    Awesome, quick someone think of a drag racing myth! Those guys love that place! Maybe we can get them to test if Hydrazine really works? Then they can leave it for a while and let it blow up, this is a win - win idea!

    Petroleum landman. Our motto is:

    "Exploiting the earth's natural resources for fun and profit."

    Not so much profit lately.

    I guess it's car related, although I mostly work for companies drilling for natural gas, not oil.

    I work at the Apple store fixing expensive computers for stuck up yuppies. I live in the center of the OC, so thats what I can expect.

    My official title is an Apple Genius, so thats a plus. Customers give us gifts every now and then, I got a regular customer who knew my truck and went out and bought me new emblems for the 62 because I cut him a deal on his repair costs. Needless to say I was stoked!

    Server, but not anywhere cheap! My guests for 2008 ordered nearly 1/4 million, so whatever you guys tips, times that amount, and I'm doing fairly well for a college guy.

    Some times I get to animate Firebirds on two wheels, Johnny Carson juggling Oldsmobiles, Pink sedans rolling down hills, driving on rhino boots, chasing down carriages in central park, Bullet-esque car chases, multi-car pile ups and the list
    goes on and on and on........

    I run a plant that makes insulated piping. Used mainly for chilled water, steam, cryogenics, etc. Extremely boring, but pays the bills for the hobby.
