I grew up wanting to be Captain Nemo from 20000 Leagues Under the Sea. To build the largest most equipped atomic submarine and rule the world, and play the massive Pipe organ anytime I feel bored. My submarine was even better too, since it could fly and travel through the space as well as the oceans.
Then I ended up in Dentistry School; at first I really had fun playing with the dentist’s drill, tray of tools and of course the x-ray machine!
But then I hated it, because I’ve always wanted to study electronics and computers, so I left 3.5 years of dentistry school and studied Computer Science instead.
Later on I realized my fascination with Captain Nemo as a child was in fact towards Science, Sophisticated tools and equipment, which is why I went to dental school to begin with.
Right now I think I have the coolest job in the world, which requires science and sophisticated tools.
Captain Nemo my Arse!

Where did you get those cool shots, Rastin? They remind me of the unabridged version of Jules Verne books that I have, with all the original pictures.

Wikipedia, they are now public domain so no copyright issues. I was a big Jules Verne fan as a child

Rastin,
I believe you must have been a very intelligent, imaginative and innovative as a child. I wonder if you were also interested in 70’s rock music.
