Well, I love to shoot and fix guns, so I like it. But, the job keeps us instructors busy, 4000 plus folks on this base to train, so no rest for the wicked -Steve

i'm Tom as a bunch probably know by now . went to college for 3 months, hated it, and quit. i finally found a part-time job that i like--being a delivery driver. i just started my own business and am still pulling everything together. i also do a little maintenance now and then to fill in the cracks, but it's nothing i'm dependant on. It's been a tough couple months here, but everything's pulling back together. Entrepeneurship is the only way i'll be happy (you don't get rich by working for someone else). my truck's going to work, and am looking at getting a flatbed cummins in the future (maybe soon, the payments are a struggle, but worth it).

i love anything with a motor and am fanatical about snowmobiling and high performance diesels!

In the end, do what makes you happy

Tom

My weapons experience extends from .177 cal pellet rifles to stuff that makes you glow in the dark for a long time.

Phillip here. Im 24, and recently married to the most beautiful woman in the world. No kids yet, but I do look forward to fatherhood. I am a pipe designer for one of the "big three" engineering firms in the world. I like my job, but it never keeps me away from what I was raised doing: Loving Jesus, running cattle, and roping steers.

I live out in the country on my family's 450 acre ranch. My dad and I run about 200 head of cattle on our land, and multiple lease pastures. I work in the city, and drive as fast as I can to get back to the country every day.

I love to hunt, fish, team rope, and serve the Lord.
