As Adam Clayton, U2's stately and sexy bassist, gets ready to celebrate another year in the life, he may look back and wonder, what if? What if I hadn’t met those Lypton Village kids in high school? What if I didn’t have that crazy Afro and wild clothing? Why did I pick up a bass guitar instead of a saxophone?
To help put Adam’s mind at ease, I offer the following alternative occupational paths for the "musical conscience" of U2.
Investment Banker: Call London, call New York, call Chicago. Schmooze with the big boys and set the money to music—all in a day's work for the world's favorite financial guru. Adam's look, especially the square-rimmed glasses, would convince any investor to go with Bank Adam.
Cardiovascular Surgeon: Who better to bring your heart back to full health than Adam? He's got that doctorial look about him (his PopMart getups alluded to this ability). You'd love to see him walking down the hall after surgery, clad in a smart doctor’s coat, to let you know your loved one was going to be okay.

Concierge for a Five-Star Hotel: "Welcome to the Four Seasons. May I assist you with your bags, or arrange a lovely dinner?" Adam would set up every guest with an unbelievable evening, and wouldn't care about the tip; he'd do it to pursue poshness for every man. He'd get the tip anyway.
Airline Pilot: If you imagine yourself sitting in first class, enjoying a beverage, you can hear Adam's voice over the intercom. "We anticipate an on time arrival, so sit back relax, and enjoy the flight." Adam would be one of those pilots who make you feel comfortable, and puts your mind at ease.
Whatever the alternative path, Adam would have been one of those folks who made everything look easy and everyone around him look good, not taking, but deserving, all the credit. Happy Birthday, Adam.
