You actually learned how to use the card catalog? I always pretended that I did but it shall forever remain a mystery.

I can't really think of anything I know that is useless. Because it is my hope that one day, one day it will show up on Jeopardy, at the very least.

Come on, knowing when the Spanish Armada sailed is very useful information and will serve you well for years to come! :)
