Hypothetical Situation
Friend is working on these logic/thinking quiz deals, and sent this one to me today:
“A man who takes his wife everywhere with him says he has to go out of town for work. The wife says, “Don’t go, I’m not safe when you are not here.” He says, “I’ll be back tomorrow, but I have to go,” and he leaves. The minute he leaves the wife goes to see her lover. After a night with her lover she starts to...

Chuck Klosterman on Laker-versus-Celtics People...
I am such a Laker Person in every way that it’s kind of scary. Get out of my head, Chuck Klosterman!
Perhaps it seems the Lakers and Celtics represent everything in life simply because they represent the psychological war between black and white, the only things just about everybody in America can seem to understand. Perhaps the only reason I worshiped Larry Bird was because he was a God I...

The Order By Which People Are Admitted To Heaven →
To be admitted only after review by the Screening Board (Catherine of Siena, chairwoman), the Board of Appeals (Meher Baba, chairman) and the Last Gasp Committee (Cardinal Joseph Bernadin, chairman): poets, novelists, buskers, spies, New York Yankees fans.

My professors amaze me with their ability to clearly elaborate on any subject, but they never apply their timeless wisdom to reality. Instead of rigorously debating the problems of today, my professors lull the class to sleep with lackluster lectures on trivial topics. Do I possess a priori knowledge? What is the form of me? Am I a thinking thing? Let’s be honest: being lost in the clouds never...

Writing and Rejection. →
Somewhere, deep in our garage, I think I still have my first rejection from _The Atlantic_ (ca. 1990). Blue embossed type on heavy card stock if memory serves. Classy. Distinguished. Albeit, not signed. And, I can’t begin to explain the emotional complexity of finding that modest little piece of cardboard in the mailbox of my $275/month garage apartment in Sarasota, Florida. To be dead...
