>Hey Laughing Man, If you are the black sheep of this family, then I am the >retarded monkey. Actually, I’m here as a representative of the White Mans Guilt more than anything else. I’m the Defender of the Weak wherever I find Him: the Post-Structualist, the Analytical Philosopher in general, the Upper East Side Snob, the Add-women-and-stir Feminist, the good-hearted Communitarian; they can all count on me being there when in distress. Actually, the Retarded Monkey Spot is my plan B, so save a seat for me, willya. /The WMG Man PS It IS Friday and I’m taking off my Laughing Man bag tonight, to walk the streets of our beautiful capitol as a Completely Normal Person. A tremendous weekend to you all, fishes! (I thought of ending my today’s ramblings with a bible-passage I’ve always though beautiful, 3 John 17, which in a word-for-word translation from the Swedish version says: “Greet the Friends, each and everyone especially”. Since this doesn’t come out to well in English, as far as I can judge, I looked the passage up. To my disappointment, it says merely: “Greet the friends there by name”. Which isn’t quite the same sort of semi-paradoxical statement.) Anyway. Greetings to you all, each and everyone especially. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
