a five speed LHD or a UN Spec 80- but with a full instrument panel and 5 speed.

Best 'upgrade/mod' you personally did ? The HDJ-80 is beginning its teardown for the conversion to Overland- tune in for further details.
