I'm a computer scientist who loves the always enhancing software development process. After 30 years of business i'm still loving it. If you ask me if there is downside of it i have to say: maybe. Belonging to the company you are working for you will meet a lot of people - customers and colleagues. And possibly some of them will drive you crazy again and again. Indeed, some real damned bastards may cross your way :) So what can you do if you don't wanna end up in a "Psycho Therapy? My recipe:

Buy the following stuff: a nice electric guitar, a fat 100w head (50w works too :)), a big 4x12" cabinet.

Surf for a guitar tab of an awesome Ramones song. Mostly they are really easy to play. Hey - downstrokes only :)

Buy the album and check out a tutorial video. Plug in. Turn your stereo to 11. !!! PLAY IT LOUD !!!

I swear you can't stop playing and after your show all your bad feelings are definitely gone. You don't have to learn a hundred songs. Try playing as soon as possible. Some guy said that playing the same song in a loop is like a meditation. That's really ok for me.

Take care and stay healthy!
