As a child, I went through the normal dreaming or wishing to do many different things once I got older; firefighter, pilot, explorer, SCUBA diver, policeman, detective, writer, photographer, journalist, animal trainer, doctor, construction worker, actor, Marine, astronaut, tightrope artist, lawyer, international spy, businessman, big game hunter, private investigator, etc. I even remember when I was about age 13 practicing my signature so that I would be ready to sign a whole lot of autographs in succession without getting tired, lol. less
