Well I've been an amateur computer enthusiast since I was a kid, but never got good programming and want to learn more about the interface between programming languages and the physical stuff. Physics because when the aliens come I don't want to look like such an r-tard. Philosophy because engaging with your own mind is the lever that moves the world.
Ancient greek because I've recently returned to reading the Bible and I want to understand the intentions of the word better. Woodworking because everyman should develope a skill with his hands (particularly when I've spent a career cultivating the use of language, I could use something silent and useful).
