Edit: Also my interests are changing somewhat, I'm currently leaning towards rotary wing with a SAR bent, rather than just strictly bombing the crap out of small countries. Which means I could go into the Coast Guard in addition to Navy, and the accept candidates up to age 29.

Mine: teacher, cop, rock star :irock:
teacher: still pretty likely, I've taught a bit, and will likely continue to teach.
cop: definitely not happening

rock star: I'm a decent musician, but I'm not going to persue it professionally, its just one of those things that enriches my daily life.

When I was younger, I wanted to be a professional golfer on the PGA tour. Now I'm going to be a PGA golf professional teaching lessons...so I was close. Maybe in a few years I can make it on a smaller pro tour somewhere....we'll see.
