MD as well - Cardiac and General Anesthesia.....The Gas Man aka Dr. Feel Good.

Can't say I'd recommend medicine as a profession either, though it pays for my toys, habits and obsessions. I do have admin BS - VP of our private group and too many headaches.

Met a Doc while on a lift in Big Sky, MT several years ago. He worked 1 wk on-1 wk off. I should have been smarter..........

[Miltie]

Working as Technical Liaison in vehicle Quality Assurance. Coolest part of the job is to evaluate prototype vehicles during development and pre-production stages. Majority of my time spent supporting field technical operations for affiliate companies. Never a dull moment and feel very lucky to be doing something I enjoy. Alpine snowboarding, surfing and hanging out with my family are what keep me sane.

It is a hungry monster. Lot's of fun.

That's the other Bow Cycle.

It's across the street. Pedals and motors within 50 feet of each other.

[big canuck]

As Rob mentioned there are two shops across the street from each other. Originally both were owned by one family but they have since sold both stores to seperate groups.

The Can Am is very cool though no doubt.

It looks like they took a snowmobile and put wheels on it. I'd be curious, does it still have the continuously variable tranny or does it actually have a real transmission in there?

[Derf]

I studied in mechanical engineering, but I work at my province's electricity provider creating and updating electrical distribution line maps.

Thanks, I feel honored. Certainly not as glamorous as one might think lol.

The team I currently work with, http://southardmotorsports.com/.

Site is a bit dull at the moment, should be re-launched soon.

[kjl]

Computer animation.

I spent all yesterday and the day that riding one ride at Disneyworld in Orlando, over and over and over again.

It turns out riding an unfinished disneyworld ride for like 12 hours is not as much fun as it sounds at first.

Aye, but my kids vote for kjl. K, don't you work for Pixar?

Cars was a damn good movie, no matter how old you are!

[kjl]

Yep, been there for over a decade now!

[ecnalubma]

A buddy of mine must have been the model for "Buzz Lightyear" , my kid saw his picture on myspace and now thinks (insists) I know Buzz Lightyear. I may have to get in touch with you K, a really good practical joke involving Pixar letterhead is forming up in my mind.

That is way cool. Pixar rocks. I am sure the real world work of creating animation is not as fun as it sounds, but you guys make my favorite animation stuff. I may like it better than my kids. (Edit: I may like the animation more than my kids like the animation....)

The Incredibles was so funny. So well done. Cars. Nemo

The POV stuff in Ratatouille was amazing as well. I am not so in favor of the anthropomorphisation ( is that a word ) of rats, but the movie was excellent. Did it win or nominated for Academy Award for .....?

Very cool stuff here, you guys make me feel stupid ( or underachiever ) but I do work one half mile from the lift to one of the best mountains in the world. And fifty days on the pass this year so it could be worse.

So you know, there is an IRL team based in Chicago. Dale Coyne Racing. Small-ish team with a tight budget. Best way to get into the business, volunteer.

My advice is don't. If you think MEC is bad, wait until you get into Bow Cycle. I was lucky to escape with my credit intact!

[big canuck]

Yeah swing by. It was CRAZY today. first nice day of the year.

Allee, your bike is the gateway drug, I'll see you soon....

Come on over for a beer and tell me how to get the alternator/fan back into my 911. Do German people have really small hands?

P.S. If you ever make it to Mosport, let me know.
