I'm gonna be a Engineer just as soon as I graduate, too. Although I
must say my only experience with the actual work was not nice. I
co-oped for 273 hours in a small office doing just about nothing. Fix
this drawing. "computerize" this one. Make a drawing for this part.
blah blah blah. That's why I'm going to keep an active interest in
philosophy... it's good for the soul.

Yea, I'm seeing the end of it too. And so begins the great search for
"new material"...
> tv hurts.
It's been years since I watched any significant amount of television.
Too boring. And besides, I have /much/ better things to do with my
time. Or result of this is that I am profoundly ignorant of all of
modern culture. Music, sports, movies, etc. I know very little.
Them's the breaks, eh?

Television, n. Box populi. Life support system for a consumer
consciousness.
Marx called religion "the opiate of the people"; television, as
implemented
under state-enforced monopoly, can only be described as "the people's
crack"
-- a brain-destroying drug administered through a glass tube. Soma for
shut-ins.
