As a kid I wanted to be a Meteorologist, specifically a Tornado Chaser. In high school I thought about majoring in Music. But circumstances changed that. Plus with Music I'd end up as pro musician or band director and wanted neither of both. 

Thought about meteorological when I joined the Air Force, but decieded against it as I was afraid I'd end up in Alaska measuring trade winds, away from my Wife and Daughter. Took the safe route with Aircraft Maintenance...ended up with a Remote assignment in South Korea away from my family. The Air Force was another dream of mine since my Dad served in it.

And Justin I was a fire fighter for a few years. (Jolly Volly) Just like my Dad was.
