I definately know who Rodney is!
I saw him skate as a youngster in Ft. Lauderdale many years ago...
At one time, he was one of the best free-style skaters in the world!
Since you brought up the subject, I'm gonna brag a little about my 9 year old daughter that's been in four competitions in the last year & a half and has placed in the top three in every one. We' in the process of building a half-pipe in the back yard so she can really hone her skills. Oh yea, so I can have a little fun too!

Sorry for going off on a tangent... '<img'>

Good idea! I'm 36,live in central Illinois,married with two children,10 and 8.Avid country music fan(Aaron Tippin).Pro bull riding,bowhunting and dirt track stock car racing are a few of the things I'm into,besides the soda machines.Was in the Marines 87-91,6 months Desert Storm.I got out and came back to Illinois and have been working in a factory that makes ceramic refractories for the steel mill industry,ceramics that they run molten steel through in the steel making process.Dirty job ,but pays pretty good.I'd just like to say these boards are awesome,super helpful.Also,thanks to everyone here that has helped answer some of my questions.A big thanks to Eric at Global Compressors for being so kind to help me out(troubleshooting) after I lost patience and said a few things on here that should'nt have been said(thought the turn around time on repair would be faster).Thanks!

OK.. here's me and my dad on xmas checking out my V63... Pics a bit fuzzy, but my little guy took it.

I'm 35 and work for a family business (just becoming a partner '<img'>) We rebuild steam presses for clothing manufacturers, alteration rooms and dry cleaners. I do some traveling installing machinery around the country for a few major department stores. I went to school for automechanics.. I've got a few addictions (read as hobbies)... I've got a Honda 250x thats worked over and my 2 kids each have quads.. last year I picked up an old Yamaha sled for nothing and I fixed it up for a nice backyard beater. I've got my xbox modded with all kinds of games including my favorite - emulators... I love old school mindless games. You can see the movie screen in the pic... my next project is to build a wall to isolate the movie room.

Hi All,

You will be pleased to know that I am still in one piece, [just]

I have attached an image of The Ginger Prince, taken when
I thought I would be King!.........................someday soon!

Alas it was not to be!.......................well not yet, anyway!

As you can see the image is....... not the most up to date!

I shall post a more recent image as soon as someone shows
me how to get Nasty Mr Coin Mech off my V-81 small coin
machine.

If the pix is attached then I shall post a pix of my latest non
soda ebay auction item, if I have not managed to attach my
pix then I shall be retiring to my floatation chamber

regards

Ginger

Good to put a face with the name, SIGNGUY.
I look forward to meeting you in person soon. In the meantime, if you want to see me, go to the first page of this thread.
Thanks for reviving this Soda Family Photo Album.

Thanks SIGNGUY for posting.  I just got out of radio this past year after working for over 15 in the non-commercial market (rock music, not NPR).  The JACK-FM format is kind of decent, but I don't like the way that it is marketed - I think it makes broadcast radio look bad.  But that's a topic for another day...

I've just had a good look through this post again and it would appear that I never did send a picture.
So here goes. This is me and my youngest on holiday last year. We're at Rippleys Aquarium after just being soaked by some "naughty" flatfish.
