Good point. And BTW, we hate having to tone out a station in the middle of the night for a BS call.

KXAN.

Check his profile.

I thought for the longest time that I was going to be a veterinarian. But, then I joined my high school paper and realized I could write better than I could dissect.

Up until senior year in college, writing for a newspaper was the plan, but then I dabbled some in technical writing classes (figuring that if my brother could do it, certainly I could) and, lo and behold, some computer company offered me 2.5 times what a newspaper would, and I signed on.

Now I'm a product documentation editor and hate the hell out of it. But, I have a fat 401(k) and hope to live long enough to enjoy it.

Seriously, I've been considering opening a bakery a lot lately. I bake all the time and can imagine how wonderful it would be to be my own boss.

I wanted to live in the Candian wilderness and survive on my man-skills, but I ended up being a Marketing Coordinator for a German Power Tool & Abrasives Company (Metabo). Can't complain, but I'd still like to live in the woods!

I wanted to be a pro baseball player, I got as far as college where I got some interest and then got hurt. I then moved to my second dream of being a rock star. I got as far as being a part-time professional musician. So I guess I have lived 1/4 of a dream while I work full time doing computers.

I blame Bush.

I grew up in kitchens and cooked professionaly until I was 25. I always thought I'd end up owning my own resturant..I was burnt on the 80-100 hour work weeks though, and no longer had any creative control, I was just a babysitter. So, I got into food sales via my seafood/poultry vendor, and did that for 7 years. I was tired of working at that point, so I went fishing, for a year . When I got low on money, I came back to PHX and took the same job I still have 8 years later, selling industrial chemicals B2B.

I always wanted to eliminate ne'er do wells and evil tyrants from the planet, but they just don't post those jobs too frequently.

That's good, because I like it here

I could not imagine living without eating meat

I hope your being funny or your eyes are going bad.

You calling my mom a Lybian?[/cartman]

Yes, but we also get paid to sleep 80+ hrs of that is sleep time (well, between running calls). And my schedule gives me a 4 day weekend every 5 days... gotta love that.

I wouldnt mind being a firefighter but I dont think they would want a guy with asthma.

Or a giant ass.

I dont have a big ass. Just big belly.

The NBC affiliate... KXAN

Jack in the Box commercial reference.

Hummm....

I left a great job three months ago.

Today, I am still washing dust out of my ears. I'm sore from just getting bumped and jounced. I have a broken arm and I haven't had 8 hours of sleep in months. And I'd do it again in a heartbeat. Well,technically I have to wait three weeks.

Turn on NBC tomorrow at 2pm Eastern (11 Pacific) and if you happed to see the guy on the track handing Ricky Johnson his TOYO hat, that's me.

Livin' the dream,
Patrick.

Pat, your a hat handler? U DID shape/bend it too right? Well damn, that IS a dream isn't it? J/K, I'll be lookin for ya!

Me- Hmm dream job... well, I guess I just wanted to design HotRods or be involved with that process somehow..... but right before that, it was all about computers, the C64, TRS80 etc. Wanted to make a REAL 3d monster dungeon type game...... then one day on my lunch-hour from Saturn (I know, not-a-hotrod) I stumbled into STAPLES and behold..... my dream sat right in front of me....



Sunzabitchez!!!!!

MGJ

Hat hander? No. Funny though. But it's part of my job to prep our drivers on sponsor mentions and make sure they have the right hat on when they get out of the race car.

Cleezy,

I'm living the dream buddy. I negotiated and executed the deal to bring Baldwin Racing into the TOYO tires family. I also formed partnerships with Ironclad Performance Wear, KMC wheels and Sway-a-Way with Baldwin Racing. In a few short months, we redesigned the vehicles, the merchandise, wrapped the transporter and are reestablishing one of the great programs in off road racing from a very expensive hobby into an income generating business.

I logged over 2000 cell minutes last month just getting ready for teh season and we're just scratching the surface of the potential in short course off road racing. I'm actually working for a living which is new and different and at 37 I've been reborn.

When you say Ricky Johnson SoCal, that's not the same AMA Motocross Champion Ricky Johnson is it?

Yes it is.

Ricky Johnson Returns To Championship Off Road Racing

Newport Beach, Ca. (February 5 , 2007) - Ricky Johnson announced Saturday night in front of a packed Supercross crowd at Anaheim Stadium that he would be returning to Championship Off Road Racing. Johnson, a Baja, Supercross and one time CORR™ Pro 2™ Champion, has joined Baldwin Racing. Returning to the track for the full 2007 CORR™ season, Johnson, who provides color commentary for the CORR televised broadcasts, will be stepping out from behind the microphone and into an 850 horsepower Baldwin Racing prepared Pro 2™ truck.

“Driving the trucks for the television broadcasts reminded me how intense it is competing in this series,” said Rick Johnson. “When I had the chance to race in last years Jason Baldwin Memorial Cup, I realized that I needed to get back into a full time ride.”

Along with his 1998 CORR™ Pro 2™ Championship, Johnson also has earned seven AMA/Supercross and motocross championships and multiple SCORE Baja 500 and 1000 victories in both motorcycle and truck classes. Johnson has also raced in the NASCAR Craftsmen Truck Series, ASA Pike’s Peak Hill Climb and was named 1999 ASA Stock Car Series Rookie of the Year.

“CORR racing combines the high flying excitement of Supercross with the door slamming action of stock car racing,” said Johnson. “To me, it is the most exciting form of racing out there right now and I can’t wait to get back into it. There’s nothing you can’t do in a CORR™ truck.”

Johnson joins Pro 4™ driver Josh Baldwin to form a formidable alliance for the upcoming 2007 CORR series. “With all of his experience, Ricky brings an incredible amount of talent and knowledge to the team,” declared Baldwin. “With him driving the Pro 2™ and myself in Pro 4™, Baldwin Racing is looking to make an impact this season.”

Baldwin Racing competes professionally in the Championship Off Road Racing series as well as the premier Trophy Truck class in the SCORE International desert racing series.
