So I was watching the television series, The Pretender thanks to Netflix. Every week Jarod would read some books, study an occupation and then go and be that profession.
What if it were that easy in real life? You could upload data like in the Matrix or read and study like Jarod and then change profession on a whim. What would you be?
Last week I wanted to be an architect. This week I'd be a cardiovascular surgeon. What would you be?

I absolutely LOVED that show! :)
I would try everything I could think of at least once. I'm indecisive that way. Or greedy. :blink:

This week, I'd be a mover, to help make sure I pack everything the best possible way. Next week, I'd be a professional race car driver, so I could get down to Austin super fast.
I'd be a travel writer who reviewed resorts, luxury spas, five star hotels...you get the picture.

I loved that show. I can't bear to part with the Season 4 dvd set that has the episode where Broots dances in his boxers to P-Funk for Miss Parker.
I might like to subject someone to that some time... probably have to have a couple beers first.
I want to assume an identity where I get to drive a Porsche, like a doctor ("Are you a doctor?" "I am today.")

This week, I would like to be a world famous, published author who now just sits around in a remote cabin resting on her laurels while the residuals roll in.
Aren't you already famous? *ducking*
Today I wanted to be an ORACLE guru or a simple database analyst!

I LOVED that show, I actually have a season or 2 on DVD thanks to a dear friend.
If I could download any skill and just become it magically, I think I would be a professor of astrophysics, neurology or biology.

Today I'd download every different form of martial arts. And I would study everything about cooking.

This week I'd learn and become an orthopedic surgeon. I'd then perform the surgeries for free.

Anyone Miss Parker was digging that day. She was the reason I liked the show. She was a wicked sexy evil bitch.
