This Web project is the most
self-indulgent, egotistical thing I have ever done in my life.
But the day is young. I can top it.
Actually this was first said by Scott Adams (via Dilbert), but he was
thinking of guys like me!
Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, and
more money --- Bob Jensen's a happy man!
To be without some of the things you want is an
indispensable part of happiness.

Russell
BH: My last question : How would you define the ideal digital society in a few words?
MJ: Equality of communication. Equality of information. Environmentally sustainable design. Low cost and high quality. Technology guided by the needs of people and not by trade and governments. Finally education technologies should be accessible to all.
Interview with Mary Joyce by Ben Heine --- http://snipurl.com/mjdigitalsociety
Therein lies the real trouble. Learning is labor.
We're selling the fantasy that technology can change that. It can’t. No
technology ever has. Gutenberg’s press only made it easier to print books, not
easier to read and understand them.
Peter Berger, "The Land of iPods and
Honey," The Irascible Professor, February 26, 2007 --- at

In one
century we went from teaching Latin and Greek in high school to offering
remedial English in college.
Joseph Sobran as quoted by Mark
Shapiro at

Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will
find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover
that you have two hands; one for helping yourself, and the other for helping
others.
As quoted in an email message from Georgia Golden
“How many professors does it take to change a light
bulb?”
Answer: “Whadaya mean, “change”?”

On May 14, 2006 I retired from Trinity University after a long and wonderful career as an accounting professor in four universities. I was generously granted "Emeritus" status by the Trustees of Trinity University. My wife and I now live in a cottage in the White Mountains of New Hampshire --- http://www.trinity.edu/rjensen/NHcottage/NHcottage.htm

Thanks to the generosity of Trinity University, I will continue

Please note that I am not the
radical faculty member from the University of Texas who is named Robert (Bob) W.
Jensen. The title of one of Professor W's
papers speaks for itself: "The United States
has lost the Iraq War, and that's a good thing,"
Although
Professor W. advocates dismantling the U.S. business system, I am the Robert (Bob)
E. Jensen, emeritus accounting professor from Trinity University, who favors free capital
markets in spite of our present run of business scandals.

Quick Finds:
In 1876, my grandparents (Julius and Regina Jensen) donated a corner of their farm so that nearby Norwegian immigrants could build the Blakjer Church and a cemetery --- http://www.rootsweb.com/~cemetery/iowa/cemeteries/blakjerlutherancem.htm
Bob mentions this church in his story about growing up --- http://www.trinity.edu/rjensen/max01.htm
In the Year 2002, the church was moved from the country to a city park in Lone Rock --- http://www.lonerockiowa.com/attractions.html
The cemetery is still out on our old farm.I wrote a document (screen play? short story? tutorial? case?) that is a takeoff on the Muppets. It is entitled "Clyde Gives Brother Hat a Lesson in Arbitrage" and can be found at http://www.trinity.edu/rjensen/acct5341/speakers/muppets.htm

You can read an autobiography by Amey Cherland at http://www.trinity.edu/rjensen/AmeyCherlandObituary.htm
I have also attached a copy. Amey gave this to me in a hand-written notebook when my father died in January of this year. I promised Amey that I would type it up and put it on the Internet. By a very strange coincidence, I finished typing it up on the day he died, but I did not learn that he had died until several days later when I got a message from David and Lynn Jenson.
Amey died on October 4, 2002. He was 95 years old.

How can you best publish books, including multimedia and user interactive books,

Note that interactive books may have quizzes and examinations where answers are
sent back for grading.
My Answers --- http://www.trinity.edu/rjensen/000aaa/thetools.htm
Recently I added some of my old theory exam questions and
problems (heavy on FAS 133 and IAS 39) under "Exam Material" at
http://www.cs.trinity.edu/~rjensen/Calgary/CD/
Most of my questions and problems are probably too specialized for an
AccountingWeb Quiz. But they may help advanced students learn more about theory.

Please remember the difference between research
versus scholarship. Research, the extension of existing knowledge, is never as easy
as scholarship focused upon existing knowledge. Research is a flicker of light where the
leading edge of literature drops off into a black unknown. At the dark edge, a clever idea
is far more enlightening than an encyclopedic mind. My hope is that some of you will have
a clever idea. Without a clever idea, you will have to resort to only scholarship. I can't
tell you where to find clever ideas. All I can do is help set the stage for your fertile
imagination.
A seamless, cradle -to-grave educational system is within our reach, if we muster the courage and will to create it.

. . . the best we can do is to divide all processes into those things which can be better done by machines and those which can be better done by humans and then invent methods by which to pursue the two.
