# Purdue Boilermakers are MAKERS!


[George at nbitwonder](http://nbitwonder.com/2010/10/13/purdue-declares-loudly-i-am-a-maker/) caught this outside the Armstrong Hall of Engineering [Purdue](http://www.purdue.edu) while walking to class.  The signs read:

> I think work should be about making things work.  Better.  Faster.  Smaller.  Smarter.  So I build bridges between what's known and what's not.  I tinker.  I toil.  I write poetically in an abundance of languages (including code).  I hack.  I dissect.  I have an insatiable desire to un-complicate the complicated.  I am easily inspired.  I believe that just because it hasn't been thought of doesn't mean it won't be.  Potential is my thrill ride.  Imagination is my most-used tool.  I am a maker, and I am what moves the world forward.

Always good to see I picked the right school for my EE degree!
