Students tell me all the time that they don’t read. Yet they spend endless time parked in front of a computer. I know they’re not spending all that time watching YouTube or playing games. Heck, even most computer games require a fair amount of reading. Then there’s the fact that nearly every waking moment spent away from a computer is spent with their face buried in another electronic screen. They’re reading; they simply may not be reading anything of quality.

HOBO: A student asked me today if I read all the books in my office.
BEARD: What did you tell him?
HOBO: I read the good ones. And then he asked how did I know which ones were the good ones? So I said I read all the bad ones first and then I was only left with the good ones.
BEARD: What was his reaction?
