A fatal flaw

"Cauliflower is nothing but a cabbage with a college education" ~ Mark Twain

I have found the flaw in residential colleges. If you put a bunch of very intelligent, interesting people in a small area they will get exactly zero work done. Yes, I spent the last hour and a half debating the ethics of marriage and adoption with my floor mates. Yes, then we calculated the energy used by an elevator going up two floors...in kilo calories. Yes, I have more homework to do.

I remain, very busy,
Georgie

Time efficiency is so very overrated. Some of the best moments of my life have come out of wasting time.

Enjoy it, darlin'.

(I once spent a lazy afternoon calculating the stopping distance of a car going at the speed of light...and then the stopping distance during rain.)
