I'm unplugging the internet cable from the back of my computer for the rest of the night. I might post something after I finish this wretched paper.

I'm already quite sleep deprived and sick of koine.

I haven't managed to start hating Lucian of Samosata

yet.

We have a new type of rule now. Not one-man rule, or rule of aristocracy or plutocracy, but of small groups elevated to positions of absolute power by random pressures and subject to political and economic factors that leave little room for decision ( Read more... )

So when the lefties call for a pullout (from a careful pullout as Wes Clark suggests to an irresponsible pullout like some of the protest types demand) they're encouraging the enemy, but when Bush does it...

( The story of my life. )

I almost think that this cover is better than the original.

Now that I'm close to graduation and entering the working world, law school seems appealing to me. I'd pursue it, but I'm afraid that it'd steal my soul before I'd be able to make off with a big enough pile of cash to retire.
