| I think its pretty obvious that "sit on a beach" is a metaphor for being able to do whatever you want not literally sitting on a beach for the rest of your life. At the same time, you guys really can't imagine relaxing on a beach for more than a few hours? Like i'm not really a beach person but back when i lived near the ocean i spent the odd saturday just unwinding on the beach with a book. Certainly wouldn't want that every day, but y'all acting like it would be impossible to enjoy say abeach vacation for a few days seems crazy to me. |

| Nature is wonderful because it will relax and center oneself while making it clear why we created civilization. |

| I “retired” about a year ago. Back to actively doing some tech industry analyst stuff with some folks I know. Keeps me as busy as I care to be. |

| I love the beach. Living near the beach is nice. You can sit on it, walk on it, swim on it, surf on it, run on it, fish on it. Better than a cement sidewalk, IMO. |
