Ryan-

Just finished reading your resume and since you asked.........I'll throw in my opinion.

It reads more like a story and kind of rambles in places.  Where you talk about your 2500 posts on other forums, is right in the mddle of a paragraph pertaining to something else.

My suggestion - Polish up on your writing skills for now and keep on fishin'.

Ryan -  It definitely flows a little better now.

If it was me - I'd remove the whole family history thing.  Not that I don't dig a very tight knit family, it's just that is doesn't necessarily pertain to helping one obtain sponsorship.

It's all about marketing these days.  The numbers you provided are fine, just that if a compnay could get 25,000 new customers by you putting their link in your siggy, you'd be a multi-millionaire and so would a lot of companies.  Great idea........just the numbers are a little unrealistic.

Keep at it - - I like the effort!!!
