> Times were hard when I started college. I had just turned 20. I had no money, no car, no TV, no microwave, no computer, no girlfriend, no draft deferment, no major, no minors, no cell phone, no stero, no radio, no part time job. I had a jacket and one pair of shoes. All of my clothes went into one suitcase. In a cardboard box, I had a pillow, two sheets and an army surplus wool blanket.

The only piece of furniture we had in my first college apartment was a large cardboard box all of my things were shipped in. We covered it with an army surplus wool blanket to make it look better.
