  • Re: Stupid Is As Stupid Does

    In most cases we are not fans of criminal justice solutions to inhalant abuse. All of the products that have a potential for abuse are incredibly useful to society when used in the manner they were intended for and we must always be mindful of that. We will never legislate our way out of this issue. Having said that many States (Indiana where ...

  • Stupid Is As Stupid Does

    When my wife and I lost our son to inhalant abuse in 2001 we were among a small segment of american society that actually knew what ''huffing'' was and that it could actually cause sudden death. We had learned about the dangers of ''dusting'' while our son was in an intensive out-patient program for addiction, but we of course didn't think it ...

  • Of Hubris and Heidegger - by Gilbert NMO Morris

    Heidegger was a Nazi. Heidegger was a philosopher. Does it follow that Heidegger was a Nazi philosopher or a philosopher who was a Nazi or even a philosopher first and Nazi second, or a philosopher who used or sort to use naively the operational systems of Nazism to ply his philosophic vision? Which? To put such questions is to be a ...

  • Re: The Great Henry Louis Gates Mistake

    Mr. Oxboogle I have, of late, come upon your response to my note, and I find it hard to apprehend what you intended to argue. First, there is no meaningful distinction between ''stupid'' and ''foolish'' as you seem to suppose, I think. (Sorry an inelegant sentence on my part). The point is: I AM NOT PRESIDENT. It is NOT for a President ...

  • Friendship and Mourning

    Jacques Derrida wrote: ''Philia [friendship] begins with the possibility of survival. Surviving--that is the other name of a mourning whose possibility is never to be awaited.'' In other words, every friendship is structured from the beginning by the possibility that one friend will die first and the surviving friend will be left to mourn. Death ...

  • Re: Hamster Killers

    Oh, get real! Of course 5 or 6 year-olds can accidentally crush a hamster. They just treat it like a stuffed animal -- sitting on it, fighting over it, forgetting they put it under the sofa pillow when they both start jumping up and down. Children have a hard time with the concept that living things are much more fragile than inanimate objects. ...
