Kinda what we've all done in school when assigned a "five page" or "500 word" paper on a topic we don't know much about.


I always had trouble keeping it to anything close to the maximum allowed. The subjects in "Freshman Humanities" were just so interesting. Hume, Kant, Kafka, Sartre, Jung, Cellini, Rousseau, Dante, Camus, et. al. (the first semester) just can't be explained in only 500 words. Such brilliance!

Maybe it was 'cause I'd read most of them in Jr. Hi. and could see the "deeper meanings."
