What kind of bombs? The big round black ones with a wick sticking out like Batman runs around with in the 1967 Batman movie?

I currently work as a private media consultant, specializing in digital marketing and social media.

My biggest client at the moment is my future father-in-law, who is the General Manager of a Hotel in Alberta, Canada, so I am currently learning a lot about the hospitality business and how the industry responds to growing changes in digital marketing.

Previously U.S. Navy fighter mech. Now I'm a Business Intelligence Architect/Dev... but I really do anything for the company that isn't being done fast enough or thoroughly enough. The curse of competence. I work from home, so it kind of balances out.

Pretty much a bum. I sit around all day and do design and coding on a 'game' while consuming lots of caffeinated beverages. At the same time I also play a lot of multiplayer Skype with like-minded folk.

Lol hardly a bum...I am still not sure if you or Chris actually sleep, you both seem to be on as much as me!

The Skype game is fun too but the Pantheon one is definitely better! :P

Retired Air Force Pharmacy Tech/ Currently Lead Sterile Compounding Specialist.... I want out of Pharmacy bad if you have a janitor position open in the near future I would take it since I cant do programing or art. I also have a lot of project management experience not that it gets me much in my current role. =)

I'm 2/3 of a bum then as a taxi driver. :)

1. Sit around all day - Check!

2. Coding - N/A

3. Consuming lots of caffeinated beverages - Check!
