=== Impacts ===

 * More money: Like [http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=103 many others], Redmond is not welcomed here

=== Aspirations ===

  * Become more engaged with the [wiki:MarketingTeam Marketing Team] to help bring the SpreadUbuntu and UbuntuMagazine concepts to reality
 * Long-Term, which admittedly are not 100% Ubuntu related
  * [https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/1 Bug #1] squashed :-)
  * Complete the OOo translation with lots and lots of help.
  * Bring more folks over to Ubuntu via the [wiki:ColoradoTeam Colorado Team].
  * Continue to make this wiki entry the oddest thing anyone's ever seen.
  * I would love to secure a paid job working on (or for) Ubuntu.
  * Stay married to my wife who has become an Ubuntu-widow.
  * Teach my young boy the values of [http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/philosophy.html#AboutFreeSoftware Free Software] and [http://www.opensource.org/advocacy/faq.php Open Source] so that he can change the world too.
  * As some of my activities complete, I want to look for new opportunities to participate in the hopes that I can continue to help make, as [wiki:DanielHolbach Daniel Holbach] says, ''Ubuntu Rock!''
