Philosophers

Keep it concrete. That's why I hate philosphers. They come up with some abstract thought experiment like what happens if you take two prisoners and separate them and say that the one ratted on the other? The one you say ratted on the other one gets killed. You don't do that in prison. End of thought experiment.

Paraphrase of CWRU professor

Munching on Asphalt

Out on my second ride with my new shoes and pedals. In the middle of the intersection of Madison and Warren I was unclipped with my left foot and clipped in on the right. So, I leaned to the right and rolled right over. The upside is that it was extremely unpainful to fall over in a bike. Haven't done that since I was 8 or so. Downside is I can't go crying home anymore. First, I was nowhere near home, second Meagen was at work, third, I was still attached to the pedal. Next skill to learn is the flying rollover unclip maneuver.

Iain Libre

He is a lowly public health intern by day, inputting data, making photocopies, carrying charts. He struggles to help keep the humble homeless clinic afloat. Tired, however, of being the low man on the totem pole for too long, he gives way to his passion. By night, he becomes Iain Libre, an amateur bare knuckle boxer. As he climbs his way to the top, he discovers that this new talent might be the answer to all of the clinic's financial struggles. The only thing that stands in his way is the clinics opposition to boxing contests. Will they see the opportunity before the bills come due?

Holidays

Well, despite what Rogue has to say about it, nothing can beat a good Stabat Mater on Holy Friday.
