Country: | Yes I know, but some apply that to Caps markers, while it originally is a very ancient hybridisation technique, not very much used today.

The Boss is a B@stard, but at least I can have a few drinks with him at the end of the day.

My wife's family are all vol firefighters - much of the fire/rescue service in small towns relies upon volunteers, with very few paid full-time staff. My hat off to you - they tell me some pretty amazing stories.

Country: | To pay the bills I'm a fourth-generation small town banker. Not too many of us little guys left anymore what with all the mergers and buyouts.
I've also spent the last 35 years as a volunteer firefighter/EMT with only the past few years being paid per call. (Man, just typing 35 years makes a person feel old. Used to think anybody that could remember stuff from 20-30 years ago must be older than dirt. Seems like last week now.) I'm third generation there with my baby(?) girl being the fourth. |

Currently in my final year at school then probably some courier job while I go to University or alternatively get a trade.
