Andy: Shouldn't you be studying?? It's finals week! Peter: Mom, relax. Jason's upstairs working on my simulator as we speak. Andy: Your what? Peter: I'm paying him to write me a computer app that will simulate taking the final exam in each one of my classes. It should be pretty sweet. He's using the 3-D engine from "Haloshock Tournament". Astronauts train with simulators, soldiers train with simulators, even some doctors now train with simulators...I figure it's gotta be an effective learning tool, right? Andy: Peter, your first two tests are tomorrow! Peter: Jason says if you'll waive his bedtime tonight he can deliver a working beta by 4:30 a.m. that'll give me a solid three hours for training. You're cool with that, right? I mean, my semester grades are at stake. Make sure the simulator accounts for my eardrums being destroyed. Jason: Was that mom screaming? She's getting louder, have you noticed?

I find it extremely interesting how kids would go to so much time and effort for this stuff when they could be spending just as much time and effort simply cracking the dang books.

To me, how much studying you need to do during exam week depends on how much you’ve studied the rest of the year.

I guess it depends which kind of Lazy-people you’re dealing with…
There are the Truly-Lazy “I couldnt care less!” people…
And than there are the “Why must you always do things the Hard way? Here, let me show you something…” people, now these people get things done with the least amount of effort and REALLY use there heads… They geniuses in my book.
