Oh bite me, you envious bourgeois. The only problem with leeching
off the taxpayers is that in order to get a *decent* stipend you
must _really_ love paperwork (e.g., grant applications) -- which
like any remunerative skill costs money to acquire.[1]

Anymore I'd have trouble coming up with so much as a panhandling 
sign any cleverer than "Pity Me & I Might Not Stab You."[2] 

"Fun and interesting"? Let "Society" make me a better offer then.


Artistically,
