I would also be a lot of fun to take on vacation.

I hope I get to be the boss someday. True, I would have a better shot of being the boss if I spent more time, say, working and less time blogging about how I'd hope to be the boss, but that's beside the point.

Being my boss would be great. Not only does he have me as an employee -- I may not be the most productive employee but I am lot of fun to work with -- but he gets to go on great vacations.

Great vacations like when he went to the Isle of Wight last year. Most people have only heard of the Isle of Wight, I'd assume, because it's where Paul McCartney was going to rent a cottage when he was 64 -- where his grandchildren, Vera, Chuck, and Dave would visit him - so when I heard my boss was going there, I naturally assumed that he, too, would rent a cottage in the Isle of Wight (if it's not to dear.)

But he didn't even have to scrimp and save. Instead, he stayed at the St. Maur, which is pretty much the best Isle of Wight Hotel you can find.

From what the boss told me, the Isle of Wight is sort of like southern California crossed with quaint English countrysides. They have great luxury hotels and sandy beaches, record levels of sunshine, and even a music festival which this year is featuring The Police, The Sex Pistols, and Kaiser Chiefs. He certainly looked rested and relaxed when he came back.

So I hope that someday I, too, get to be my boss and travel off to the beautiful Isle of Wight. I just don't want to wait until I'm 64 to do it.
