Everyone should try not speaking at all for a couple days. It is
an interesting experience, very educational. Trust me; I know
these things.

elsj (John E Elsbree):
There are 21 days left between now and May 12.
A hollow voice says, "Thesis."

Read 'em. Read _Atlas Shrugged_ (by Ayn Rand) first. It is the greatest book
ever written. It is the only novel I know of that truly demonstrates the
importance of reason in all aspects of life.

mugambo (shippert (some call me 'tim')):
While working on my thesis the other day I was surprised to find that I had
accidentally confirmed the discovery of cold fusion. This came as a shock
not only because my thesis has nothing to due with cold fusion or electro-
chemistry or anything else of any worth, but also because I found that it
existed in my former roommate's laundry pile. Of course, this made reproducing
the results rather difficult, even if I would want to. Nevertheless, I
feel that such a discovery warrants calling press conference to announce
my findings, which incidentally should also get my name in all the papers
and maybe even wind up getting me on Letterman. All for the sake of science,
of course.

opus (Mr. P. Opus):
Tell me, maiden, will you wed
a man about to lose his head?
For half an hour you'll be a wife,
then the dowry's yours for life.

rlcarr (Rich Carreiro):
In the grimy Cambridge air, with a slide rule in my hand.
Got a Coop bill in the mail, my last dollar near at hand.
I'm a long way from home. And I crave vacation so.
But there's not a prayer for me, cuz I've got 3 years to go.
When the weekend comes at last, and I put my books away.
I go off to seek relief in the best of many ways.
I get my hopes all raised, but then she won't go out.
So I'm cooped up in my room, working on a drinking bout.
Up in building 54 (up in building 54), a big final set to roll.
But I'll end up with a 'D', like the draftees that I know.
You can't dodge the draft, like you can a physics class.
Mrs. Luck please pray for me. Save from from the Army brass.
This old 'Tute has got me down. It's no earthly good to me.
But I'm stuck here for eight terms, just as stoned as I can be.
When I finally do get out, Uncle Sam will send me there.
So I'm screwed no matter what, in the grimy Cambridge air.
When I finally do get out, Uncle Sam will send me there.
So I'm screwed no matter what, in the grimy Cambridge air.
