If I didn't do this...

 

I wouldn’t have a podcast.  I’m not a talker.

I could never work for a newspaper.  Having some editor critique my every word or dictate subject matter would drive me bonkers.

Being a teacher is out of the question as I don’t really believe in the current educational system.  When I went through it I found it to be very restrictive and simply cranking a variety of people through a structure designed to have them all turn out the same, think the same and recite word for word a history that was rarely close to the truth.  At least today’s technology is forcing their hand to be more accurate.

Heaven forbid I become a salesman.  I could no sooner talk anyone into anything.  Okay, I take that back.  Pet rocks, I could have sold those.  They don’t break; they always work and never need batteries.  That must be the only product that does what it promises.

I like to think I am too honest to be in advertising, way too honest for politics and much too old for anything else.  So, blogging it is. 

Lucky you.
