I was just wondering. I'm planning on going to nuclear engineering.

(un)professional bum, at the moment.

I'm thinking about taking a bartending course and bartending when I get back home.

I am really into mechanical engineering and astrophysics, so I will definitely do a ph.d in one of those, but I have not decided between those two yet. I will pretty much pick up any job that pays well and allows me to work on the subject matter without dealing with people too much. ;):D

Corporate Maniac :D (no, seriously)
Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers in the preceding generation . . .Learn from science that you must doubt the experts. As a matter of fact, I can also define science another way: Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. - Richard Feynman

Growing up with HTML coding, I find it extremely hard to get Dreamweaver to do anything productive. It generates very inefficient HTML code, etc etc. I use Homesite 4.5 - much easier for me, at least. :)

And that's what I do (in between reserve duty periods), build websites. :)

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

I'm working as Java Analyst/Programmer right now, on a project for a cell phone company (Telefônica Celular). Takes too much time, and software analysis just sucks. Writing useless documents for hours and hours is damn boring if you ask me - I hope we get to the actual development stage soon...
Probably away. Contact through email.

I know... :rolleyes: Personally, if you want to use a WYSIWYG editor, I'd go with Adobe GoLive - it's similar to Dreamweaver in a way, but I like it more - I can actually work with it. :D

But my editor of choice is definetly HomeSite - I've been with that proggy since version 2, back in '94 or so - something like that. That's what I used to make my website - that and TopStyle. :)

I'm working on finding a job... if that even counts.

Used to work in a web design firm... but that was in the long ago, in the before-time.

Now I'm still looking, and looking, and looking...
