Lightbulb time trouble..

Is there ANYONE who can suggest something to me and a few of my colleagues....

We work in the corporate sector and so spend hour upon hour at handling agent lounges... endless cups of coffee, cigarettes and newspapers... Masses of time on standby at home or on "rest periods" at work.

There isn't enough freedom to get a second job (or perhaps we've simply overlooked something we could do on our laptops) and degree courses..? Well, we don't want to change career... but should be studying SOMETHING. Well, we're pretty hot at languages now and we can name all the country capitals! so what else?

Become bridge aficianados or carry our darts boards around? Or what??

What would YOU do!!!!!

Or, purchase an older general aviation twin and maintain the example to perfection.
It's worth it, when the refueler mentions....'Gosh, your airplane looks brand new'....and is amazed when you tell him...'It's forty years old.'
