Okay. Same day. I know. i was looking at Michael Cross's blog, and his stories of Justin Timberlake-immune students reminded me of this: --as I was looking through student responses, I found this: a student replied to my question of "What was the best essay/novel/short story/play you've read in the last two years?" with this simple answer (in a very pleasant hue of sparkly-green ink):

I don't have a favorite because I hate to read words

Mind you, this student doesn't just hate to read, but hates, especially, the reading of words. i'm going to copy and frame this, I think.
