I know that I said I would have these weekly topics up every Monday, and here it is Thursday.  Hey, better late than never.

Over the past week or two, chances are you have been contacted one, two, or maybe even three times to write a meme about yourself.  The purpose of memes is to learn things about others that we may have not normally known about others.  (Sound familiar - the purpose of the group that I started long before the memes became popular.)

If you did a meme, please bring it over to the group for us to all learn more about each other.

Now on to this week's topic... when you were a kid or teenager (or maybe even still today), what did you really want to be when you grew/grow up?  And why did/do you want to be a _____________?

Here goes:

 I have always wanted to be involved with law enforcement.  I still have a secret desire to do this.  Whether it be for a local police/sheriff or working for the FBI, I have always had an interest in being a detective and solve the crime by following the clues. (Maybe this is why I have such a deep fascination with Batman.) My wife always gives me a hard time about it, but says I probably would have made a good detective because I notice things that most people overlook or completely miss.

So what did/do you want to be when grew/grow up?  Please share and don't forget to bring your meme.

I wanted to be a pilot when I grew up. A friend of mine won a radio contest a few years ago where the prize was a "Discovery Flight" at the local airport and he gave it to me since he knew I always wanted to be a pilot. My pilot for this trip looked like he was 15, but he took me up and described everything he was doing in the 4 passenger plane.

Then he said I could fly over the lake for 5 minutes!! IT was so cool! He gave me my Ceiling and Floor and I flew by myself!!!!

I wanted to be good-looking and rich.

Now that I've achieved both- I just hope to get a good tight grip on reality.....

Speaking of reality, I could always go back to school, get a psych degree and help people with strange comic book obsessions...................................

When I was 6 years old, I helped work on the Adlai Stevenson campaign.  My mother said I was a born politician.  If she were alive today, I wonder what she would think about me being such a conservative.  My meme is http://activerain.com/blogsview/27331/Memed-I-am-I

I wanted to be a politician but today I really enjoy running other candidate campaigns.

I wanted to be an attorney. I think the only reason I didn't go to law school after college is because I was poor and in debt up to my eyeballs!  Sometimes Ido still secretly want to try to go back and get a law degree.
