    I work at a snobby, high end golf course as a sous chef. Aside from that I run a small home based recording studio and teach guitar lessons.

    I'm also involved in a self-funded research project to discover the greatest beers of all time.

    I've done many things, including but not limited to: Pizza cook, gas station attendant, night club VJ/DJ, soundman, college radio DJ, shift manager for a fast food restaurant, groundskeeper/painter for a large apartment complex, purchasing agent for an engine remanufacturer, and now I work for a large, well known cable company, working with video, phone and Internet. I worked at a bike shop for a little while, one of my favorite jobs. I also had my own apartment/house rental magazine, which I managed to run into the ground all too soon.

    I'm pretty happy doing what I do now, and I've been at it for almost four years now. I get to work with my hands and use my brain, so it's nearly ideal for me.

    Interesting variety of skill sets here on The Fret. A little of everything. Very nice indeed!

    Guitars: Lots.
    Amphs: More than last year.
    Pedals: Many, although I go straight from guitar to amp more often lately.

    Ahh, got it. I was thinking US Smarties which are like mini sardine cans. I saw lots of those smarties perched on stilts above aircraft on Boeing field as I was raised in the Tacoma/Seattle area.
