    I am a maintenance planner at one of the gold mines in my area. I've been in planning about a year and a half, salaried since February.

    Is it like the tv show? We don't have gold mines (that I'm aware of) around here, just coal mining.

    It's not like any of the tv shows I know of. Maybe in my walk abouts today, I'll snap a couple of pictures.

    Lawyering is a second career for me. I should be retired, but I enjoy working. Once she gets on the tenure track, she should be making more money than I will.

    She has a birthday coming up in July. I have to figure out what to get her. I don't have much time if I want to have something made. She loves earrings, but I don't want to overdo it.

    I'm thinking of a silver hair pin. I'm wondering if it might be too heavy.

    Here are a couple of pictures of the plant I work at. We pressure oxidize ore, which is basically doing in 45 minutes what it take Mother Nature 1000 years to do.

    So Oly, what you are saying is hit you up for employee discounts at Gander Mountain right?!

    I've been in the Army almost 18 years now, first 9 years I was an Infantry soldier and the rest I've been flying the OH58D. Two more years and I'll be retiring unless I get picked up for CW4. Plan is after retirement is go fly EMS somewhere, probably TN/KY/MO areas since there is better hunting there than down here in way lower Alabama!

    Afghanistan 2011, that's me on the far left. This was after a mission where we engaged some enemy fighters and landed and recovered one of their AKs
