Language Liberalism Freethought Birds

Verbing Weirds Language only if you're expecting it to work in a simple way. This is a special case of the more general truth that Language Weirds.

Only when a republic's life is in danger should a man uphold his government when it is in the wrong. There is no other time.

The church says Earth is flat; but I have seen its shadow on the moon, and I have more confidence in a shadow than the church.

If we can't find Heaven, there are always bluejays.

The Week in Entertainment

Busy all week, so no movies and no dvds even!

TV: House and Veronica Mars and the Gates and Scrubs ... and Heroes, of course. I have a notion what Linderman wants with Micah, but I could be wrong. Still, how could Isaac be wrong about Hiro killing Sylar? Twice? (Twice wrong, not killing him twice... though on this show, who knows?)

Read: AP Herbert's funny The Trials of Topsy and Topsy MP and Purcer's Fear on Friday. Also Moore's The Island of the Sequinned Love Nun (wahhh! Kimi!) and Coyote Blue which was brilliant.

At 10:28 AM, May 14, 2007 Anonymous had this to say...: Why do you think Isaac is wrong about Hiro killing Sylar?
At 3:14 PM, May 14, 2007 The Ridger, FCD had this to say...: Well, he drew him killing Sylar in the alt-bad-ending universe, yet Sylar was still alive. And unless he gets a new sword, he can't kill him with it even on the right day. But I'm not certain that he's wrong - that was a plaintive cry for enlightenment, really.

I for one am glad Hiro's dad has parted ways with the badguys.
At 6:54 PM, May 15, 2007 The Ridger, FCD had this to say...: The show does not disappoint. I'm so glad I decided to give it a shot.

You cannot leave. You cannot drop the armor now. Why? Because you are needed, more than ever. You are mandatory to keep the energy flowing, the karmic vibrator buzzing, to keep the progressive and lucid half of the nation breathing and healthy and awake and ever reaching out to the half that's wallowing in fear and violence and homophobia and sexual dread, hoping to find harmony instead of cacophony, common ground instead of civil war, some sort of a shared love of a country so messy and internationally disrespected and openly confused its own president can't even speak the language.

After all, you don't hand over all your children the first time the flying monkeys bang on your door...

It's far from over. The tunnel is just a little darker -- and longer -- than we imagined.
