Lots of athletes take drugs (i’m not suggesting you do), lots of web entrepreneurs and marketeers try to sell the planet things like viagra and that other drug (my brain has had to develop its own spam filter as the one on my computer is no good). SEO has many marketing-like aspects so the strange career path would almost make sense if it wasn’t for the bit about being a fitness model…

I once had a job pulling rickshaws so I guess this is where I should shut up :)

Rickshaws? :) LOL…. And yes, now that you mention it, some of the random jobs I’ve had could go together somehow. In actuality, the only two that are truely related are the running and the fitness modeling: both of them require that I workout for a living!

Thanks for dropping by Liz. Gladiator and Lord of the Rings are four of the best movies ever but if you like those you have to like Braveheart as well, that one ranks in the top 5.
