Titles pretty much says it. All little kids say they want to be something..like a fireman/policeman when they grow up.
What did you want to be as a kid?

I wanted to be two things. Ones more far fetched than the other.
1. Doctor (I'm closer to it)
2. Famous singer/pianist (although not so far fetched because of Alicia Keys)

I am a very practical man, even when I was a kid. So I figured get the money first, then I can be whatever the hell I want. :D
Only it wasn't as easy as I thought it was.:p

Computer nerd... I had my first "computer" (Atari 400, not that silly game system) when I was 5 years old.
Now, I'm a computer nerd! I work in a testing lab for one of the biggest software companies out there. Gotta love getting your dream job.

Since I was 3 years old, I've wanted to be a pro wrestler. 21 now and the dream still lives. Problem is, I'm not any closer to it than I was when I was 3. :p Some day.

For some strange reason, I wanted to be a garbage man. I just wanted to operate the mechanism that crushes the garbage in the back of the trucks. My dreams, and eventual career, eventually expanded beyond that scope... thank God.

I thought you wanted to rule the world and kill Lois.:D
I always wanted to be in some scret society that takes down entire political parties and nations. I can see it now....
0400 Hours Somewhere in Myanmar, Executive MeleeMan
I am in the building right next to Kvensky, Facist Leader of the New USSR, sniper rifle on the edge of the window, held by me. I steady the scope and shoot him in the head, silently. I think no one knows, pack up my gun and creep out quietly. When I am out of the building, I see hundreds of Facists outside trying to kill me. I say something corny like, "It's go time!" or "Let's do this!" Or maybe something like, "Looks like the guests have finally arrived!" or "Let's dance!" I then press a button and the bomb I planted kills all of the Russians and I fly home. Why was I in Myanmar?
That is not a true story...
