Anyone who reads this page knows that I rarely if ever talk about my own college experience, as I don’t think it’s all that relevant given the decades since it occurred.

I’m making an exception re studying. I vividly recall every day passing these 2 guys in the hallway/sort-of-lounge place of our dorm, splayed out wit…h books all over the table, assorted caffeinated drinks and salty snacks at the ready. I’d see them at 9am; they’d still be there at 9pm when I was going out. Once, one of them asked, “how come we never see you studying?” My reply? “If you saw me studying, I wouldn’t be studying.”
