Hurray!

Now to do homework and bed!
Hurray!

Ah, idle summer.

And what art thou, thou idle summer?

What kind of god art thou, that suffer'st more

Of mortal griefs than do thy worshippers?

What are thy rents? what are thy comings in?

Ten points to anyone who can name the Shakespeare play I'm mincing there. :)

For anyone else a little down from summer, here's an excellent URL that always ( Read more... )

The following is a list of modifiers that could accurately be applied to me right now:

1) Bored already with summer.
2) Needing a job.
3) Not wanting to make phone calls I have to make.
4) Not wanting to write e-mails I have to write.

I'm sure anyone who reads this would have heard relatively quickly had I died.  It would, however, have me simply to have become illiterate and for no one who communicates with me primarily by means of this blog to have known about it.  That scenario, while unlikely, would in some ways be more believable than my death as a reason why said blog has ( Read more... )

     My previous entry seems to have provoked little response, at least in the way of dispute.   Come on guys, don't just let me win. :)

First, I think that, ultimately, whether you, Trevor and Virginia, are relativists is to a large extent the issue at hand.  I think you really are.  However, I can also use "ethical subjectivist," since I doubt either of you would deny ( Read more... )

     For the record, I should state right off  the bat that pedophilia is, in fact, totally unethical.  That was my roommate's question and I just found it intriguing from an intellectual standpoint, like the other random questions in which I often indulge.  (You know the type: "If you had to eliminate one part of speech from your vocabulary, which ( Read more... )

language jokes I usually do with subject lines in e-mails.  Boo.  Now I need to come up with subject lines that naturally follow from the time.  Somehow I doubt that I'll be successful.

I could not sleep last night.  I was up until about 3:00.  However, I was quite awake throughout all of my classes due to a wonderful discovery known as "caffeine ( Read more... )

Hmmm...so, I wonder, is it a sin to update one's blog on the Sabbath?  Obviously the Orthodox would say so, and there're few hard-and-fast rules in Reform, but there still ought to be some sort of norm for this sort of thing.  It's writing, so I have a feeling I'm pushing it in any case.  On the other hand, I can't go to synagogue and reading the ( Read more... )
