I can turn Gold into lead, but getting it the other way is the problem.

Turning lead into gold is easy: Step 1) Start with 1 atom of lead Step 2) using a large particle acclerator Step 3) strike the lead with a charged particle Step 4) in just such a way causing the release of the extra protons Step 5) Remove gold atom repeat at step 1 until sufficient quantity of gold exists.

Honestly, what I did yesterday. We cleared some land to make a pond this summer on our property and yesterday they lifted the open burning ban that comes every summer and so I spent the day burning a huge pile of brush, stumps, logs. It was very wet as it has been raining heavily the last few days so I used a leaf blower to create a forge effect to force the initial fire we got going to get hotter and hotter to the point where it was dry enough and hot enough to sustain itself. The rest of the day involved sitting in a lawn chair, drinking beer, reading a good book[^], occasionally tossing in the branches that were sticking out on the edges, rolling a few stumps into the hotter area, roasting hot dogs and watching the fire didn't spread.

It's a weeny bit more expensive than digging gold out of the ground, though.

I didn't see that in the requirements list! That will require extra development!

Enjoy the occasional Newcastle or Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, play with my Wii (no sickos, the Nintendo one), read a book, try and learn something new about programming or web development, go see movies, hang out with friends, etc, etc etc...

I'm sorry - what is this spare time that you speak of? This is spoken in a strange tongue. Well - I guess I spend my time with my wife and kids, or here on CP. Oh yes - I also play squash a lot, it's great fun and great exercise as well.

Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.

While fun I fail to see how squashing the cushion of your swivel chair while you sit in it playing on your PC counts as exercise. :doh:

Actually I was refering to being at the office (non-spare-time), yet still not working. But you make a good point too.

blogging (I'm writing the series of firebug tutorials in my blog.. I need to add two more parts to that series. I hope im gonna finish this series this weekend and I need to review at least once.. ) 2) read the feeds (including Codeproject's latest articles) by using Google Reader 3) participate in Codeproject forum, DevX, MS ASP.NET forum 4) read some technical articles (My current interest are C# 3.5 new syntax, LINQ and Sliverlight.) ..... 5) swimming ( I can't swim very well so thinking to attend one class.) 6) watch the movie ( "Underdog" movie is really suck. "ratatouille" and "The Nanny Diaries" are very good movies that you should watch.. :) ) 7) play the guitar ya. that's all. :)

Hot water and soap does wonders. I'll tell you first hand if you don't learn to touch it and know what you are touching you shouldn't be cooking anything. You need to know how healthy fresh meat feels to the touch so you can recognize bad meat, etc... Your problem is you are thinking way too much about it. Have some hot water and soap handy and then just enjoy what you are doing. But I will say this. You should only cook if you want to. It should be something you are inspired to do. If you don't like handling raw meat maybe you'd enjoy vegetarian dishes. My wife and I cook a lot of meatless meals and there are some amazing things to eat that don't involve meat. Or... get precooked meat. The quality isn't quite as high but ... with your aversion to handling it maybe that's an option.
