The Last Lecture by Randy Pausch--A Truly Wonderful Read  | |  If you haven't read The Last Lecture by Randy Pausch then you should go out today and get it. I rarely come upon a book I think everyone should read but this is one of them.
This is a book written by a man who has 3-6 months to live because of Pancreatic Cancer. He gave a last lecture at the college he used to work at entitled achieving your childhood dreams--its a famous one--you can google it and watch it.
In this book, he expands more on his life and how is lucky to have lived as much as he has lived. He gives us pearls of wisdom to live by in a funny, quirky computer geek way. I read this book in one evening its short but profound.
Has anyone else read it or seen the Last Lecture he gave? What did you think?

| | | 2. pyewacket (11581) | 1 year ago |  Hi there Aurone. No I haven't yet read his book, but I have heard of him, and if my memory is correct, wasn't he even on the Oprah show? From what I gather though, isn't he still hanging in there meaning alive despite the odds of his terminal cancer?
I did indeed google him and found the lecture itself..it's over an hour long and plan to watch it later...Here's the link

| Aurone (2549) | 1 year ago | Thanks for the link. I have been meaning to watch the lecture myself. I don't know if he was on Oprah as I don't watch TV but as big as this thing has gotten he probably has. | |
