One of the dorms on campus is advertising a COMMUNIST PARTY tomorrow, with posters with Soviet Union propaganda pictures and slogans like "Red is the New Black" and "We Have Zeppelins!". All in good fun, I'm sure, and mocking old foes is a good way to ensure they don't rise again (see Mel Brook's repetoire [he's Jewish, by the way]), but I can't help but wonder if the school would approve of something else along similar lines. Say...
Fascist Party! Black is the New Black!
Maoist Party! Let a hundred shots be quaffed! Let a hundred minds be expanded!
Nazi Party! Heil to the King of Beers!

Fall Break!
Unfortunately, it's only two days, but at least I can catch up on my sleep (or maybe posting?).

And Believe Me I Am...Still Alive!
Yes, that's the second time I've made that joke. No, I don't care.
For your troubles...

Barack Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize
Congratulations, Mr. President, but I hope you don't mind standing with the likes of Yasser Arafat. Rigoberta Menchú, Le Duc Tho, F.W. De Klerk...really, it's not all a pantheon of greats.
And would the others of you congratulating the president stop spouting that messianistic canard of "politics of hope instead of fear"? It's annoying, and probably unlikely.

Random Thoughts #9
Social Justice, nominally: a belief in various forms of benevolent progressivism, such as environmentalism, equality for all races and sexes, etc.
Social Justice, interpreted through the many acts of college: "Hey, let's get together with a bunch of people we don't know, be told what to chant by other 'higher' organizers, carry picket signs and posters with trite and populist slogans, and march up and down and raise holy hell for a cause we're fairly neutral about."

(Ties in pretty well to Random Thoughts #7)
Bisexuality means twice as many chances to get shot down in flames.
Blessed are the asexuals, for their skies come flak-free.

I am a cynic. I LIKE being a cynic.
I am a pessimist. I LIKE being a pessimist.
I am a loner. I LIKE being a loner.
They mean a lot more for my sense of identity than (lack of) masculinity, sexuality, or racial pride.

The Beginning...or the end?...of Some Artsy Thing
There are no mortal or divine messiahs.
And if the world should meet an early end
It will not be by whim of God or Gaia
But by the darkest vagaries of men.
