Friday, and what happens when a child does the careers meme

Nothing much to report, really. I finished patching together the php files for G's new survey, but it doesn't run, and I'm not sure what to do with it next. I watched the entire first Pirates movie with D., and I read a little bit about what Durkheim thought about ethics.

There's a career meme that's going around - first alphaviolet, then rabswom, kataplexis, and gradx, then shehasathree; most recently violet_memory posted an interesting variant where you indicate the careers you've considered and the ones you've actually tried. My results aren't much different from anyone else's (anthropologist, political aide, epidemiologist), and R's matched him very well (agronomist, gardener, artist).

The really amusing thing, though, was when I helped D. take it. The enthusiasm with which he clicked on such disparate things! Chemistry? Sure! Working in a factory? Fun! Taking detailed orders from other people? Yeah! Making accurate illustrations? Oh wow!

D. should become a cartoonist, but only if he goes to college. Otherwise, he should be a lifeguard.
