Like one colleague of mine linking to this. Which provokes this:
Rocket ships
Are exciting
But so are roses
On a birthday
Computers are exciting
But so is a sunset
And logic
Will never replace
Love
Sometimes I wonder
Where I belong
In the future
Or
In the past
I guess I'm just
An old-fashioned
Space-man.
And this. And that.
If you can top this exchange (or simply name the poet I quoted), I'd see that we hired you in a heartbeat. If it weren't for that pesky $4.2M shortfall and hiring freeze we're muddling through right now....
Anyway, do leave a link or report on a good exchange on your department listserv. Berube shouldn't get all the best commenters.
