(Rhetorical) questions and (illogical) answers

Is it possible to take multiple classes that meet at the same time? (Answer: sure.)

Should I be ashamed or relieved that, when a sheet of paper was passed around at my house's "mandatory" first meeting, asking people to write down which intramural sports they'd be interested in playing, nearly everyone handed the sheet over to the person next to them without a second thought? (Answer: relieved.)

If, every Tuesday, I take an intro Hebrew language class, a course on the history of fascism, and another on the Dreyfus Affair, all while reading Philip Roth's "The Plot Against America," will that unique type of Rothian paranoia become mine as well? (Answer: most likely, but the fascism class appears to be full, so not to worry, or at least not to worry in Rothian proportions. Hope some spaces open up, though, since it does sound interesting...).

How much diet Coke will fit in my mini-fridge? Relatedly (in that I have no spatial sense whatsoever), will I survive physical science? Also relatedly (in that I will want something a bit more substantial to wash down with said diet Coke, and the dining hall has not proven itself to be any better this year than last), is it worthwhile to go all the way downtown just to buy groceries? Does combining a trip to Fox & Obel with a stop by H&M make the trip more or less productive? (Answers: maybe 20 cans; probably; definitely; less.)
