What was the worst job you ever had?

Back in the 90s, I was the guy who handed Hillary Clinton her throwing-lamps.

Very dangerous job. She had lousy aim.

Prior to that, I was in the Navy, and this is more a task than a job, but painting the bilge. It’s slimy, messy, smelly, constricted, and you don’t want to know that things that will rub off on you in the process.

Sorta like working for Hillary Clinton.

If you had to eat one meal everyday for the rest of your life, what would it be?

I suppose I could cheat and say “the buffet at Golden Corral”, but I’ll go with ham sandwiches, because I eat those every day anyway. I find them to be the perfect balance of flavor and convenience.

Also, pizza is an option. I worked my way through college at a pizza place. Never got tired of the stuff.
