I think by 10, I had seriously considered some form of medicine (to the point that I was a premed major going into my first year of college, only to switch to math between 1st & 2nd year). I oscillated between specializing in dentistry/orthodontics and allergy control. I even did a day at the office of an allergist family friend. Once I took the pre-med seminar class during that first year, I realized a career in medicine (in any form) was completely out of the question for me.
But, at 10, I wanted to be a doctor. (At 7 or 8, I had wanted to be a meterologist.) By 10, I knew I wasn't good enough in baseball to go very far. :)

I wanted to play football or going into the military. Then in high school one chilly friday evening I destroyed my knee playing football and that one play took both options away.

Fullback for the Washington Redskins and John Riggins successor. My dad told me I wasn't big enough to be a fullback, maybe a tailback. Still hurts a bit.

When I was a kid I always wanted to be an astronaut, Then one weekend when I was 7, my parents took me and my brother on a special trip to tell us that we were getting another brother. Unfortunatly for them, the Columbia exploded during that trip and ruined the whole trip. I also lost interest in being an astronaut that trip. I didn't really have a dream job for awhile after that, or at least nothing that really held my interest for more than a year or so.

I remember wanting be an Imagineer for Walt Disney and design theme park rides. In our sixth grade class prophecy (age 12) which I got to read at our graduation, it said I was going to be President of the United States. We all know how that turned out!!

When I was young, I wanted to be second baseman for the New York Yankees.
Didn't happen.

Man, I went 0-3 (0-4, I guess, since I'm not named "Peter")
