Provided that you are capable of either, you will become well-off rather fast. Desirable as that may be, most of you know firsthand that nobody is as bored as the rich, for money buys time, and time is repetitive.

Thanks to modern technology, those tools are as numerous as boredom’s symptoms. In light of their function — to render you oblivious to the redundancy of time — their abundance is revealing.”<br/><br/> - <em><a href="http://lists.extropy.org/pipermail/paleopsych/2005-May/003252.html" target="_blank">Joseph Brodsky</a></em>http://blog.philthompson.net/post/1049954259http://blog.philthompson.net/post/1049954259Wed, 01 Sep 2010 15:00:00 -0700<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l82yexnK371qz870po1_500.gif"/><br/><br/>http://blog.philthompson.net/post/1048848290http://blog.philthompson.net/post/1048848290Wed, 01 Sep 2010 11:08:56 -0700<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l81k5mawri1qz6z2wo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Ooh, I could use some of these.
