Mullah Luis – Back to school…


Mullah Luis registered for some 2000 level classes at a local university this semester. I asked him, Mullah how do you feel learning accounting with students much younger than yourself. He said that he felt – vindicated.

He always prophesied a theory which he calls career @ 16, that questions the ability of a 16 year high school student to choose a career of a LFIETIME. He says at 16 you make all kinds of “hormonic” mistakes and to believe all your life that what you choose at 16 was right - is absurd. We must decide on life when we have somewhat complete information and no blinders. He adds God forbids if you decide on your life partner at 16; then you are pretty much doomed, unless you are a local Sheikh with a secret harem in Southern France!

My days have gotten more interesting with new stories and observations that he comes back with each day. I am also beginning to appreciate accounting 2000 as well. It is good to see him with a bag pack filled with books these days. He says that there are two kinds of people who use bag packs:

- Students
- Losers

As far as Mullah is concerned, I think he just got himself promoted!
