My friends and I started a game where we write the title for our autobiography for ourselves or each other. “The Life and Times of a ~~Programmer~~ , ~~Army Officer~~ , ~~Scientist~~ , Musician, To Be Determined?” My friend wrote a funny haiku: So many dumb things Could fill a volume or two If really small books We’re having a blast so I thought perhaps the Teeming Millions might like to give it a try. ---
