Classic Rock Bottom

WHAT CLASSIC ROCK (OR JUST PLAIN ROCK) ARE YOU LISTENING TO?

So what are you listening to right now?  Any genre is cool.

Here we are,
still on the desert island with lots of CDs left to enjoy but no funny caricatures, jokes, or even quotes worth repeating in my intermezzos. Well, perhaps it's time to start thinking about what will I do once I get back to the "real world". Before I left, I told my boss to take his Regular blades and shove them up his a**. Or better yet, don't disassemble the cutters, just turn on the machine at high speed and sit on the shaft, for a dramatic effect. You think I still got that job?

#MeToo, but just to be sure I should focus on finding something where I can truly blossom. Maybe even my own firm, service, or... whatever. Be my own boss, as nature intended, and not a piece of the puzzle on a production line. Those things are magnets for morons.

For some reason, I got the JP song "Grinder" stuck on the loop in my head, maybe I should open an Angle Grinder business. You know, to be a sub-contractor to a huge Construction company. I can still be my own boss and not have to worry about finding a job, but... And there is a huge BUT... I won't do those big a** grinders you need to use both hands to hold them. Oh no. No sir. A small grinder will do just fine for me. If I can hold it in one hand, that's all I need. I'll be going around the construction site and grind sharp edges. To protect the small children getting hurt while they work there, of course.

Now, this is a must. I have to think about the cons of this job. I always forget to think about those things until it's too late. So, what's bad about Agle Grinding? Oh yeah, I know... those flying sparkles, or stars, or whatever you call them... Ptzzz. Yeah, I think the technical term is ptzz and ptzz's when you see them flying at you in plural. I need a cheap solution for this problem. I don't want to be one of those entrepreneurs whose business fails within the first year because they went nuts on expenditures. I think this guy got it.

He-he. Looking at this picture, I'm thinking of all those silly Hollywood movies where the criminals choke their victims with plastic bags. You can't do that with a work safety device. Or those crazy warnings on shopping bags " Choking Hazard!" Yeah, right. Pfft. Look up there! That's a poster boy for ptzz's. And... it's a 2-for-1 because it will pass for a mask as well.

I have Reload on cassette. I think I have Death Magnetic, I'll have to look. I have the Journey, Kiss and Black Sabbath albums too.

Besides an Angle Grinder, what else can I do when I'm back from the deserted Island?
You can drop me suggestions if you'd like, but I won't consider them.
Just kiddin', do it if you must.

Let's see.
I used to be an electrician.
Didn't like it.
The cons of the job were; a dry environment and too many keys for the fuse boxes. You could waste the whole morning looking for the right one. Then, when you finally managed to open the box it is full of dust. After spending all this time on the Island and around water I don't think I want to go back to the sore and cracked skin type of job, unless...
I can figure out a way to keep myself hydrated at all times, and any cost.
