1. I’m really enjoying my research, but it’s going far too quickly. I am totally the man from the Twilight Zone classic “Time Enough at Last.”
2. It’s Sex
Week on campus this week. There was a big hullabaloo about funding it, but I
haven’t actually heard anything about it. There is nothing particularly bad
about a series of lectures and panels about sex, especially on a college
campus. Although I doubt there were any panels on abstinence and chastity.
3. Favorite
line from TV this week via 30 Rock: “Everyone
knows that the weight of a lie makes your soul so heavy you won’t rise up to
heaven. And you won’t look good in jeans from behind.”
4. Favorite
line from the internet this week via Reddit: “If I know one thing about the
folk of East TN, they're real good Christians - unless you tell
them they have to be! Delightful and ornery bunch of people
y'all.”
5. Valentine’s
Day is this weekend. Normally, it’s a commercialized holiday about sappy love. This
year, it’s about the release of pornographic-Twilight-fanfiction-turned-movie
50 Shades of Grey. Because nothing says love like fantasizing abusive relationships.
And such good writing. This is an actual quote. I guess cheeks are the color of nineteenth century printing? |
6. Next week
starts Lent. So ready for this necessary time.
7. Update on
my dear Pope Emeritus.
