My adopted dad taught me that if you want to succeed in life be the very best (insert job here), or learn many things and you'll never go hungry. I've only been hungry a few times in my life.
Plus it turns on the SO to see me in a tool belt...
I'm also a bit ADD. Can't sit still for a minute and have to always be doing something. Drives the wife nuts I can't just sit and watch TV with her.
