Do you work on the land for a few months of the year and spend the rest doing almost nothing? Smiley

Don't go getting it soon either - it isn't very fun. Though you can recover (to a point) surprisingly quickly.

Umm... I wasn't planning to. But thanks anyway.

I was trying to win an award in the "random and slightly disturbing comment" catagory.

I disagree, anyways. A little chronic hunger never hurt anybody.

I was thinking more than a little Tongue

...those who have racked up tens of thousands of posts saying the same thing Smiley  Anyone whose life affords them the luxury of spending several hours per day posting inconsequential messages on an inconsequential message board can't have it too rough.

I wasn't referring to myself, J-Mann, but your point is well taken - internet access of long duration and convenience is a relative privilege, though many poor people do have some internet access.

Or rather, time is really the ultimate luxury.
I dunno. You know how much free time hunter-gatherer economies tend to have? And while they're better nourished and live longer than primitive farming economies on far less toil, I wouldn't exactly call them well off by modern standards. Smiley

A lack of free time is more a feature of an urban, industrialised society than anything else, yeah...
