...options and thesis writing. In short, this weekend, Harvard will miraculously transform itself into an academic Shangri-La. All of its vast resources will be laid at your feet, and the administration would like your parents to lap it all up so that they go home satisfied, and cheerfully scrawl out another tuition check...
That's the secret, really. Don't write out "TIME!!!" in inch-high scrawl--it only brings out the sadist in us. Don't (Cliffies) write offers to come over and read aloud to us your illegible remarks--we can (officially) read anything, and we may be married.

...culture's most powerful critic was taking his shot. On the Oct. 19 episode of The Simpsons, Bart walked up to the blackboard and, in his signature scrawl, covered it with the phrase, "I no longer want my MTV." Meanwhile, the MTV-Hater's Page Website offered a chat for "all those who are sick of MTV's mass of nonmusic-related programming." Even the demographically challenged Howard Stern, whose own audience is more Pat Benatar than Puff Daddy, realized he could score easy points by harping on the service's lack of videos. Yet despite the welling demand...
