Summary

This quote implies that before making the decision to retire, one should spend a week at home and observe the content aired on daytime television. The rationale behind this suggestion might be to expose individuals to the kind of mundane or uninteresting programming that could potentially be a part of their daily lives once they retire. By immersing themselves in this experience, individuals can assess if they are ready for a lifestyle that may lack the stimulation and intellectual engagement associated with work, helping them make a more informed decision about their retirement plans.

I love making people laugh and feel good, and that's awesome and special for me to be able to do that, but there really is nothing like kicking ass whether it's on a major scale, or whether it's in more of a dramatic fashion.

Great abilities are not requisite for an Historian; for in historical composition, all the greatest powers of the human mind are quiescent.
