Maddox, on kid's art.

[I will be further hijacking DR's post for my own schmaltzy yet nefarious means later.]

I see london, I see france. . .

Actually, what I see is an unending stream of spam to the office's Hotmail account proclaiming to be an "exclusive" source for the "bootleg" Hilton pr0n mpeg.

Today, I am the human Palm Pilot. No, not that way, this was an abrupt segue, you pervs.

"What's so-and-so's email address? And what's this guy's? And what's this other dude who I talk to all the time's? Man, I can't remember anything this morning."

The sad thing is, he has two of the three within typing distance, if he'd open up his day planner [Palm Desktop]. That's what I did. And the one that wasn't in there, I just pulled up the same inbox he has and checked the return address.

This bodes both ill and well - I'm gonna get called on to do a lot of stupid shit, but unless he gets sharper soon, he'll probably be amenable to knocking off early.

This was a well-done quiz.

[which I snitched from inlaterdays

1. Epicureans (100%)
2. Nietzsche (92%)
3. Prescriptivism (83%)
4. Thomas Hobbes (83%)
5. John Stuart Mill (81%)
6. Jean-Paul Sartre (79%)
7. Spinoza (70%)
8. Kant (70%)
9. Jeremy Bentham (66%)
10. Stoics (64%)
11. David Hume (62%)
12. Ayn Rand (60%)
13. Cynics (58%)

15. Aristotle (52%)
16. Aquinas (46%)
17. Nel Noddings (32%)
18. Plato (25%)
19. St. Augustine (20%)

I'm surprised I came out as un-Rand-y as I did. I find myself agreeing with the short list of things under Thomas Hobbes almost more than I do with the Epicureans'. And, typically, I am all "you go boy!" for my boy Freddy-Bill Nutsy, to wit:

# We have free will
# There is no God
# Social conformity should not hold us back
# The interests of others should not restrain us
# We should be passionate beings
# Masculinity, strength and passion are the highest qualities in a person
# Conventional morality is a crutch to man

Now, if you'll excuse me, there's an abyss that's made an appointment for a staring contest. ;-)
