I am bored. I realized tonight that I have not written an essay in almost two years - never been asked to in college (that's what I get for taking mathematics and econ courses). So, help me pick an essay topic.

Fields of study:
mathematics
-history
-some theory
economics
-some history
-some theory
WWII history
-causes
Military strategy
-more survey reading - Clausewitz, Sun Tzu, Zhuge Liang, etc.
Religion
-Christianity
-some basic stuff on Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, etc.

Hmm... criminy, I cannot think of any other subjects just at the moment. Appease my boredom!

Yep! I love to write, I just haven't written a well-constructed essay in some time. Don't want my skills to become too rusty.

Mathematics - Number Theory. Watch Pi to get the creative juices flowing, then go from there. Hebrew = mathematical, etc etc.

You should incorporate some kind of local historical visit or perhaps a first account interview with your essay. DIAGRAMS, GRAPHS, PICTURES!

Okay, here's a topic:

The Green Party is not green, nor is it a party.

Here's a better topic:

Butt Piracy is against the laws of God, Man, and the Republican Party.

Talk amongst yourselves...

Butt piracy is only illegal if someone finds out. Otherwise, why your behind is sore is just another mystery for the ages.
