Currently I do consulting (steal your watch to tell you what time it is)... mostly around large ERP Financial Management and HR Systems.

In previous lives I've done software, and military stuff.

Raising two children (28 and 22) and one infant (me).

Transitioning to dive bum - 3 more years and my USNR check will kick in, which will probably push me to full time narc addict.

Important for everyone to know, I have a twin brother, Mike, who sometimes shows up drunk, hitting on women, and telling outrageous lies about what he does, or more specifically, how well he does it. Always tries to pass himself off as me. Ignore him, he's mostly harmless these days, and generally disappears by dawn.
No aquarium, no tank in a marine land, however spacious it may be, can begin to duplicate the conditions of the sea. And no dolphin who inhabits one of those aquariums or one of those marine lands can be considered normal.

Front line manager at New York air traffic control center.

I was a controller for 19 years and just got the managers job this past September. Different responsibilities, managing a group of controllers, alot more paperwork, less stress tho. I still work the radar as I have to keep my skills up as I certify new controllers as they finish their training.

I hate to admit, but in order to support my diving habit, and camera addictions, I have to work at being a pediatric otolaryngologist. It's tough work, but someone has to do it. I just meditate on tuning out the crying :cheerleader:

And that means chronologic age... :dance:

Actually the kids are not so bad. At least they get better fast, and don't make themselves sick with bad habits....

I like this thread too...

Congratulations, Dan. Does this mean more time for dive trips or less time for dive trips?
