[at-l] INTJ & What we have in common

[awkathome at earthlink.net (Arthur Kelley)]

The full expression is

"You learn more and more about less and less until you know everything 
about nothing"

also

B.S. = bull sh*t
M.S. = more sh*t
Ph. D. = piled higher and deeper

-Arthur
Who has a Ph. D. and who was formerly a professor at State U but is now 
a recovering academic in the private sector because he couldn't stand 
to be around the other Ph. D.s
You will notice that I haven't completely recovered because I couldn't 
help but correct you when you had the expression only partially correct.
Sigh.
