- Philolsophers haz ur Leviathan right heer. (Also, ur Schrödinger, ur Locke, & ur Althusser.)
- Anthony Doerr’s eulogy for his wife’s 96-year-old grandfather ends with the image, “To the right of the steering wheel in Pop’s car was a hand-lettered sign: ‘Don’t go ogling at babes. Pay attention.’” Right on!
- Marty! Don’t go ogling at babes. Pay attention!
- Liveblogging Cormac McCarthy on Oprah.
- This NYT story about the always-expanding universe, also linked at right, is amazingly depressing assertion that the universe itself is working against empiricism. It’s quite odd, too, to think that acceleration is what will ultimately make the universe suck.
