Same here. Probably too comfortable with honest work to even think of developing that set of skills.

Ah, the ideas for taverns I had over the years... to have a piano player just improvising for herself (knew a lady who'd like to do that, but she died meanwhile) and taking no orders; to have only the music I like; to serve food as of fifty or eighty years ago, strictly local; to imitate nobody; to have real fruit juices and not the anything-goes-with-grapes (the blueberry juice you remember is gone, now it's 7% blueberry and the rest is grape and some blackberry); to serve turkish coffee only with džezva and fildžan (had one in Pirot few years ago, the South is stubborn!); to serve nasuvo s makom, s krompirom, sa sirom (macaroni-like flat pastry with poppy seeds, potatoes, young cheese), ludajnače (pumpkin strudel) etc etc. And have absolutely nothing in english... perhaps printed at 40% size along with hungarian, german, italian...

Time enough, but I still think I'll never do that.

>Just (half) kidding.

The trouble with half kidding is that you never know (until much later, when you forgot all of it) which half is which, and which way does the dividing line go.
