Survey #1

I'm home sick at the moment. So this seems like a good time to invite the first comments ever on this weblog, now that it has a comments feature. Here's a survey for y'all. Enjoy, but don't get too worked up about it.

Question 1: What's the weirdest occupation for someone to be called out of retirement from?

In the movies, some emergency is always causing some rogue physicist or profiler to be called out of retirement, to work grudgingly with the former coworkers who prompted his departure in the first place. But does this ever happen with, say, rogue pet groomers?

Question 2: What emergency would call the ____________ from Question 1 out of retirement?

Question 3: What job would the retired ____________ be leaving to go back to his/her old job? Would they miss him/her?

Question 4: Once back at the old job, would he or she fall in love? Because, really, that's all that matters.

Question 5: Oh, right. The emergency. How'd that work out for everybody?
