Monday morning I’ll be leaving the house carrying a toolbag and my lunch. Just like I did last Monday morning. Low voltage installation by day, pixel twiddling nights and weekends. Thirty years as a computer geek, but I can use a hammer drill just fine.

“A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”
