Today was wasted. Really.
One good point: Attempts to squeeze inspiration from the national library for KI IS has yielded some fruit... I have vague ideas of what I will write 3000 words about.
Then, as with all the other times I visit the library, I got lost in rubbish books that have no relevance to the original purpose of my visit in the first place.
Like for example, I spent precious time today reading World History According to College Students. It's basically a compilation of all the stupidity that happens on term papers from students under time pressure.
Samples of silliness that had me laughing in the library and on the mrt back (spelling mistakes not mine):
Chapter 1- The Historian’s Task: Hindsight into the future

Chapter 2- The Dawn of Time: The Stoned Age
Bible Legend states that the trouble started after Eve ate the Golden Apple of Discord. This was the forbidding fruit. An angry God sent his wraith. Man fell from the space of grace. It was mostly downhill skiing from there.

Chapter 3- The Mists of Antiquity: The Joy of Flooding
The Nile was a river that had some water in it. Every year, it would flood and irritate the land. This tended to make the people nervous… Eventually, the Egyptians drowned in the desert.

The history of the Jewish people begins with Abraham, Issac and their twelve children. Judyism was the first monolithic religion. It had one big God named “Yahoo”.
Moses was told by Jesus Christ to lead the people out of Egypt into the Sahaira Desert. The Book of Exodus describes this trip and the amazing things that happened on it, including the Ten Commandments, various special effects, and the building of the Suez Canal.

Joan of Ark was famous as Noah’s wife.
Noah’s ark came to its end near Mt. Arafat.

Chapter 4- The Classical Age: Thucydides Meets the Mouse of History
Alexander the great conquered Persia, Egypt and Japan. Sadly, he died with no hairs.

Pythagasaurus fathered the triangle.

Chapter 5- The Grandeur that was Rome
…cultists followed Diane Isis, the godess of whine.

Chapter 6- The Rise of Christianity and the Fall of Rome
The mother of Jesus was Mary who was different from other women because of her immaculate contraption.

During the Dark Ages, it was mostly dark.

Chapter 7- The Feudal World: The Rise of the Manurial System.
During the Middle Ages, everyone was middle aged.

More later in the week if I feel like it...

Then horror of horrors. I watched Bee Movie.
It was given 2 out of 5 stars.
I wouldn't have been so generous. Like SERIOUSLY.
It's a propaganda movie! It's message: rebellion against authority and order and the way things have been lead to chaos, disaster and unhappiness. And it targets KIDS.
Plus it was super lammmmme, very predictable and.... urg.

I'd rather waste my time with you.
