The pain and agony philosophers go through to really understand philosophical topics and issues is probably only paralleled by the agony of a mathematician trying to solve a proof that no one has yet solved. Think about it. That’s basically what philosophy is…trying to solve the epistemic underpinnings of our world that, still after thousands […]
Read More Phun for Philosophers…Health and Nutrition Part 3: Sleep (Hopefully last one–then I can get back to more interesting material) Ok, first I’d like to express gratitude to my brother and sister for not only reading but commenting. Now that I’ve thanked you I’d like to discuss some of your comments because they raise some interesting issues. Ez, […]
Read More Health and Nutrition Part 3: SleepThis entry will be about what to eat and how to exercise Ok, I don’t want to get carried away with this topic. I chose it last week because I’d promised myself I’d write. I was tired and it required the least amount of thought. On the other hand I don’t want to leave a bunch […]
Read More Health and Nutrition Part 2Tuesday January 26 2010 It seems that writing a daily blog while working is going to be a considerably bigger challenge than I anticipated.

Read More Tuesday January 26 2010: AnecdotesThe vacation is over! This afternoon I took a flight from Berlin to Munich. The first show of the last leg of the tour starts in Munich tomorrow.

Read More Friday January 22 2010Thursday January 21 2010 Really guys, how hard would it be to standardize USB cables for cameras? Every manufacturer uses a different cable…why? I wanted to put up some photos for this entry because Ezra and I went to Zee German National History Museum. I actually had the foresight to bring Katarina’s camera (neither Ezra […]
Read More Zee German History MuseumDespite being fatigued from a good rasslin’ practice I’m going to do my best to post something…what about? why not rasslin’? Of all the things I love to do, there is nothing I love more than to grapple. This includes any form, from Olympic freestyle, to BJJ, to Judo, to Sambo, to submission wrestling. Whatever. […]
Read More Wednesday January 20 2010I really wish I still believed in popular philosophically indefensible ideas like “everything happens for a reason”. Actually, this statement is true, but not in the way most people believe. First of all, unless an event is random, it has a cause, and that is the reason for it’s coming about. But this is not […]

I woke up around 12:30pm, well actually, Ezra woke me when he got back from school. I rolled over, opened my laptop and checked for any bites. I put some pretty good chum in the water last […]
