        I had a couple big ones:
        Truman's decision to drop the atomic bomb
        The Minoans: Art for art's sake?
        Why the Taliban's policies were not Afghan normalcy

          That's not bragging. Just an admission of a deep psychological problem.
          Oh no, I was just trying to come up with the most useless example of an essay that I have written.

                      Shoot. I came close. My 20-page paper was on the attempted modernisation of the Russian Orthodox church under peter the mediocre.

                        I once moved a 20 page paper from one spot to another so I could sit down.

                              Good luck dude.


                              What are your options now?
                              Teaching? Or is there an interesting research position?

                                That's cool. I got my Masters in U.S. History in Dec. 2006 complete with a published thesis.

                                Now that you have your BA, what are your plans?
