Sorry for being absent 27 Jun 2011 Stuff has been happening, and I have been Blogor absentibus, for which I apologise. I will soon be doing an introduction to argument series which will begin when I can take material I used in teaching and format it. I am now an unemployed philosopher.

When I was at Seed’s Scienceblogs, I was on easy street. They paid for all the… Read More
Well, maybe you can take candy from babies and resell it to the old ladies as nutritional supplements.
Sorry to hear it. And to think that once we were kings. Oh wait, that never did materialize. Maybe take up lens grinding, I hear that worked out for one guy. Though the dust may have killed him.
While you were gone, we got rid of most of all your stuff and replaced it with new stuff that looks exactly like the old stuff. The challenge is to figure out what is original and what is new.
Were you the same people that moved all the world one foot to the left? I have been unable to find my way around since.
That’s a great Heinlein story for teaching the philosophy of time travel. Never heard of that song though.
When you’re lyin’ the gutter, just remember that you haven’t really been drunk till you’ve woken up in mexico without clothes or a passport, and clutching a bottle of tequila. Been there, done that.
