You seem to think that what might appeal to you is of universal appeal.
Oh, and typically, you're not waiting for a new generator to arrive,
you're waiting for a part on your existing generator to arrive.

I get a kick out of you "full-time retirees." You've got nothing of
consequence to do all day long, all week long, all month long, so you
have to find a zillion little hobbies to fill out your dance card. Golf,
model airplanes, RV'ing, firearms, motorcycling, bluegrass festivals,
guitars. What's next, line dancing?

I guess that liberal arts degree did not leave you with the
intellectual curiosity sufficient to keep yourself amused without
someone telling you what THEY want you to do,

... or maybe you just need the money

I like the sort of work clients pay me to do. It's intellectually
challenging, in some cases it makes a difference for various groups of
people, I get to meet and work with interesting people, it provides me
with travel opportunities, I get to wear dress suits and ties (

), et
cetera.

I'd go crazy trying to fill up my days and weeks with golf, model
airplanes, stamp collecting, et cetera. I'm sure many of you find
intellectual and psychic rewards in such pursuits, but I don't.

I really enjoy what I do for a living. I guess you didn't.
