disce pati: learn to endure

this is the lamest of the lame, but i'm bored. i have a list of things to do, things that have been building up for months, but they don't really interest me now that i have time to do them.

i figured that this week will be a test of my ability to set short term goals and accomplish them. short term goals like, watching atao's copy of eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, reading a novel, and going to the gym. just kidding, short term goals like writing.

i made K watch some ncaa action last night, watched stanfurd get its ass kicked. oh well. arizona won today, guess i'll cheer for them to go all the way. texas tech also won, i have an affinity for bobby knight.

Time article about bobby knight.

Bobby admits he has "a temper problem" -- which is like Jeffrey Dahmer saying that he suffers from an eating disorder.

Would the human race be better off without rage?

The world is divided between those who consider anger to be a form of temporary insanity and those who believe it to be a sign of strength of character, a weapon in the hands of the righteous, an instrument of justice. The Encyclopaedia of Religion and Ethics says primly that "anger... is found in the divine character, as it is always found in any strong human character."

argh.
