    I'm transitioning from regular graduate school to doctoral graduate school. I finish with my master's in December in Human Resources Development and will decide whether or not to continue at that time.

    In the meantime, I drink a lot of Old Rasputin and RedBud. I also work part time in a liquor store, so I get a pretty nice discount on some interesting stuff that comes around every so often. Our beer supply is limited, but the manager is always game to special order a case of something I think is interesting. As long as I buy the case if no one else does! What a tragic life I lead!

    Your ability to type made ponder if you really were Sagan. Then again, I hoped he just employed a soigneur just for the sole purposes of collecting beer during the course of the world tour, and to type up clean English responses on here.

    By the way, your quote above is spot on with Sagan's English speaking. I read it in his voice, haha.

    I first read that as "Mediocre" and was going to say you're being hard on yourself!

    Who do you sell the photos to? If I may ask. In general who buys them. Sounds like a great job honestly

    I am a manager and beer/liquor clerk at a grocery store. I take great pride in making honest recommendations to my customers. I have coordinated with different vendors to purchase several different beers I have found on Beeradvocate.com. Many guests return and ask what I will recommend on this visit. I thoroughly enjoy sharing what I have learned with those willing to ask.

    Corporate gig, business portraits, events, 4' checks, receptions/award dinners. Yes, great job, still work though. Some conventions/meeting stuff too. Awesome weeks or days spent on the National wire and rope annual meeting. American College of Gastroenterology? Had to leave the room twice.

    Accountant. Bachelors in Accounting and Finance, minor in Economics. Passed the CPA exam but not licensed yet, planning on grabbing an MBA as well... Worked for most of my post school career at a CPA firm in DC and now am back home in Maine. I've been spoiled by the beer locations i've lived in.

    Band I write for is Evidence Black. Acoustic quartet I play with we call ourselves Los Cojones.

    Also, fully retired since I posted what you quoted.

    And two songs into album 2 for Evidence Black, which is a sci fi rock opera, but no new music has come my way from band for about 4 months. Musicians!
