That's exactly what I wanted to emphasise on, what we do when we are not doing electronics.

Please allow me the opportunity to repeat this post. Let's put aside the tech side.

 

Yeah, but in a room full of nerds what else are we going to do? I could lie and say I date a different beautiful girl every night, but that is a fantasy.

My job has gotten weird. 6 or 7 days a week weird, and has lasted most of this year and will continue on to the next. I like having a job, I'm not too sure I like having this one though. Gotta have some time to write and wire.

I know, but still, we engineers and scientists are leading the world of technology entertainment enjoyed by a majority of non-tech people

 

I have to exclude myself from the heights of Mt. Olympus, as I am neither an engineer nor a scientist. But I read a lot. History is the most interesting, but some political thrillers are fun. I do not have block of time enough to really enjoy good novels - I read in snatches. Either I have changed, or there isn't much good science fiction any longer.

I do watch movies, thanks to Netflix, while I pedal the exercise bike.

 

when i am back from school, build robots, fix stuff, build things, sit on the computer, and when it is winter, get into unintentional snowball fights

 

Run around the block twice,got a head cold for the effort.

We need to start a separate thread on that one. I'm seeing a new crop of writers who are coming along nicely.

 

Agreed - I'll get some authors & titles to post in a bit.

Leading us where?

 

watching sports, playing computer games, and spending time with my dogs

 

I'm a semi-retired EE. Does consulting engineering. Runs sport fishing boat on Lake Erie in summer. Hunting activities are curtailed somewhat since my 400 power nose died (Labrador Retriever).
Have 2 children in college, so will be short of money for next few years.

That's not hard to figure out? A Life of easiness and efficicency to experience or find more complaints
