    Good to hear. I support this company and in turn support your family. I buy fabrication items and other things from McMaster-Carr and have had good service from them. A friend told me about them. Quick delivery.

    I'll play. I am in Pest Management. Or an "Exterminator", if you wanna be a dick about it. LOL. Nah. My family and I own our own state wide pest control business. It's an interesting career, to say the least. I also do music on the side. I've played in various locations, even on the Vans Warped Tour once (with an old band several years ago), but mostly just do acoustic song work/writing. Taking a break now though do to my busy family/work schedule. I'll likely own the family biz outright in a few years, but I can't decide whether I want my wife and child and I to be tied down up here. She wants to move, and frankly so do I.

    ... ^^^ ... Tom DeLay started out as a "bugman" aka "exterminator" in Sugarland, TX IIRC and later made millions as a US Congressman (House Majority Leader).

    Tom DeLay bio at Wiki (interesting reading on how he got started) --> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_DeLay

    Now you just need to run for the US Senate or US Congress and you will have it made ... :D
