The biggest attraction to programming for me was the fact that every program had line numbers and program commands were written in all caps. .

The only way one can get bored with programming is by… not being a programmer. Nothings compares to the joy of creation, especially if the individual creations manage to go way beyond the initial expectations.

Well it is so TRUE
You can’t be bored programming, there is always new stuff to play with, etc.
One drawback is as you can do so much, you end up with 10.000 projects you would like to do and have no time to do them … but well that’s another story.
