Time enough at last? Probably not.

Apr 16, 2009 by Grant
You guys should totally check out an old 1950s-60s episode of the Twilight called "Time enough at last".  It's about a guy who wants some time for himself, and sorta gets his wish.  Cool ep.

As you can see from my page, I'm older than the average community of tengaged.  Between work, and trying to get a degree, especially with multiple deadlines all coming the same time, it's hard to have time for both business and pleasure.  So it would be stupid to play in the near future.  I hope in a week or two things will look better. 

Anywho... I have a bachelor degree in International Relations + in Sociology & Anthropology.  Sounds pompous, doesn't it?  Yeah, I don't even FEEL like a guy with a degree. 

Right now I'm doing a graduate degree in American Studies.  What a crazy country.  It's sort of like Survivor.  A bunch of renegades and refugees from a civilized country find themselves on this huge mass of land, having to start over.  Castaways who are stranded for a few centuries, and do pretty well for themselves! 

Anyway, I love the whole international relations stuff (that's why I persued that field).  I love all of the politics.  The variables involved.  I love the fact that it's not just the guy with the black hat vs. the guy with the white hat, but a bunch of different groups, people who switch alliances, subgroups who fight among themselves, etc.

That's why I watch Big Brother (soon from 3 different countries) and that's why I'm on tengaged. 

It's cool that while I'm in my late 20s, I can find myself as the old (wise?) man here sometimes.  Hehe.

Okay... so who is the oldest person YOU know?  I played only two games, and pretty much everyone I talked to was in their teens (including 19, I'm not talking just about 14).  I played with one person in his early 20s, and that's it.

Cool to know there are other elders like me out there.  I'd love to bump into them every now and then.
