work at a wildlife sanctuary and we took care of turtle too

Hey I used to work at a wildlife sanctuary when I was 18-19 in Florida. It was called Octagon Wildlife Sanctuary in North Fort Myers. I used to feed the animals, scoop poop and also do repairs and construct new housing when needed. We had some screen donated by a large geenhouse in the area and we folded it 2 times to make 4 layers and then attached it to the top of the cages to cover half of the area and they had shaded areas then. We were working on the large tigers cage (about 20ft up) and he jumped up and actually clawed the chain link that we were standing on

I have had almost as many hobbies as I have had jobs. I used to race RC cars, then slot cars, car stereo equipment took up many hours of my time around 1988-1990, I have a Datsun 260Z that I installed a 318 chrysler V8 into, I used to be obsessed with dart playing on a league, was really into shooting guns and reloading a few years ago (have 3 trophies from 3 years of bullseye competition), also have a love for pool playing (mostly 9-ball). I have a 9-foot table in the basement now and now the latest endeavor is my home theater system. It's a 106" DIY screen, Denon receiver, Yamaha speakers, DVD recorder, Hi-def cable DVR, Xbox, PS2, Dreamcast, N64 and PS1 all hooked up to the BenQ projector.

Here's a pic of the screen I built with my 4 yr old in his Superman suit to show the scale.



Did I mention that I'm also into aquariums ?
