Now there's an idea! How 'bout joining a bluegrass band? I play the mandolin. (Sorry ShotoJuku. No drums allowed in bluegrass! But you could play the washboard or something.)

That bites about your guardian parent Dewisant. I like your attitude that you are the "little engine that could". The past DOES NOT have to determine the here and now. YOU can make your own future and you have…well done
Working for Boeing for 27 years is an awesome accomplishment. I think you should "rock on" and learn at least some chords…because according to the Tom Petty sound "Into the great wide open"… "The Sky was (is) the limit!"dewisant Wrote:I played violin as a child and was good enough to keep playing the rest of my life. I gave up because my guardian parent was a violent alcoholic and life was always my fault. I learned to lie, cheat, and steal...after getting out of the service I almost worked for the CIA, a job I wish I had taken. I now have almost 27 years at Boeing and I have calmed down considerably even though I still have that little engine that could inside of me. I own several guitars, but have never learned to play...yet!

Sitting behind a computer doing research sounds like my dream job. Give me a cubicle, a few flickering fluorescent lights, and no windows and I would be in heaven.

It's sunny and 70 degrees all 365.25 days a year where I work. The closest outside window is over a quarter mile away. I work in a REALLY BIG building.

I'm looking into getting my Automotive Service Excellence certifications again. After 31 years of working on aircraft I would like to be able to have some pride in what I do. I've always worked on cars, trucks, motorcycles, boats, and now aircraft, but it's the cars, trucks, and motorcycles that I really love to work on.

Writers' Workshop - The University of Iowa
This looks like something worth doing! I would have to practice up on my writing just to get in, but what a place....

It's one of the more well-known and well-regarded in the country. Competition is fierce. It would be quite the accomplishment, though!

I've been told to go by two teachers...I have disregarded the advice probably to my own detriment.
