A middle school teacher in South Jackson for Jackson Public Schools

Will be looking for a job starting around March

Can usually hunt during the holidays if I had somewhere to go . . . . . . . . . . .
If it doesn't work out there will never be any doubt that the pleasure was worth all the pain.

I'm an operator. If you look on the label of a package of weinies, it'll say, "made from mechanically separated chicken parts"........Yup.......I'm the guy that runs that machine. Great benefit package.

My greatest ambition is for Budweiser to make a song about me for their commercial that goes something like......"this Bud's for you, Mr. Operator of the mechanically separated chicken parts wennie-making machine.

Technician with the NRCS, and none of us do it for the money. I live in the county I work in and am never more than a 30 minute drive from a duck hole. Gives me the opportunity to meet a lot of landowners and work with them on their hunting properties. 4 weeks of vacation ain't bad either. 1 week in the summer for the wifes vacation and 3 weeks in the winter for hunting.
