It’s been far too long since I have posted anything. I have not had time to put any real articles together 1, but I figured that my private journal could be sustained with a post or two with my random, private thoughts and life events from time to time 2. Now it’s nearly spring, and […]
In order to get the ball rolling, open up a terminal…we’ll do all our work from there: wget http://omicron.homeip.net/projects/easy_e17/easy_e17.sh That command will provide us with easy_e17.sh, the handy script which will make updating e17 easier. Now we’ll make it able to run: sudo chmod +x easy_e17.sh Now let’s install the basic tools to get easy_e17.sh […]

It is apparent that your instinctive approach is philosophical, when you find an epistemological statement on your deodorant stick:
Last time, I alluded, in a footnote, to an “elsewhere” wherein William Blake clarifies his mind/body dualism position. I have since been cadged by the masses into both clarifying myself and citing my sources. This quote comes from The Marriage of Heaven and Hell, plate IV (which I linked to in my previous post, before […]
Alright, perhaps it is not yet an official holiday (is it?), but November 28th is in fact the anniversary of the death of this remarkable British poet-artist. It has been far too long since I added a meaningful post here; I have been working on a number of new things which have simply not allowed […]
I’ve decided that a couple of things that I’ve recently read and heard deserve a good review. I eventually hope to put up somewhat in-depth reviews of Anthony T. Kronman’s book Education’s End, an actual review of Kwame Anthony Appiah’s Experiments in Ethics, and The Dead Science’s latest album Villainaire. If I get enough time […]
I’ve finished preparing my “summary” of Kwame Anthony Appiah‘s [amazonify]0674026098::text::::Experiments in Ethics[/amazonify].

My intention is to utilize […]
