also, what is a self lubricating frame ?

fontanna has done v. well in auctions this season, with no peices not missing their reserves and only one removed, and a handful doubling or tripiling thier estimates.
also a huge number of them, but not one of the slick slashes.

half way through the latest harry potter and i really like the narrative of harry potter, which is weird cause its the first book that i have ever read purely for story.
with this volume, the kid hero and his buddies have also become scared, pissed off, and surley, deeply isolated and suspicous, and the villians have a deep sadism within themselves.

breeders tend to steal positive aspects of queer culture, stop

i have rewritten this headline 4 times b/c tmftml linked it, and now i am all self concious.

thinking of the birth control position again, it was wrong of me, factually and rhetorically, i regret saying it and saying it denied a complexity of the world i belive in.

i would like to have the position on birth control explained to me, calmly by someone on both sides.

Kate Hepburn died,
she was the woman who taught me how to be a man.

edited and deleted many of these for clairty.
although i did not cut calling my churches position on birth control as defacto genocide, i should though, over the top, unfair and inaccurate rhetoric.
genocide means killing an ethnic group, not killing millions of people, and the killing is not on purpose.
having readers who like my stuff makes me a bit nervous.

is calling the catholic churches position on birth control de facto genocide be unfair or inaccurate ?
if i think that (and i can make the arguement, then why am i still in it ?)

a list of the cannon by bloom
this is a conserative, eurocentric and masculine list and has many problems with translation and collections
but my reading is perscriptive and i use it every so often as a what to read list.
(for the curious, i have read 230 on the list almost all in translation)

there is something sad here
that history is lost, and the objects become meaningless/indiscernable.
meaning comes not directly from the text, but the impliactions of the text (of course this is the case with texts in the languages we speak,
the natural consquences are just more clear here)

this reminds me of borges

i was supposed to, and was going to, go to a focus group today, but i was having too much fun, and fucked off.
denying my obligations for pleasure is an on going problem of mine. the central problem of my life i think

glenys called me on not giving liberals enough credit, and i think shes write.

concerning jeffs comments on psalm 131:

i think that every so often we need to notice the femmine face of god, b/c
he/she is as vast and mysterious as the universe, to make it human is deeply conflicted.
christ had a penis, and he prayed the our father though ?

since meeting bryan, i have become more prideful, lately i can say the words, i am proud about this work or that and not feel sinful.
i am proud of this blog. mostly for its length of time, and for its chaos.
speaking of pride... my friendster profile has almost a dozen interweb nutters telling me how virtous i am, and i dont belive a word, or at least how they compliment me seems to be just ordinary, aside frome ned who mystifes.

humbleness a virtue, pride the mother of all sins.

"Form is emptiness; emptiness also is form. Emptiness is no other than form; form is no other than emptiness."

everyone hates themselves. it's the curse of being self-aware.
but eventually you become m ore aware of others and realize that they're just as pisspoor
so hopefully you end up with a benign amusement at yourself

a close and thorough reading against scalia
from daze reader

notice how he treats marriage laws as tort law, a good and useful example as far as im concerned.

although he needs to seperate moral and legal issues a bit more. (ie making incest illegal is problematic and impractical, it is sure as hell immoral (and really really creepy)
