Name: Sean B.
Nickname: People who have meet me through forums call me LSD. Most other people call me Pastor or Preacher.
Job stuff: The culmination of my job history is unbelievable. Joined the Army in 2001 as an IT Specialist. Served 3 years in Germany, 3 in the Pentagon. Got out and started working as a contractor for a government contractor (agency is classified). Got recalled into the Army, played in the sandbox for a bit. Attached to the 142nd Military Intelligence Battalion, where I learned some pretty impressive skills (absolutely useless to my field though)

Came back and got in a huge legal battle with my company since they refused to give my job back. After some time, I ened up being forced to move to Quantico MCB, where I work with another agency (not classified, but not really internet spread info, ask me in person).

I am also a licensed pastor (hence the nickname).


AND I am also co-owner (with my wife) of Mystic Ice Gelato (MIG). Gelato is Italy's version of Ice Cream. MIG is more of an community service than a business, but I put my house on it. So I can only hope that it doesn't fail. On the weekends at 7PM, we put a twist on the business by turning it into a night club for the youth-mid 30s. Pretty much a safe haven for anyone that can't or doesn't want to get wasted every weekend.


Hobbie/Side monies:

Also on the side, I build performance gaming computers, as well as design and engineer home theater systems. Here is the last one I built; totally from scratch. It currently runs the audio/video system at MIG.


I can also build audio/video security systems for home or business. I had two clients (businesses) ask me to build one for them, but back out due to lack of funds.

When it comes to cars, I can pretty much do anything except rebuild transmissions/differentials. Checkout my DSM below.

I used to LOOOOOVE going to the gym, but with all the job crap going on, I lost the time and now, I'm just lazy.

Last hobby. I love playing bass, but it's been a minute.


Car(s):
1992 Plymouth Laser RS (AWD)



Last shop/person who tuned it (from previous owner), diasabled the knock sensor for WHATEVER reason.
When I retuned it, I blew the motor because I was reading 0 knock.



Disassembled in the garage.


There is a LOOOOOOOOONG story about the machine work, but it finally ended in the hands of CNC Engine Dynamics. For now on they will be the ONLY machine shop I will EVER use. Everything else I do myself.

They even offered to assemble the bottom end if I market for them. I really didn't want them to, but I am really glad I let them.



This is how it currently stands the motor is about 90% complete. I just need little things like a new timing belt cover a few adapters here and there. I'm finishing the build in my living room.


Wife's Car:
2007 Hyundai Sonata SE
Mods: Body wrap, HID head lights, fog lights, chrome turn bulbs. Rims/Tires. Nothing big.



Daily Driver:
1997 Subaru Legacy Outback Limited (stock and lame)
