Don't let the fear of the time it will take to accomplish something stand in the way of your doing it. The time will pass anyway; we might just as well put that passing time to the best possible use.
Earl Nightingale

I've started putting Everything Seasoning on almost everything I eat. I mix it into mayo for sandwiches, throw it on burgers on the grill, sprinkle it on chicken in the pan. Try it.
I haven't read or seen LOTR. Everything I know about it has been pieced together from parodies and references in other media. The magic the gathering crossover set was probably the biggest exposure I've had.
Also a tech worker considering a major pivot. I have a fascination with electrical work so I'm wondering if taking on an apprenticeship might give me a chance to dip my toes in.
