I hope he gets the big bux!
Only afraid of electricity, heights, and wind indeed! And he's married!  _________________   |

thats line work. My dads best friend was a line worker and it was the most dangerous job in the world for a long time, I think it was 1 in 5 guys died on the job. Its gotten much much safer in the last 20 or so years but still a very dangerous job _________________ Jake

my brother by another mother is a line worker. He said he made $225000 last year, and is retired. Couple years ago,he was getting $8 grand a week in Naples Florida. That job included a driver (he was paid $4000),and $3000 a week rooms. He did mention that Boston State was hiring line-men to work in Australia,for $150,000+ with a one year commitment. The worst part was the 135 degree days in the outback.  |

Another sorta dangerous job is driving fuel tank trucks in Iraq. A couple drivers from Bangor,Maine are doing it. Bullets usually go right through the aluminum tanks with no fire. That also paid a healthy six figure salary !  |

What the Hell,,,while I'm on a roll,,,Ocean-divers around here make a lot of money also, but the risks aren't that bad. Well except for sub-zero temps and the strongest tides on the East coast! We hardly ever get any

My kinda of man.
I am afraid of swimming in the ocean myself. I was just in Mexico swimming in it.
If I can get over that fear, the only one left is women.  _________________ Some people are only alive because it's illegal to kill them.
