#85. Rapper.  Without the imminent need for oxygen, he can easily defeat the fastest of the world's records (and subsequently meet his doppleganger on Ripley's Believe it or Not). Super fast rapping (Skip to 1:06 for Busta Rhymes and some super fast rapping)

I saw a billboard on my drive home from school advertising that there were going to be Chippendales at some Casino around here. That's why it was in my head. Just thought I'd let the folcs know that my mind's not constantly in the gutter. :p

87: Bug Exterminator - He'd be able to spot every termite infestation.
"You're better at this than I thought," she told him.
"At what?" Clark looked up at her quizzically.
"Dissembling."
"You didn't think I could lie?"

(79) The next Evel Knievel. He can just lift the motorcycle over the Grand Canyon.
(80) Pest control. He always knows exactly where those pesky squirrels have hidden their nest in your attic. Of course, being Clark, he'd probably insist on catching them alive and releasing them in the woods somewhere.
This *is* my happily ever after.

Per John's suggestion: 90 - Psychotherapist, because he's such a great listener.

91 - Social Worker - because no one cares like he does (also helps that he's a human lie detector)
Although, it's not technically a paying gig...
92 - Dad - Because he's so loving and great with kids.
92b - Foster Dad

93. Spy. There are all sorts of ways he could use his special skills. Although I have to admit a lot of those are along the lines of what he does as an investigative reporter.
93a. counter-intelligence agent. At some level I merge the history of Get Smart and L&C, don't ask me exactly why, Clark Kent is much smarter than Maxwell Smart, I guess mainly because we have a-our main characters go undercover as a honeymooning couple and b-our main characters get married to each other.
94. Professor
94a. Journalism/English
94b. History, he knows enough and is a good writer, which they want from professors.
94c. Georgraphy
94d. Anthropology/linguistics
94e. Physics. If he can keep up with Dr. Platte I am sure he could make it as a Physics professor.

94.f) Xenobiologist. (Who's going to argue?)
94.g) Professor with multiple doctor degrees in various fields. Genius like Dr. Klein - but less weird.

95. Lawyer. Especially good as a Perry Mason type, save falsely accused defendants by catching the real bad guys. He would not need to higher any private investiagators to help, or law clerks, or anyone. The one draw-back would be that he could work so fast he would not have many billable hours. Hmm, maybe he should be a government prosecutor, they get fixed salary not billable hours.

I think she was talking about Clark being one of the Chippendales - who're definitely not woodworkers...

97. Window wiper. He would not need any support to do skyscrapers, and would never worry about falling.

I'm so glad I came back to check out the boards after a really long day. This is the best laugh I've had all week. Thank you. (And yes, Marcus, you're thinking of a different kind of Chippendale...) :p
