Thanks Carlos! I was not ever gone... just taking a break from one hobby to concentrate on another.

Speaking of these two hobbies, my wife called me the other day to show me this scene from a Netflix series called Flipped. I have no idea what the show is about but this particular scene shows an auction fundraising event at a school. Girls bid on boys who will accompany them on some sort of date or activity. Little Eddie Turlock is introduced as a young lad that is obviously very low on the totem pole of desirability. The screen shots show the actual dialogue... I didn't add those!

Fishing and model airplanes are quintessential past times. Just wait. The wheel will turn. I hope.

Lol that hits close to home.
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

When my daughters were in elementary school, I asked them, "would you rather be a nerd or one of the popular kids?" I told them to look at this this way. If you are popular, you do what other people like to do. If you are a nerd, you do what YOU like to do.
