You're The Guns of August!

by Barbara Tuchman

Though you're interested in war, what you really want to know is what
causes war. You're out to expose imperialism, militarism, and nationalism for what they
really are. Nevertheless, you're always living in the past and have a hard time dealing
with what's going on today. You're also far more focused on Europe than anywhere else in
the world. A fitting motto for you might be "Guns do kill, but so can
diplomats."



Take the Book Quiz
at the Blue Pyramid.




I've never even heard of this book, but now I feel like I need to go out and read it. I posted on Ahalya's blog that I was to be described as measuring life in coffee spoons. But I think I also like "Guns do kill, but so can diplomats."

And since I know you all care so much, I think I'm hitting my productivity wall, but neverthess, I did manage to get a good chunk of my To Do List accomplished, which is something of a rarety on Saturdays, especially when they begin around 3 pm. I'm hoping to pound out a bit of writing for my health and human rights midterm and then I'm calling it a night. Working at 11:00 on a Saturday night, after watching "Outbreak." Could I be more of a grad student?
