I'm 27 and have no desire to go on it...
Just not my thing. I email my friends or talk on the phone, no need to do the myspace thing.

I'm 30 and have absolutely no desire

If you truly have a desire to be in this field
Do not give up. It may take a while for you to find job, just keep applying. Make notes as you go along of those areas you are having the most difficulty with and study prior to taking your next test. All you need is to get your foot in the door. Can not tell you how many test I failed before finally passing one. Once you find employment, you may find you love it as much as I do.

I have no desire to talk politics.

That would be true most especially here .. this is not a place for that sort of heavy discussion. I prefer face to face. And, just to be clear, I too am of the mind that we certainly need to be vigilant, and I was merely responding to the fact that I found it ironic that this particular day was chosen .. I will be watching the Boston Pops in 10 minutes and thanking God for having the freedoms I enjoy. I did not need to be chided as we all have opinions.

but no desire to learn a new trade at 58 years old

No. I'm making excellent money doing this (IC). I have no desire to leave this profession.
