It's now been a few months since I'm become what in Mormon culture is jokingly known as a "menace to society." Meaning, I'm 25 and not married. Now, until recently I haven't particularly felt any different. I'm still looking to date and hopefully get married eventually, and spending most and/or way to much of my time in school. Nothing particularly changed at 25
But, looking ahead, I can see it will be short order before I may become a legitimate bonifide menace to society.
What's the difference? A job... with a salary... and free time.
What to do with those...?
I know, how about this:

It seems too good to pass up, I mean, my OWN TANK. While I'm at it, I'll probably start buying parts for my own machine shop, and working on secret projects. Building armor, debilitating weapons, awesome spy gear and devote myself to a life of fighting crime and terrorists.
So, in a relatively short time, I'll go from mild mannered Jeremy, to yeah, Batman.
I know on some levels, most of me thinks "awesome". Indeed, it probably is awesome as a second choice, but the first choice of having a wife and kids = much more awesome. Which is why I probably will somehow restrain my desire for a tank and toys, because, let's face it, Bruce Wayne doesn't have the best luck with women, and that's why I'd be in that situation in the first place.
But what a fun dream...
Dude...I'll go in on the tank with ya!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you can buy your kid a tank when that happens. Or you can make a frame and motor for one and just build one for your kid...that would be a great engineering project for you.
ReplyDeleteYeah having your "love interest" get blown up is definitely something near to bad luck so stick with the wife and kids option :) definitely worth it!!!! Btw, I love your blog! Very fun and interesting to read :)
