I'm stage managing a theatre production for the next few weeks. After that, ain't got a clue! :)

I blink lights. There is considerably more blinking to do now, picture was taken a year ago. Since then the first five racks have been filled up almost completely.

I thought you were to going to retire last year in luxury based on your clever investment strategies. How's that working out for you?

Investment strategy worked fine. This is more of a "Retirement" type of job, where I walk around with a clip board and don't do any actual real work unless I feel like it. ;)

I just passed the NRCan exam last week, which means I'm a certified Energy Advisor now. I'm not the type of guy to sit around on my fat ass all day wearing plaid shirts waiting for the Type 2 diabetes to kick in. I have a few more weeks of College, and will graduate on the honour roll. Now that the government has passed legislation making energy audits mandatory for all home sales, it's practically a license to print money. My investments meant I was able to buy a brand new $4000 Minneapolis blower door kit from Air Solutions with cash.

Thanks for asking.

I do IT work. Everything from programming to support. I currently work at a small company where I'm the only IT person. I support 5 servers and 50 computers. I also write software to remotely monitor the equipment our company builds. :)

In the past, I've worked at IBM and Nortel. I think I prefer working at a smaller company except that I don't have any other geeks around to talk to. :wink:

For the past 10 months I've been an archaeological assistant. I'm going to do historical interpretation (explain history to people at an historic site) again for the summer, then I don't know...hopefully a little more work with the archaeologists.
