Lessons of Life with Manatee Max, Part IV

Of Majors and Tortillas

If there is one thing my academic trajectory has taught me, it is this:

There are two types of people in this world: those who accept their mistakes, and those who major in Economics.

Of course only those of you who have taken a minimal course load in economics will be able to appreciate this lesson, but as they say, a lesson learned is a dollar earned. Which leads me to my next point.

A tortilla burned is a lesson learned. A lesson learned is a dollar earned. We can conclude therefore that a tortilla burned is a dollar earned, which is of course absurd. Next time you burn your tortilla, remember this. By burning the tortilla you are spurning an axiom.

A tortilla burned is an axiom spurned.
