Duly Quoted


Language is a skin: I rub my language against the other. It is as if I had words instead of fingers, or fingers at the tip of my words. My language trembles with desire.

-- Rolande Barthes

Brownback Remembers!

Apparently the following is a real post from Senator Brownback’s real website. This man wants to be your president!


Why is memory not taught at every level of our educational system

April 11, 2007

The greeks believed in such a discipline and the best became Roman slaves, who taugh the Romans. All around the med this was true. Then Atilla must have given all the slaves their freedom, put them on his payroll, send them to Austria to discover Mozart, and guess what, Rome with out Nomenclators (you look it up) Yep Rome fell.

Consider the alternative, teach memory to everyone … this country has always been built by the poor and those in power do not want to continue to lose their advantage.

ARE WE HEADED IN THAT DIRECTION.
