If you look at the founders of this country, they were all well rounded. They don't do just one thing. Many of them were able to fill many shoes. I found that out when I came to the Midwest. Truck driver is also a technologist and a ASE mechanic and only in his mid twenty. Electrician is also a gardener. Painter is a hunter and fisherman...etc.
Ben Franklin was a scientist, inventor and a lawyer. How many people do you know who could accomplish that today?
And technology is helping to destroy people who could readily achieve this type of competency...my husband and I are pretty old school in that he can fix ANYTHING and I can make anything...that saves a LOT of money...but so much of what we do is a lost art...thanks in part to technology...
Well no, not lost art is you are willing to invest the time. I would rather make my own clothes and it fits nicely than buy it off the market (by the way, I can't do that) or make my own medicine or toothpaste or soap then use a bunch of chemical.
Yes...invest the time to learn...a story...I was at some type of event in Chicago and for some reason Rosey Greer the football player was there...doing his needlepoint...very unusual...

Oh yeah. I heard about this. It was the oddest thing. Know about football players excellent dancers (Dancing with the Stars), but needlepoint, oh how strange.
Remind me about a guy I know. He works as a technician for some major company, but he also teaches climbing. He would lead hikes and climbs. On his spare time, guess what he does, stain glass.
