To get a sense of everyone's interests and for some easy entertainment, I thought I'd inquire as to what everyone's occupation and personal interests (hobbies) are.

I'll start:

Occupations- Student, Consultant for KeepYourAssets.net (http://www.keepyourassets.net/?andrew), a highly successful privacy and asset protection company. If you want to keep your finances and personal info private, we can help. In terms of activism, I'm involved to various degrees with various libertarian projects such as the "major public policy/contact-your-reps" site I won't mention. The only reason I don't is because I might say things that would make the organization look bad, and I'd rather be able to be honest here rather than worry about censoring everything I write. A clue though: If you've ever had tech support issues, it was I who probably resolved them.

Hobbies- Political outreach, such as with the Free State Project (http://www.freestateproject.org/). I also like screwing with technology, outdoor activities, and traveling.

I'm a college student right now, but I also work at a company called RDLW Fabrications helping manage the jobs and bidding state work. I've put thousands of dollars into my business which won't be mentioned here.
hobbies.. whatever college kids do at the #3 party school in the nation. ;)

I work for the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, Coastal Fisheries. Specifically at the Marine Development Center in Corpus Christi, which is a fish hatchery. We spawn and raise red drum, spotted seatrout, and more recently, southern flounder. We dabble with cobia (ling) once in a while as well. I'm forced to do all sorts of terrible things, like go fishing for brood stock, stocking fingerlings up and down the coast by land and by boat, give facility tours, host fishing events, and scores of other grueling tasks.:D (Yes, I love my job!) For hobbies, I like to......go fishing! I also restore and build boats. Currently I have 6 ranging from 13 to 26 feet (though the 26 footer is drydocked due to it's insatiable appetite for $3 a gallon gasoline:() My favorite boat (besides the 26) is a 13 foot 1968 Starcraft I got for free and am currently rebuilding and reconfiguring from a runabout to a fishing skiff. Can't wait to get it on the water.
