  1. ON STATING THE OBVIOUS: If it's obvious it shouldn't upset anyone, right?
  2. NABOKOV: "I taught thought to mimic an imperial transmitter: an awesome messenger carrying my order of self-destruction to my own brain."
  3. We are all certain of death.
  4. Should his son have destroyed it? (Here's my opinion. If Nabokov wanted it destroyed he should have destroyed it himself.)
  5. CURRENT READING: "The Original of Laura." (The paper is very thick, and I don't want to detach the cards.)
  6. Language was developed so that people could lie more effectively.
  7. If words and sentences are invariably misunderstood, why bother using them? (I'm in favor of gesticulation and grunting.)
  8. A SIGNIFICANT QUESTION: "Is there anything more human than to attempt to defy death?" (Zach Helm by way of Dr. Robert Ettinger.)
  9. Propaganda, journalism, art. Believing is seeing.

  12. GREAT QUOTES: "False hope springs eternal." (Ron Rosenbaum)
  13. There is only one true philosophical problem: What to do next?
  14. I prefer the chains to the hula-hoop. (But I might be unusual in that regard.)
  15. How big is your cone? (No boasting, please.)
  16. I was impressed by the fire-eating! (Anybody would be. Thank you, Fire Plug.)
  17. Photographs teach us that anything with a frame, whether it is an image or text, can be used to mislead and to distort.
  18. I miss Jackpot.
  19. If this is a nightmare, how come I don't get to wake up? (Tomorrow: spicy hot wings. I hope I don't forget my flame retardant suit.)
  20. I wish my various personalities would try harder to get along with each other.
