So retreat to your journal, computer, typewriter, etc. and think of happiness and what it means to you. Think of everything you’ve ever wanted and find the good in...

Winning isn’t everything but wanting to win is.
You would achieve more, if you don’t mind who gets the credit.

Don’t fight too much or the enemy will know your art of war.
The only job you start at the top is when you dig a grave.
If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for...

I finally got around to watching Randy Pausch’s “Last Lecture”. Pausch was a C.S. professor at Carnegie Mellon who gave this talk in September 2007, shortly after he found out his pancreatic cancer was terminal. He was 47 when died on my birthday this past July.

A while ago in my AP Chemistry class, this one annoying kid and my friend were having a weird argument about who was better. The annoying kid said, “Well, at least I have a girlfriend!” to which I responded, “Whatever. Your girlfriend has 67 protons.” In response, the entire class, including the teacher, turned their heads to look at the periodic table on the wall. The...

The answer was so “profound” that the Professor shared it with colleagues, and the sharing obviously hasn’t ceased… Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or Endothermic (absorbs heat)?
