I'm a software/web consultant. I like looking through the server logs mid-day to see who's browsing the main site (we don't keep statistics on forum usage). It's always a bunch of people using thei

I am a police officer in a city south of Boston, 6 years so far. I work the midnight shift to give myself more time for golfing, although it doesn’t always work out as planned haha.

I'm a librarian.

I first read that as "libertarian," and I was going to ask how you made a living doing that.

No, but I took the 'World's smallest political quiz', and it determined that I AM indeed a libertarian.

I'm a centrist leaning towards libertarianism.

I'll leave out the usual disclaimers about how poorly a few questions can determine where I stand on anything... and just shut up now. http://www.theadvocates.org/quiz-score/draw.php?p=6&e;=6

My sister is studying to be a nurse right now. Then she wants to move from LPN to RN and then right to... whatever is right under a doctor. A nurse practitioner, I think...

Smart girl. It's a job that is in high demand, she can live almost anywhere she wants, and she'll make a decent living. Tell her she might want to see a financial adviser to help her prepare for retirement as soon as she starts working. Nurses usually have a crappy retirement. It's a job that is pretty tough on your body and ask any nurse and they will tell you...it's not something they want to be doing in late life. Say after 55. I am 33 and I already feel it. Also if she is unattached she might want to consider registry or travel assignments. That is a way to make some big money quick. You can make upwards of $50/hr + living expenses and sign on bonuses (at least out here). Out here in California we have a lot of travelers that are making bank. Also if she works it right ...she can take on assignments that are close to home so not much commuting is involved. Tell her good Luck and hang in there...it's a long road but worth it!

I am an Exercise Physiologist and the General Manager of two health clubs. Aside from the daily opperations of the clubs I do about 25-30 hours a week of personal training. I work for a guy named Peter Nielsen. He is the resident fitness expert on the NBC affiliate in Detroit. His show was recently syndicated nationally so look for him on TV in your town soon. You can check the show out at www.peternielsen.com Who knows? If the show takes off, I may be running health clubs all over the US. That way I can complain about not having enough time to play in multiple states.

I'm a 4th year student from the University of Minnesota majoring in Genetics, Cell Biology, and Development. I'm graduating in about two weeks, which is a relief. I'm currently working in an Immunology Lab on campus and hopefully I'll stay on the lab staff and get a job after I graduate. I'm in talks with them right now and it looks like I'll get the job soon.

I've played about 3 rounds of golf this year and I want to get out more, but school is dragging me down.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By StuM · Posted

      Shot 48 yesterday.  For me bogey golf is good.  I was 10 over through 7 and figured with a Par 3 and 4 coming on all I needed was birdie / par to get my 45. I had a great tee shot on #8 and sunk  a 5 footer for birdie, game was coming together, now just needed par on #9. Had a great tee drive and the green was within range for a hoped GIR or nGIR.  But I pulled the shot left into tall weeds and needed to take a drop.  So much for par, but a bogey for 46 is still good for me. I hit my lob wedge to get over a small tree and saw the ball riding nicely  on line to the pin when my club hit the ball a 2nd time on my follow through causing the ball to change directions and ended up @ pin high but along the same tall weeds I just took an unplayable out of.  had no room for a backswing, Just hacked at it and it shot across the green to the rough on the far side.  Needed a chip & 1 putt got a triple bogey. you can see the hole fall apart in the screenshot below.
