What have been your jobs through your life to this point?

I have been a bicycle messenger, WW1 ACE, barnstormer and stunt pilot, golf course groomer, writer & photographer, USCG Aviation and small boat search & rescue specialist, radio news reporter, entertainer...and a bunch more. Always making childhood dreams come true.
We have pilots, mechanics, race car people...etc...here. We have you young folk here.
What do you younger folks want to do? Share a dream.....no matter how old you are. We can all use some uplifting moments after the past week or so.


If you are new here....say HI!
We are from all over the world!
Send us sone pictures and stories from where you live.

Teaching is good. If you like to be with people and if you truly want the best for others, it's one of the more fulfilling things you can do.

Myself, all counted, I've worked as a shop assistant in a photo shop, a waiter in a hotel, a carpenter (making semi-prefab houses), a state authorized mushroom controller :-), a science assistant in university, a high-school teacher, an author and a co-author (of two text-books), and I have also had some success as an amateur photographer, but never done it for a living... And, of course I'm a handyman, an aficionado of blacksmithing, electronics, carpentry and what have you.

I started out working on the family farm. Then I went to work as a heavy equipment mechanic, to an auto mechanic, and now I'm an aviation mechanic. Which was my dream while I was In high school. Funny how things work out. It just goes to show follow your dreams and they will come true! ;)

Pot scrubbing was my first job after dropping out of school , then a long stint building boats followed by a longer stint as a chef. I have also been a professional sailor which really was my dream job but not a great choice if you have a family also I did a good few years as a landscaper but currently I am back in the kitchen ! .

Good to see some dairy farming history here, I have a good friend who I help with milking sometimes so he can finish early and come surfing and yes I have had my boots filled and my back covered in processed grass ! . I also have a whole bunch of kids .

Follow your dreams for sure and use your intuition as well and play lots a DOGFIGHT !!.

I think they do exist actuly. If you read the bible you can find a bunch of stuff on alien encounters. But then again it could just be the devil and the angels that followed coming and screwing with humanity.

I know you were not asking if they really existed or not. No one really knows except for people that may have really actuly been abducted or have had a encounter. The U S government dose bot like the idea of ET existing. But the U K man they take U F O serisouly and they get all the cool crop circles. Wich obivisly means the the ufos think the US is worthless to try and communicate with and they went to the UK. They Uk even got a cropcercle that looked like a ET holding a disc with a binary code message in it.



I really find this pretty awesome. And if you look at the aliens right shoulder or the left one as it appears to us. There are 3 dots in a straight line. That is a constellation in our sky. It is 3 dots in a straight line and it is alwase in a slight slant with earth or makes a diagonal line leaning to the left from our view.



These are wheat stims from a crop circle and as you can see at the not in the stem the growth was excelirated causing the plant to lay flat or bend at the not of the plant instead of it just being pushed and bent to lay a certant way.



This is a painting form the 1400s i think it was. It could have been before the 1400s as well. Any way it depicts a air battle over germany. And it even shows that some of them have crashed or have been shot down and the are on fire in the german town. Its fascinating to me.
