Hi...my name is Patrick and im an alco...wait...wrong meeting...
but seriously..
1. I work as a freelance writer right now, doing mostly new car reviews. For instance, I wrote the Ford history on this page. I also work for the company who owns this forum, so I handle many aspects of the forums. I have a degree in tax accounting and I was working as an accountant, but have recently moved and I am still hunting for a job in that field.
2. Prior to moving, I coached a college hockey team, as well as playing on several teams. I have not found a team to play for here yet, but with winter coming, I hope to do so. I also was a driver in a small national drag racing series (averaging about 100 runs a season), but since I moved, and had no room for the car/trailer here, I have only run a few this year, and that was in two of my daily drivers. I will get to run my "fast" car in a few weeks, and Im looking forward to that. I like racing games on PS2, and I have a few project cas here. When in high school I made money to build the car that i drag race by building exact models of peoples cars that i knew, and while i havent built a model in about 10 years, when i moved i brought my kit with me, and i may get back into doing that.
I know, Im not very interesting right now...i used to be...i swear!

Well, here goes:
#1. Drive transport trucks for the time being...thinking about going back to University to major in History, maybe become a history teacher at a highschool...maybe university if I'm feeling ambitious...I just don't think I want to get my PhD...don't have the money 
#2. There are plenty of things that I like to do, but few of which I have the time for, mostly Scuba Diving, Skiing, Model building (war models ie// tanks planes ect), computer based RPG and TBG, my PS2 is always in the truck w/ me, movies, long walks on the bea...wait, this isn't a dating site......and I used to fly gliders but haven't been able to in quite awhile...
Anyways, that's me in a nutshell...partly cracked i'll admit...but still intact...hehehe

Hi,
I am a retired volunteer fire chief (this was my other job) I make a living as a senior lab analyst for a mining firm in Wyoming. I am not retired from this job (just tired). I volunteered my services to our community for 29 years, 20 as fire chief. I enjoy hunting, fishing, fourwheelers, and four wheeling in my F-350, traveling and being with my wife of 34 years. I have three sons and we all own Ford trucks and cars. I'm old enough to remember when the Mountain Men were tourist and young enough to still keep working. I have read several of your responses and enjoy both your humor and seriousness. Keep up the chatter so far the forum is great.
