Could you, would you, or do you consider yourself to be a resident expert on a particular subject? The subject need not be about fish, plants, or inverts but can be. The reason I ask is because I would like to see (and maybe you would too) how diversified our members are.

My areas that I consider myself to be well-versed in:

Computers:
Systems Engineer
Certified Network Tech
Certified Computer Tech
I also taught Computers Systems I at our local Community College

Maintenance:
Certified Master Mechanic (Diesel and Gas)
Board Certified Heavy-Duty Recovery Specialist

Other:
Registered Conventional Explosive Ordinance Specialist


Surprisingly I have regained memory of a lot of it but not all. Had it not been for the strokes, I was a Computer Systems Consultant when I wasn't working on trucks or race. cars. Now trying to learn all I can about my wet friends. It's not just a hobby anymore it's more than that.

How about you?

Chromatography & closely associated (chemistry, computer, pharmaceutical) topics. Even there, I'm not "the man" but I'm well versed.

making songs on guitar(tabs/music, not lyrics)
drawing(from graffitti to realistic)
doing hair for people
designing.. i like designing anything. interior design, tank design, designing business ideas and charity events that one day i want to do. i have a bunch of ideas for a million things in my head. it's really whatever im interested in i research and learn about, but i cant stick to one thing for a long time.
when im done school, ill be a master of something i guess. actually, i think im already a master at shopping.

I am the "go to" guy on numerous topics for most of my friends, but I don't consider myself an expert on much of anything. I am just not afraid to try.

this cracked me up!!!


and, i guess, i am the resident in dogs, ,fashion and advice on men for my friends...lmao, however. i am by no means an expert in any of those...

i am also the local fish "expert", and have been called a time or two for help with computers.

although, i am no expert there either!! i just happen to know more than most in those areas.

I seem to be the goto guy for my mother when it comes to knowing random information that's otherwise useless or trivial. I actually surprise myself with some of this. Pretty well versed in import performance modifications as I've been heavily involved in the movement since the late 90's. Just tought myself a ton of information in regards to flourescent lights (ballasts, bulbs, and other necessities) and am learning every day in regards to the actual aquarium hobby.
