I thought I had posted to this thread, already; but, perhaps it just resembles another thread.
Anyway, I fly EMS helicopter.
Helicopters and fixed gear bikes have more in common than one might think.

I'm a lobbyist, but not the fun kind who gets to take politicians on golf trips, the boring kind who sits at a desk 9 hours a day and reads e-mails and documents, then writes down the useful information in other e-mails and documents.
By night I build and modify guitar amplifiers and effects for anyone who will pay me to put their insane ideas into practice.

Full time Java developer for the (corporate) man, not using my double in Creative Writing and Philosophy. Maybe when I retire I can write the great American novel.
