Yeah this is funny AND sad.

Glad our kids bypassed University. Unfortunately they went into the arts!<...snip...>

I hope your kids are happy.

I went into the arts, and although had a short stint as an engineer, I don't regret it at all.

Sure, I would have made a lot more money if I stayed in the electronics biz, but I'm enjoying my life. Going to work is such a joy, I eagerly anticipate each and every gig. It's the most fun I can have with my clothes on.

Life is short, making a living doing what you love to do is priceless.

I'm of retirement age, and have no plans to do so. I have 20 gigs this month, I'm doing what I love to do, people applaud me ever 3–5 minutes, it's a party, and I'm a big part of the life of that party. I get into that zone where there is no me, just the music coming through me and the energy feeding back from the audience.

My father discouraged me from having a career in the arts. He did it out of his love for me, because "poor, starving artist" came to mind. But I misbehaved and joined a rock and roll band as soon as I graduated.

If I had to do it again, I'd skip the 5 years I wasted as a Cable TV engineer. But I did it because I was trained in electronics, and wondered what it was like to be normal. For me, normal was soooooo overrated.
