I think Nixon forwarded that one, because Rob's phone started beeping a lot at about 11 pm the other night and I saw him laughigng and then saw him forwarding it on.

So you want the whole sporting world to see you cuss at yourself and throw expensive sticks around?

Oh, sorry. I was applying that to myself.

Somewhere there's got to be a government program that studies the effect side affects of too many lap dances coupled with too many beers. A test subject for that study is the job I want.

Default A job you enjoy

I would apprentice in some very high end restoration facility in sheet metal fabrication. High level of skill to be developed, but also a strong element of artistry. How cool would it be to design and build something like a replacement instrument panel for a Bugatti Royale?

Tom, sounds like you've done exactly what you wanted. Congrats.

Have you had the opportunity to meet Steve Rayjeff? World Champion casting/fly fisherman, guide and I think worked for a rod manufacturer (Fenwick I think).

I would like to be an archeologist. I was a firefighter for thirty years and really loved the fire fighting part. The red tape and putting up with the administration is what finally made me decide to leave.
I always told folks that I fought fire for free. I got paid to take the BS from the desk jockeys.

This might sound stupid, but for the month I had between jobs I was a stay at home Dad. It doesn't pay in cash, but seeing the smile on my daughters face as she got off the school bus, AT HOME, every afternoon was priceless.

I would do exactly what I do now (commercial photography) except I would pick and choose my clients carefully and let the a-holes pound sand. I hate working for jerks just becuase I need the money.

I would like to record demos for new bands, I so enjoy being part of creating the sound of a band while they are still figuring it out.

Either that or drive one of the Monorails at Disneyworld!
