JD actually got me my start in the "biz" as we call it. I still try to emulate his style as he is both an inspiration, and a mentor...
This photo features a young Johnny Danger, relaxing at the end of a long day behind the lense.

Ah yes. Back in the good old days when woman had hair in the right place and no tattoos!

Again I say, as said to many a new boxster owner, without photos it isn't real!

Unfortunately, most of the Bunnies that I knew are now in assisted living.

No, my girlfriend actively encourages me in my Porsche follies. I'm originally from Nanaimo, Rick in Duncan!

I guess you're the only two with understanding wife's, because mine sure doesn't.

Me too. My wife is awesome. How awesome? She just nods "sure" when I ask if its ok to buy a spare engine so I won't miss any races when the engine in my car now blows up.

Yeah, she's "having a spare Porsche engine is a normal thing" kind of awesome.

Ditto... my wife just rolls her eyes in amusement when I get all excited about a new part or whatever (particularly if I got a good deal) she enjoys the car, and let’s me be me...

Me too! My wife is also a driver that appreciates cars. Her DD is an Audi S5 cab. We autocrossed together in the 80s, took the Bondurant 3 day HPDE class together in 2015 and did a half day together at Exotics Racing in 2016 (570s and F430F1). Just consulted with her when I was having trouble deciding on color choices for our 986’s Rennline fire extinguisher and mount.

Veterinarian. The dog I am "abusing" in the photo is mine. His name is Jake, and he's wearing a goofy shark costume designed for cats (the 'ear holes' are actually for the cat's front legs!) I only left it on him long enough to shoot a couple of pics---he was a good sport about the whole thing...

Way cool!

My wife and I are both "dog people". We are now on our third Rhodesian Ridgeback. Great breed.

I'll post pics of her (the roadie) in the Boxster soon. My wife is jealous because Rush has more seat time in the Boxster than she does.

Say hi to the Danger Dogs - Ruby and Pearl. They were in service with the Khazikastan Secret Police before I rescued them.

Those are two serious looking buddies JD. LOLLL so funny! You clearly disturbed them whatever they were doing there.

Frodo - own a pair of working dogs (Rotties; J.J. 56kg & Thor 52kg). Live in/out doors and has their own dedicated room inside the house. Huge (hugeeee) hobby for all 3 of us! Thanks for giving some of time to those little ones
