Title: Professor given a few months to live, gives final lecuture.
Post by: www.BrinkZone.com on March 15, 2008, 09:31:02 AM

Some of you may have already seen this, but  A professor named Randy Pausch  was given a few months to live. His final lecture to his students was recorded, and his words to live by are worth watching. It's not a depressing lecture, but actually an uplifting talk about how to make the most of  time we all have. The full lecture can be found here:

A much shorter version can be found here as he appeared on Oprah:

I HIGHLY recommend watching the full version. The Oprah version really does not do it, or him, justice.

If I was him I would be knee deep in Thai hookers and blow - fuck the lectures.

Thanks for posting that.  Pretty darn funny! It is amazing that for someone who has a big reason to be upset or sad (his diagnosis) he still seems so happy and full of life.

According to Wikipedia the professor is still alive.
