Yep, we attend the same University and live about 30 mins apart!
Not too many places named Murfreesboro... speaking of which, I must drive there now. Dong wants to teach me about statistics.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

My Prof is named Dong Ye.
Be proud of me, BQ. I resisted the urge to be dirty. You just asked me what's Dong, and I gave you the real answer.

The guys here explain it perfectly
"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.
Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped.
Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses.
Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.
Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."

I'm leaving, on a jet plane...
Heading for Chicago in the morning so I probably won't be on much this week. I am taking my blu-tooth keyboard along though. That will help with the "posting from mu phone really sucks" blues.
Last call for anyone in the Chicago area. I'll be there through Thurs. night, flying back early afternoon on Friday. Post here, PM me, whatever...
