I brew my own beer.... does that count for anything

Actually I am also one of the odd ones that tend to have alot of the "older" skills that my peers and the ones younger then me just dont seem to care about. 30-40 years ago Everyone had to learn to do things themselves or do without so it was common place to be able to sew,cook,work on the car,work with wood/leather/metal, hunt,fish etc etc... And in being able to do those things people ALSO understood what it took to do those thing WELL or to be a Master (or even journeyman) so thay appreciated the work involved and was willing to work and save or trade/barter to get what they wanted and take care of what they got...
