51 Configuration Specialist and part time storm chaser. Would give my left nut to be able to reverse that. Any of you business owners want to sponsor some cameras let a fellow know.

Configuration Specialist? Is that like a closet organizer? Just kidding, I'm just pissed you have quit your other job as resident NSFW presenter.

Sorry. I haven't quit. Just had a lot of stuff going on the last few months and haven't been able to give it the attention it deserves. I'm hoping in the next few weeks to be able to get back in the swing of things.

Did you happen to see the story where a big coil of steel came off a truck on the flyover from westbound 565 to southbound 65? No idea how they had it secured, but it apparently wasn't adequate. Fortunately, it didn't hit another vehicle but did some road damage.
I didn’t see it, but I try to avoid those big coils for that reason. It happens a lot more often than it should.

Almost 71 frigging years old. But….I guess it beats a dirt nap. Actually i enjoy retirement and hope I have more years to go. I was a bean counter for a private business that I had a little interest in.

52, I make about $80 per year as a guitar player so I have a real job as a computer engineer.

I always wanted to be an architect or maybe even a city planner, and tried to dabble in being an importer/exporter but had too many fights w/ my wife on whether to focus on the importing or exporting.
So you’re a successful guitar player. Awesome.

50, Technical sales to refinery & petrochem industry. ChemE degree, been in Sales for 25 years.
I had to go to a local plastic surgeon a few years ago to remove a skin cancer. The doctor has a ChemE degree from State and MDs I think from UAB. He's a fantastic doctor and has the neatest stitches I've ever seen. He's older than you but younger than me.
