I picked philosophy. After all, I'd had an intro to philosophy course my junior year of high school that I really enjoyed. I was really interested in philosophy (in some ways, I still am).

Can you guess how many girls there are in philosophy classes?

About as many as there were in electrical engineering.
Philosophy was my initial major.  I wish it was still a job, I would have stuck with it.

I still keep my philosophy books around in my home office.   Definitely a class i'd go back and take again.  Though I'd expect the syllabus would look completely different.   Are they still letting people read Plato?

NFL cancels the pre-season. 

Probably only a matter of time before they cancel the actual season.

The most interesting course I had in college was Psychology 101.  I had a great professor.  There were about 45 kids in the class, nearly all first quarter freshmen (it was summer, I needed two more liberal arts courses to graduate).  The professor asked me what I was doing and I told him, it wasn't more psych of course, but I still recall a fair bit from that class.

I could do an integral today if one fell on me.

The philosophy of quantum uncertainty is fascinating to me.  I had a brief discussion with our physics professor friend.  I am not certain what he was saying.

He is hesitant to talk much physics, or science, which works for me.  He said he was happy to have had his job, 30+ years at the same school, and more happy to be retired.

He has some amazing photos.
