Childhood AmbitionsHoratioFellatio writes:
"At the tender age of 13, my little hairless clockweights squirted their first dose of testosterone into my blood stream. The result was a mental alarm clock shouting, 'I NEED TO LOOK AT GIRL'S FANNIES.' I reasoned that if I became a Gynaecologist, I'd get to look at fannies all day.
"It was only when I reached the age of about 16 and learnt about STD's and yeast infections that I realised I'd only ever get to see diseased ones."
Tell us about your childhood career ambitions and the moment at which your aspirations crumbled into a pile of broken dreams.

Too tall to be a fighter pilotAfter reading lots of biggles books and making many airfix planes as a boy I really really really wanted to be a fighter pilot... until I grew too tall - If you're over 6 foot tall before you have to use the rocket-powered ejector seat, you will be the right size after you use it. Didn't fancy the horrible burns you get if you're shot down either. Apparently modern plastic surgery techniques were refined on WWII fighter pilots, who came to be known as the Guinea Pigs.
Would have been cool to have a moustache and call everyone Dusty and Algy though...
