heaven, not harvard

not that there's anything wrong with going to harvard - going to harvard is a great thing - (although this week's news about student sandra korn who wants the school to fire any professor who doesn't toe the radical left line - is there a professor like that? - makes going to harvard sound like it's not for the smart people everybody thinks it is)......not that there's anything wrong with going to harvard, but i think your #1 goal should be to go to heaven. 

if you don't believe in God, you won't give a rip about going or not going to heaven. (supposedly. i don't really believe anyone who tells me that they are so 100% certain that there's no God that they never - ever - have that tiny little voice naggin' at 'em, tellin' em that maybe they're wrong. i don't believe it.)

but......supposedly........if you don't believe in God, you won't give a rip about going or not going to heaven. getting into harvard, however - either yourself or your son or your daughter or your grandchild or your best friend or your somebody - probably holds a decent amount of appeal. (or princeton. yale. wellesley. whatever.)



"if you believe in forever, then life is just a one-night stand, if there's a rock and roll heaven, well, you know they've got a hell of a band."



you "smart folks" are gonna miss out on the best (everlasting) concert of your (not-so-everlasting) lives.
