But in the sense of a hobby, even the most mundane activities can be quite rewarding. I read an account of a person who was restoring an old ship model that was built plank on frame. As he was removing the planks he discovered that the original builder had written the days current events on the underside of the planks he was installing that day. This writing would never be seen once the model was built, but he spent his time doing it anyway. How you use your time is for you to choose, and should not be determined by how much someone is willing to pay you.

Yet the old saying is time is money. You are free to choose; however, you are not free from the consequences of your choices.

There used to be good questions to ask on a first date like "Jeepers, creepers, where'd you get those peepers..." and "What's new pussycat? Whoa-oh-whoa-whoa-whoa..."; alas, those days are gone.

Best follow up questions:

"Are you sure? Why don't you try another whiff?"
