No I haven't seriously looked into any overseas jobs. But I guess I will be now.
I have to look into what kinda qualifications needed, back ground checks etc. i can guarrantee, I won't pass any. Seems society doesn't like settling problems with guns and violence.

That depends on WHICH society you're settling the problems in... Rich is currently getting PAID to work on military equipment overseas...

There is a difference in between getting charged and or convicted of a felony weapon charge, as long as you have not been convicted of one you should be ok.

Don't sale yourself short because of some past issues, contact those companies and look into a unlimited possibility of some work in real different places for real good money.

Most that could happen is you get a job that pays you more than you could ever make in the US.

Rich you need to see if the outfit your working for needs a gimp smartass to do whatever. I'd bet Shari could do without me for a while if there were some kool payday's in it.
Well Tim's Ranger is FOR SALE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I bought it's replacement yesterday evening. It isn't a Ford.... But a sweet little ride. And yes.... I was another Craigslist find. 1997 Cavalier coupe, lady driven (and a sweet one too) since the car had 800 miles on it. Not only has 137k, 2.2, automatic, air, stereo with 10 disc changer. They had it listed for $850, and Kelly Blue Book gives it alomost an $1100 value in fair shape, needing work. Got it for $700, never been smoked in, alloy wheels, sweet body and paint RED but the clear coat is coming off.
The only downfall, it needs a head gasket, and I'm taking it apart this afternoon. Small leak at number 2 cylinder, $60 for the gasket set at Ches's favorite place.
The Ranger is your's to whom ever wants it for $500, I have more than that in it. Good engine (2.3) and A4LD tranny. Try to find that tranny, it's a tuff one.
Y'all take care. I'll have pictures up in abit...
Unk Bob
Rich................. KEEP YOUR HEAD DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unk Bob - Did you ever check the Crankshaft/Camshaft position sensors in the Ranger? I've heard of problems where they work fine until they get hot and then fail. Let it cool down and they work just fine for a while.

Sounds cool, Rich...

Don't fall down.

Because if you break your leg snow skiing in the desert, I'm pretty sure that SOME PEOPLE will never let you forget it...
