This that and the other thing. Though there might be more of this than that. And little of the other things. Maybe.

Pesky Brick Walls

I think the link below is only valid for a few more days. Wish I had seen it to post about yesterday when more of yall would have seen it. Hopefully you're reading this entry in time to see it now.

A Beloved Professor Delivers the Lecture of a Lifetime is an article in the Wall Street Journal by Jeff Zaslow, about a professor at Carnegie-Mellon (CM).

CM (and other universities) has a program called the Last Lecture Series, where top professors come in and give a Last Lecture. They impart their thoughts on what they think is important, what they've learned in life, what they would want people to remember them for, what their last words to people would be, etc.

It's pretty moving stuff. I admit it. I teared up reading the article and again when I watched the video. So go read & watch it and think about brick walls in a new way
