An idea I've had is to allow people to earn their college degrees by testing out of classes, not having a limit on the number of classes that can be tested out of, with the exception of classes that require laboratory work. The tests would need to be comprehensive, but this would allow for people who can learn autodidactically to be rewarded for their efforts.

The fact that I don't know when to take a WP holiday and I tire myself out for a few days because I've promised my fellow WP members that I would never turn my back on them again when I came back as the real me two years ago in October 2009.

I'm a lot like Mick Avory that way. The other Kinks were directing their crude humour towards Mick and he stayed in the band until Summer 1984 when Ray suggested as a way of protecting Mick that he leaves the band before his sensitive feelings got hurt any further, by his brother, Dave in particular.
