It's a comedy set in the afterlife and featuring a deceased ethics professor who talks about not just classic figures like Plato but contemporaries such as T. M. Scanlon.

I read and reread and reread a few novels and probably will reread them a few times more if I live long enough. You should take a poll to see if other readers of your blog only read novels once. s. wallersteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17448905469871566228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5687347459208158501.post-8102801849783533822017-02-02T15:12:16.683-05:002017-02-02T15:12:16.683-05:00Chris, all time favorite tv show [can you get tv ...Chris, all time favorite tv show [can you get tv on a desert islanbd?] would be Star Trek the Next Generation.

I do think it's absolutely important to turn a few republicans against Trump. If just 5-10 can be made to realize he really is a fascist threat to America, then they can work with the democrats to absolutely stall this guy. That said I don't know which republicans to start trying to turn other than my two senators here in GA, and one of them is definitely pro trump.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08250295324149056708noreply@blogger.com
