Re: the elite eleven

I tried, Scottie. I tried togging out with Wittgenstein on those
Saturday mornings. For an old guy he was in remarkably good shape. My
poor old asthmatic, overweight body just couldn't keep up.

So I sit on a bench and watch W. and his entrourage whisk by, laughing
occasionally at the snippets of conversation I hear, left wondering just
how well they'd do in a soccer match against either the Enlightenment or
the Pre-Socratic philosophers.

I suspect the game would never start because the sides wouldn't be able
to agree about where to place the goals.

P.S. Have you heard the one about how drinking American beer is like
having sex in a canoe?
