Nothing is more usual and more natural for those, who pretend to discover any thing new to the world in philosophy and the sciences, than to insinuate the praises of their own systems, by decrying all those, which have been advanced before them. -- David Hume in A Treatise of Human Nature
One. A letter to Travis Morrison is kind of weird, but kind of cool. Getting a response back to that letter is totally awes. I have no understanding of the band The Band, so most of the letter makes very little sense to me, but I understand Zach's need to make his voice heard. And I give him props for it. But, seriously, that third footnote is bullshit.
Two. While watching The Price Is Right this morning, I was amazed to see an adorable, little, old lady totally tear the stage up. She was tiny, probably between the ages of 75 and 80, hunched over, and sounded like a little, old butterfly when she talked. She won the betting round on her first try, and won about six thousand dollars of stuff during her game. Then, to top it all off, she spun (with the help of Bob Barker) the Big Wheel and scored a dime first, and ninety cents on her second try. That's right ... she won $1000. Furthermore, she made $5000 more on her bonus spin, landing on the nickel before the dollar spot. Unfortunately, she lost the Showcase Showdown, but she was so magnanimous and cute, it was hard to feel bad for her. What a memory to have before you die.
Three. Was going to write about how I'd practically given up eating ham, but I won't say another word.
Four. Actually got to fall asleep last night reading something I wanted to read instead of having to read something I had to read. Hume's A Treatise of Personal Nature is going to take a while to get through, but I've been clamoring to read it since I bought it over Christmas Break. Finally. Reading what I want to read.
Up Next: Quality by Talib Kweli -- which has the best introductory four tracks on any rap album I've ever heard; Phrenology by the Roots; and, You Are A Ghostly Presence by the Mt St Helens.
Tomorrow: tbd.
