Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
My mother retired at 70 and moved to a college town where they had a special school for retired people. She took classes, got out and socialized, even took some field trips.
No, fuck no, no to the nth.
ETA that was to msbelle, not to developing hobbies.
I hate to use it even in a tweet.
A thousand times no.
people, develop hobbies!
I'm WRITING A BOOK.
oh god what more do you people want?
heh
Ha, I'm trying to imagine you as a teacher
I meant at JPL, where it's mostly writing for the website and giving tours.
Ah. That would be fun, not explodey.
Does anyone here write thru in their normal writing, like business writing?
Only if I'm describing a McDonald's Drive Thru.
THANK YOU! I rewrite everything my bosses put together and I have never thought of myself as a very good writer, but good googaly moogaly, they are all over the place with composition and grammar and then that spelling which has been driving me bonkers. I just keep changing it. I need to work my way back through all of their business templates. I bet it is spelled that way on our proposals.

My dad just started law school. But not as a hobby: with the intent of practicing some form of public service law when he gets out at 73.
(Of course it's not a hobby. He won't even admit that he retired from his old job -- he "decided not to go to that job any more" so he could do this instead.)
(I'm awfully proud of him, but someone shoot me if I'm this workaholic in 30 years, mmkay?)
