Who should I thank?
|
|
|
|
My so-called ``colleagues,'' who laugh at me behind my back,
|
|
|
|
all the while becoming famous on {\em my\/} work?
|
|
|
|
My worthless graduate students, whose computer skills appear to
|
|
|
|
be limited to downloading bitmaps off of netnews?
|
|
|
|
My parents, who are still waiting for me to quit ``fooling around with
|
|
|
|
computers,'' go to med school, and become a radiologist?
|
|
|
|
My department chairman, a manager who gives one new insight into
|
|
|
|
and sympathy for disgruntled postal workers?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
My God, no one could blame me---no one!---if I went off the edge and just
|
|
|
|
lost it completely one day.
|
|
|
|
I couldn't get through the day as it is without the Prozac and Jack Daniels
|
|
|
|
I keep on the shelf, behind my Tops-20 JSYS manuals.
|
|
|
|
I start getting the shakes real bad around 10am, right before my
|
|
|
|
advisor meetings. A 10 oz.\ Jack 'n Zac helps me get through the
|
|
|
|
meetings without one of my students winding up with his severed head
|
|
|
|
in a bowling-ball bag. They look at me funny; they think I twitch a
|
|
|
|
lot. I'm not twitching. I'm controlling my impulse to snag my 9mm
|
|
|
|
Sig-Sauer out from my day-pack and make a few strong points about
|
|
|
|
the quality of undergraduate education in Amerika.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If I thought anyone cared, if I thought anyone would even be reading this,
|
|
|
|
I'd probably make an effort to keep up appearances until the last possible
|
|
|
|
moment. But no one does, and no one will. So I can pretty much say exactly
|
|
|
|
what I think.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Oh, yes, the {\em acknowledgements.}
|
|
|
|
I think not. I did it. I did it all, by myself.
