5:30 get up... run run run...

I don't think Op Ivy had postive connotations in their song healthy body sick mind... ("working all the time" errr was it "overtime"?)

But any hoo... Had picnic Saturday with about 150 people show up!!! Monday morning... got to run drop off keys to park... got to read about 40 pages in logic homework... got to finish Nietzsche reading and start marx reading... hope to start Nietxsche paper tomorrow...

Don't have time to blog... or read this interesting looking post from Brad Delong....
"Conservatism"
I do not believe that conservatism is a political philosophy. Conservatism is the practical principle that the pieces of furniture you have that suit and are comfortable should not be thrown away. And conservatism is a rhetorical mode of justification--effective on those who respect authority. But it isn't a philosophy.
Go read more indepth... I want to follow up more on it as well.

Dad hope you are feeling better... go read one of the stoic philosophers...
"a smile
a breath of fresh air
the laughter of children
yeah we got it good..."

In eleven years of college (mostly part time), my first logic class in 1988 was my favorite and has had the greatest impact in my life since "growing up".

Don't skimp on studying even if you have 40 pages a day to read. You'll get it.
