You can keep my things, they've come to take me home



I hope everyone had an excessively productive and enjoyable day off... I add a completely obvious and in all other ways useless comment noting how nice the weather was....What a beautiful day!Carnegie Mellon has officially taken the lead in terms of colleges I just might kill to go to. The bulidings are beautiful, the people are nice, the curriculum is great, I am not smart enough to get in, and it costs too much. There. The good and the bad all in one breath. If somehow the stars align and I managed to get in, I think I would be one of the happier people you are liable to meet.In closing, a joke I've just read:Two turtles go camping and pack a cooler with sandwiches and beer. After three days of walking, they arrive at a great spot but realize they've forgotten a bottle opener. The first turtle turns to the second and says, "You've gotta go back and get the opener or else we have no beer.""No way," says the second. "By the time I get back, you will have eaten all the food.""I promise I won't," says the turtle. "Just hurry!"Nine full days pass and there's still no sign of the second turtle. Exasperated and starving, the first turtle digs into the sandwiches. Suddenly, the second turtle pops out from behind a rock and yells, "I knew it! I'm not fucking going!"***Ah. Delightfully corny.Well now. Paying no regard to what all ye critics say (ahemsteveanddan) I am off to read more of Angels and Demons That damn book is a page turner. Goodnight.
