Pons Asinorum: June 2006
http://sadkingjonathan.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 11, 2006. 360 Degrees of Ping Pong. Perfect Dark Zero was kinda fun, but hard. We played until we spent an hour on a single level because I was unable to find a bright orange fire alarm against a grey wall. Today, I must set down my paddle (Look! Wireless ping pong paddle! And get to work on all the stuff that I have to do this week. Links to this post. Saturday, June 10, 2006. McKenzie is in Maryland, visiting her parents and her best friend. That should be good for her. Links to this post.

The New Narrative Review: January 2012
http://narrativereview.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
The New Narrative Review. A lifetime of books. One week at a time. Friday, January 20, 2012. LCC: PS2116 .D3 1900. Is Daisy Miller a slut or does she just act like one? A crude way to put it, I know. This is the question that Henry James's protagonist Winterbourne cannot seem to answer. Nancy Bentley. Has written that so much of James's novels consist of "girl watching." I'm sure the category works for James's other works, but it seems to me to be a most apt description of his novella Daisy Miller. Forgi...

The New Narrative Review: Hiatus
http://narrativereview.blogspot.com/2012/03/hiatus.html
The New Narrative Review. A lifetime of books. One week at a time. Friday, March 16, 2012. Hiatus is a horrible word in blogging, but at times it becomes a necessary one. On the "About Me" section of this blog it reads "ASK is a writer, editor, and PhD." Now, I'm actually getting paid for the editing portion of that description. Among the things I've had on my plate lately:. Revising a dissertation chapter for journal publication. Working on a conference presentation on Ishmael Reed's Juice. Still, becau...

http://narrativereview.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
The New Narrative Review. A lifetime of books. One week at a time. Wednesday, February 29, 2012. Dreams from My Father (1995). Title: Dreams from My Father. Publisher: Three Rivers Press. LCC: E185.97.O23 A3 2004. I had wanted to write about the influence of Bladwin's writing on Barack Obama and then I stumbled upon an essay by Colm Tobin and thought, "Why bother? It's been done better before." Click here. Links to this post. Friday, February 03, 2012. Author: William Wells Brown. The first novel to be p...

TOMORROW I WANT TO EAT LUNCH INSIDE OF YOU BUT. INSTEAD OF FEELING SAD, I WANT TO FEEL LIKE A TWO-HEADED. MANNEQUIN WITH NO ARMS AND NO IMAGINATION.

And not the lunar landscape you promised. Feb 20th, 2012 at 11:55 PM. I was looking for something dumb and short to watch during my lunch breaks since I've worked my way through Arrested Development. I have to say I was on the fence about putting it in my queue to begin with: I really don't like shows that include audience laughter (like we can't tell when a joke is funny? But it does have Doogie Howser and Willow and That Guy From Freaks and Geeks. Clearly NPH is the highlight of the show, though a lot ...

More on Music: Best Songs, 2006 + Coachella, 2007 | Oublié Sur La Carte
https://oubliesurlacarte.wordpress.com/2007/01/22/best-songs-2006
Oublié Sur La Carte. 8230;an old sphinx unknown to the careless world / forgotten on the map, and whose ferocious humor / sings not, but to the rays of the setting sun. More on Music: Best Songs, 2006 Coachella, 2007. As promised in my last post. Here are the best 30 “other” songs of 2006 – that is, excluding artists from the top 20 albums, limit one track per artist:. Peter Bjorn and John – Young Folks. These aren’t in any order, but “Young Folks” is definitively the best single of 2006. The Pipettes &#...

And not the lunar landscape you promised. Apr 4th, 2012 at 12:24 AM. St Augustine (trans. R.S. Pine-Coffin):. One thing that took me by complete surprise was in Book XII.16 and XII.28, where allows for what amounts to reader-response criticism in biblical exegesis. Groovy! I finished this literally minutes before AdB took the stage in Meany Hall for a talk on the self-same topic/book. Ive been a de Botton fan since reading How Proust Can Change Your Life. The Cask of Amontillado, Edgar Allan Poe:. Holy c...

Robert Anasi: Samuel Beckett
http://robertanasi.blogspot.com/2011/11/samuel-beckett.html
Tuesday, November 1, 2011. Certain questions of a theological nature preoccupied me strangely. As for example. 1 What value is to be attached to the theory that Eve sprang, not from Adam's rib, but from a tumour in the fat of his leg (arse? 2 Did the serpent crawl, or as Comestor affirms, walk upright? 3 Did Mary conceive through the ear, as Augustine and Adobard assert? 4 How much longer are we to hang about waiting for the antichrist? 7 Does nature observe the Sabbath? I, for one, am interested in why ...

Loquats and milk.: Democracy in a field of brambles.
http://loquatsandmilk.blogspot.com/2011/11/democracy-in-field-of-brambles_13.html
Sunday, November 13, 2011. Democracy in a field of brambles. What’s fascinating is not only that this is in the text, but that it goes largely ignored by Christian anarchists, who, as far as I know, focus almost exclusively on the pre-Pauline New Testament. Enter the Book of Judges, chapter 9. Gideon's already refused the throne and denied it to his sons on the grounds that no human king should rule over Israel (see what I mean? I think this sums up the current political landscape rather nicely:. 13 But ...
