    Blaster Annihilator, circa 2000. i bought it while i lived in canada.

    My choice for a career would be Pharmacist. I would like to have the
    job of Pharmacist because a Pharmacist is not only a provider of
    services to the Community, he is also a beloved Member. If I were a
    Pharmacist, I would fill people's prescriptions, also plus I would check
    to see if there would be any medicines they shouldn't take because of
    cross-reactions.

    If I had the job of Pharmacist, I would make the effort to get to know
    all of my customers and learn details about their personal lives so we
    could make small talk, not counting the ones that only come in once or
    twice of course! Also plus too, I could develop little running jokes
    with some of them and build on them every time they came in. Like say
    for instance there was a guy who was a little overweight, but was a good
    sport about it, I would call him "Slim," and every time I saw him, I
    would say, "Hey Slim, we need to put some meat on your bones! For
    Pete's sake, eat something!" And he would say, "Wavy G, you old
    so-and-so, who has time to eat? Gimme a refill of that Slow-K, also one
    of the Procardin. How's business?" Then I would say, "Fine, did you
    ever get that driveway patched?" And we'd probably go back and forth
    like that for a little while. Then when there wasn't anthing else
    really to say, he would pay me using Cash or Credit Card, or another
    approved method of payment.

    DID YOU KNOW: A pharmacist is a man or woman who prepares, stores,
    compounds, and dispenses medicine! To be a Pharmacist I would have to
    attend College.

    In conclusion, my choice for a career is Pharmacist.

    Wavy G.
