Looking up a word at Dictionary.com, I see that they have a feature today on phobias, and on their list was the fear of work, which I thought was worth looking up. I wonder if they have any medication for that, not that I'm espeically interested in being healed. Maybe the only real cure is hunger and homelessness. But would that be better than death?

No. Really!

Laziness is praised as a cardinal virtue in the computer programming community. It is primarily because of this reason.

Actually, I started my college career in computer science, but apparently laziness doesn't help when it comes to mastering calculus. :(
