This week's question: A German university is offering "idleness grants" worth nearly $1,900 to applicants who promise to do nothing. Applications consist of simple questions such as: What do you not want to do? For how long? Why is it important not to do it? In seven words or fewer, please come up with the title that you'd give your submission for an idleness grant.
