Let me tell you about me...

Hey werbert
Be grateful you ain't as dumb as me. I enrolled in a graduate program that was built around group projects, they threw me out because I did so badly, two years later they let me back in, then they threw me out again for the same reason. These days I avoid people.

Well, tinky, you were right. THis day did finally end.

When I told my mom about the sandwich, she drove to McDonald's to get me some burgers and fries.

Aside from today, it has been a good week. I got a lot done at work, received some test scores that were higher than I expected, and my family has had at least two pieces of good news this week.

And Monday's my birthday, but I have to go to work and class that day.

Ouch! Today in my business class, we were doing an activity that required that some tables and chairs be moved around, and a chair fell on my little toesies.

So you study accounting Werbert? I do too

I work as an accountant as well. I'm quite tempted to throw in the towel of both and start with something new next year, maybe IT.

Are your toesies OK?

The March of Death is almost over.

In a little under 17 hours, I will go down into the trenches one last time and engage in combat with the enemy once more.

At 7PM, eastern standard time, I will take my accounting test. I have a 94 average in the class, and I have been studying since saturday. I am going to get an A.

At 1PM, Thursday afternoon, I will take a business test. My average in that class: 106. Grade I need on my last test to get an A: 39. Yeah, this one's in the bag.

At 6:30 Thursday, I will take my last test. Math. Grade so far: 94. Total time spent studying for all tests: 2 hours. Math, if we were in prison, you would be the subservient one in our sexual relationship.

Accounting, business, and math, I have put up with your crap the entire semester. Now, I will completely destroy you. You will be stains on the pavement of academia when I am through with you, just like all the rest.

As Al Bundy said, "Let's rock."

Werbert! Werbert! Werbert! And when you finish the tests yell in class at he top of your voice "Aced it bit<heeeeeeeeeees!".

Congratulations!! !! !!!Now that little bit of triviality is over,I would hope that you will begin posting feverishly for my entertainment.

*Werbert walks alone on a smoky, crater-filled battlefield. He clutches his backpack in his weary arms, his tattered clothes flapping in the breeze. Nearby lay the broken and shattered corpses of math, business, and accounting.*

But wait...

*The three corpses stir. Slowly, math reaches for his saber, in a last ditch attempt to defeat Werbert. Our hero notices and pulls out a pencil, ready to strike. Math raises the saber as Accounting and Business reload their weapons. Werbert lunges to attack....*

To be continued...

OMG

I hope Werbert has a feasability analysis with wild yet plausible assumptions with which to defeat Accounting and Business. (does Werbert know of the witch doctor-chicken entrails analogy).

can't see it on the net. It was in an academic paper some time ago.

In (past times in) African villages, before the village undertakes any significant work, the witch dr sacrifices a chicken and looks at it entrails to see if it is a good thing to do.

Before a modern business does a project, the accountant does a feasability.

If the African village goes wrong, the excuse is it was the wrong chicken (or had bad devils in the chicken etc).

If the business goes wrong, the excuse is it was the wrong assumptions in the model.

The paper argued that accountants are modern day witch doctors. I don't give it justice here.

Feasability analysis is heap powerful medicine. I hope you have one in your armoury.
