Geek-parody on the German poem "Der Erlkönig" by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.

Smoke while you may...

Last week my favorite students club met again for its annual plenum. Apart from electing our new heads, we had a very strong, unintellectual and non-objective discussion about whether we wanted to permit smoking in our club or not. Unfortunately, the smokers once again won with arguments like that smokers drink more beer and are therefore economically more important for us.

Spiegel online features smoking in a nice squib.
