| Dream job I hear many people groaning and complaining about their jobs.So what would your dream job be if you could do anything in the world?
I'll start.I'll like to be a game reviewer and play video games all day long.Or,I would like to go race cars and bikes and maybe play a bit of soccer.Ok,I'm getting carried away here.
Would like to hear what your dream jobs are. |

| Book reviewer. I read books all day, then tell everyone how bad they are. Or, occaisionally, how good. I've always like critiquing, and I've always liked books. Thus....  |

| Food creation engineer for either wendy's or krispy kreme. They get to make up all the new flavors and creations for the entire chain. It would be so much fun making a new kind of burger, or designing a new filling for a donut, and its not like cooking for yourself. Everyone gets to eat what you made.
Well, Either that or professional communist hunter. That would be great also - Running through the streets of moscow with an emblem of Ronald Reagan, using Jellybeans and a copy of the Constitution to ward them off and convert them. |

It sounds cool but wasn't very romantic. He never left his office in DC. The "hunt" was actually a paper chase in most cases. |

| All these little kids playing some game in this big field of rye and all. Thousands of little kids, and nobody's around- nobody big, I mean- except me. And I'm standing on the edge of some crazy cliff. What I have to do, I have to catch everybody if they start to go over the cliff- I mean if they're running and they don't look where they're going I have to come out from somewhere and catch them. That¡¦s all I'd do all day. I'd just be the catcher in the rye and all. I know it's crazy, but that's the only thing I'd really like to be.

I think my dream job would be video documentarian for all the National Monuments, NAt'l Rec Areas, Wild & Scenic Rivers, etc that are up for consideration for National Park status.
