I use a program called SBaGen, a BiNaural sound genreator that assists in various mental exercises, you might want to check it out.

Real role-payer's LARP!! (that sounds a bit elitist, but if you know the reputation you acquire if you mention LARP'ing at ANY workplace, it's not, it is kinda like consigning yourself to the 6th circle of Hell, voluntarily)

Funny how people associate scat with the word scatological rather than the singing style. I guess it comes from to much exposure to goatse rather than Mel Torme or Ella Fitzgerald.

Summed up succintly (IMHO) by Al.

Great spirits have always encountered opposition from mediocre minds. The mediocre mind is incapable of understanding the man who refuses to bow blindly to conventional prejudices and chooses instead to express his opinions courageously and honestly.

in Effort vs. Outcome on danielmiessler.com | grep understanding
Wow, that sounds familiar...I'm involved in some very far-ranging hobbies, from salt-water reef tanks and parachuting, to custom made tube-amps and speaker designs, to gourmet cooking and beer brewing. All of these things I consider a HOBBY, and hence I tend to obsess about them, as long as they are still FUN. I go to bed thinking of push/pull directly heated triode amps vs. SET Amps and not worry that I am going off the deep end. I have noticed that these activities that remain FUN, I tend to become something of an expert in, as time progresses because I never try to learn to much, I just want to DO THEM, hence I never seem to give them up. The things in my life I try to master or excel at I invariably give up on because they seem like they have too much work for too little reward. I've always attributed this to my particularly messed up mind, to my own Work/Reward formulae that governs my individual learning process. For me I have found that I need to keep the motivation for these hobbies "pure", as opposed to doing them for notoriety or acclaim, even if the acclaim is from others in the same hobby. What do the commercials for sports say "For the Love of the Game"....
