Whenever I come to Boston, I recall the song by Dave Loggins (I like the Joan Baez version best)
Please come to Boston for the springtime
I’m stayin’ here with some friends and they’ve got lots of room
You can sell your paintings on the sidewalk
By a café where I hope to be workin’ soon
The weather is rainy and cloudy. I am staying with friends in Acton, MA.
What else? Read the commencement address by PJ O’Rourke, “Fairness, idealism and other atrocities: Commencement advice you’re unlikely to hear elsewhere” from the LA Times of May 4th. (Hat tip: Sushant.)
PJ makes four excellent points. Of course I think they are excellent because I believe in them precisely. The short version:
1. Go out and make a bunch of money
2. Don’t be an idealist
3. Get politically uninvolved
4. Forget about fairness
The other two points I only partially agree with.
