RED LETTER DAY

I finished the crossword puzzle, both Ken-Kens, and the diagramless puzzle in the NY TIMES this morning.

Big blip up in visits to this blog.  Brian Leiter linked to my list of 25 [26] must-read Philosophy classics.  Nobody can resist a list.

Now that my lecture for Wednesday is prepared, I shall say a few words later today about my major themes.  Preparing a lecture on the MANIFESTO is a little like practicing a Beethoven string quartet.  No matter how well you know, it, it still has the capacity to delight and amaze.

I shall refrain from commenting on Mitt Romney's re-entry into the Presidential sweepstakes.  I consider it a moral imperative not to mock the lame, the halt, and the weak of mind.
