From the Resident Hippie at OC Tech :>)
And now for a little poetry from grad school:
"Once more upon the waters! yet once more!
And the waves bound beneath me as a steed
That knows his rider. Welcome, to their roar!
Swift be their guidance, wheresoe'er it lead!
Though the strain'd mast should quiver as a reed,
And the rent canvas fluttering strew the gale,
Still must I on; for I am as a weed,
Flung from the rock, on Ocean's foam, to sail
Where'er the surge may sweep, or tempest's breath prevail."
Byron, Childe Harold's Pilgrimage, Canto the Third, #2

Sports Addiction
I have lately been engulfed with Carolina football. I thas made me resist reality and reorder sanity. I wonder if there's some cure for that. Am I the only one as obsessed with something such as this? Can this be looked at as quixotic or deranged? What makes us do this anyway? Tribal longing? Catharsis? Plain stupidity?
Inner World
This is my dog, Max. He occupies most of my time when I'm at home. Even though he is kind of a mutt, he looks exactly like a purebred Golden Retriever. He is about to turn eleven years old. As he ages he is getting very snooty and testy. He hates being left alone and demands treats. Do you have any pets? What are they like? I feel that pets actually own us. We feed and take care of them and they really don't perform any labor for us. Do you agree that we are the real pets?

Humanities
What would you say is the most influential event in the history of mankind? Is is religion-influenced? Sports? Politics? Please give me your thoughts.
