    ...English as a Second Language, and I've been doing it for about 12 years now. Nice opportunity to travel, learn about Humanity, and gain some fresh perspective on America. Now I'm teaching English to immigrants' children at an elementary school in northern Virginia.

    I also manage something
    I also manage something unruly. I teach high school English. I've done a little academic Dead-related work. I have essays in Robert Weiner's "Perspectives on the Grateful Dead" and Nicholas Merriwether's "Dead Letters." I pick up a little extra money now & again as a semi-professional tie-dye artist. In fact, if anyone will be in Wisconsin this summer, I'm teaching a one week class in it.

    Yes, there will be plenty of places for discussion; if there's a particular thing you want to discuss let izzie or me know and we'll start a topic. Right now we're trying to work out the software bugs with a finite number of topics... thanks!

    I used to host several world famous gameshows, most recently 'name that Chick' and 'name THAT show'. but apparently ever since the new 'network' took over, these shows have gotten cancelled. I was just about to start hosting, 'call the tune' with a very technologically advanced method of posting up snippets of tuning and beginnings of songs, but that also got tossed aside in the shuffle. I hustle pool for rent money, take care of the unruly compost heap, do the household chores, as well as a bit of entertaining, comedy, acting... peace.

Hey everyone in this awesome forum! 👋 I thought I'd introduce myself and share a bit about my day job. I'm a house painter based right here in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia! 🇦🇺

I absolutely love what I do – transforming homes both inside and out with a splash of color and a touch of magic. From giving exteriors a fresh new look to adding personality to interiors, it's all about creating spaces that truly feel like home. 🌈🖌️

Currently, I'm part of a fantastic team at "Australian Painting and Maintenance Services Pty. Ltd." 🏢 Our crew is a bunch of skilled painters who take great pride in our work. We're all about delivering top-notch results, using high-quality materials to make sure our clients' visions come to life! 💪

If you're curious about our work or just love to see some impressive before-and-after shots, you can check out our website at australianpainting.com.au. We're always excited to showcase our projects and inspire others with our passion for painting! 🎉
Oh, and before I wrap up, I have to mention that besides my passion for house painting, I'm an avid Grateful Dead fan too! 🌹🎶 Their music has been the soundtrack to many of my painting sessions, creating a groovy and inspiring atmosphere. Some of my all-time favorite Grateful Dead songs are "Ripple," "Sugar Magnolia," and "Touch of Grey" - they never fail to lift my spirits! 🎵✨

Speaking of Australia, the Grateful Dead did have a memorable live show here! 🇦🇺🎤 In 1981, they graced the stage at the Capitol Theatre in Passaic, New Jersey, which was broadcasted live on the radio, reaching Deadheads worldwide, including us fans in Australia. Although they never performed a live show down under, their music and influence have certainly traveled far and wide, touching the hearts of many grateful fans across the globe. 🌏🌈 Keep on truckin', fellow Deadheads! 🚚💀🌹

So I just started my post-retirement gig with Trader Joe's
I love this place! The people, the employees, the food... all good!
If you have not been to a Trader Joe's in your area, go check it out and tell me what you think. Either way, I feel good about myself helping people find and prepare quality foods they'll enjoy at a reasonable price.

Engineering. First five years out of college was civil/construction in Eugene, OR. Since 1997 it's been software/internet/web in Boulder, CO. What a long strange trip it's been.
