It’s a beautiful day here and I’m inside stuck in one of my last classes of the semester when I’d much rather be out on the lake – the lake referring to no lake in particular. So while tooling around the internetz I found this wonderful set on flickr by Ben.

It’s almost to the time when I have to pick out a dissertation topic and quite frankly I’m not sure where I’m going…or more accurately I’m not sure what kind of pirate I want to be. So here’s my dilemma -
