My car is an extremely expensive-to-maintain German car.  I made a point 
of learning auto repair just so I wouldn't get screwed by a mechanic. 
I've found that I enjoy it, when I have the time.  It seems to me that 
the talents used in software and hardware debugging are similar to those 
involved in repairing cars (and other mechanisms, for that matter).
Peace...  Sridhar
