Wondering...

Do you think people who get upset about seeing signs that say "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas" also get upset when hotel signs say "Welcome!" rather than something like "Welcome, Interstate Managers!"?

Take that, Hollywood...

Still nothing to tell the internets - perhaps I'm in a slump. Or maybe I'm going for tall, virtual, and mysterious. You're welcome to be the judge. In the meantime, I'm trying to put together a reading list for one of my courses next term which equates to hurriedly reading all sorts of books and articles (I'm getting set, I think, to opt for a reading list). I could ramble about it, but it isn't grabbing me.

So instead, I'll offer you this which is the most interesting thing I've read in days (but then, I'm grading so there you have it):

We can not pardon you for never filming girls as we know and love them, boys as we see them every day, parents as we scorn or admire them, children as they astonish us or as they spark only indifference, in short, things as they really are.
- Jean-Luc Goddard

Hopefully, I'll have something more to tell you soon. In the meantime, my poppets, here's to the world as it really is.
