- Retired pastor
- Entrepreneur … actually, not so much … but it was sure fun to try!
- (And to make a wee bit of money while trying to be an entrepreneur)
- Sometime truck driver (yeah buddy, the 18-wheeled kind!)
- Sometime high school history teacher (at a military academy no less!)
- Sometime van driver for the UP Railroad
- For nearly a decade, a drafter, designing feed mills located around the U.S.
- Guitar player, sometime writer of wonderful songs, as well as singer of songs — but as Willie Nelson famously wrote, Sad Songs and Waltzes Aren’t Selling This Year … so I took all the songs down from the web site (and then I got rid of the web site!), although there’s still a few available over at MySpace and Lulu
- Photographer wannabe
- And as of Sep 2023, retired drafter.
