- Blogs And Citations
So I get an e-mail the other day from someone asking very politely if he could have permission to translate one of my posts into French and put it on his blog. I responded as I usually do to such requests, saying no problem and feel free to reprint anything...
- What Do Philosophers Consume?
This chart is a 100%, scientific, and accurate* representation of what philosophers consume when left unattended. (Click on the image to enlarge it). I hope this helps. You may want to intervene and present your philosopher with nutrient-rich meals every...
- Philosophers In Love: Where To Find A Philosopher
So, let's assume that after all of these blog posts on philosophers, you simply have to go out and find yourself a philosopher of your very own. Where might you find one? I've created a graph that might help you in your endeavors. [Note: This...
- Philosophers In Love: Funny Things About Living With A Philosopher
"A wonderful fact to reflect upon, that every human creature is constituted to be that profound secret and mystery to every other."- From Charles Dickens? A Tale of Two Cities Philosophers, being rather strange in many ways (delightfully strange, in my...
- Philosopher Faces: What Non-philosophers See
Despite the caffeine I've consumed today, I have not been very clear-thinking (there was a brief window of thought-clarity this morning, but it was taken up by work at my real job), so I drew a graph of philosopher-faces for the post. This is an extremely...

New Series: Philosophy Lessons
Due to a recommendation from a follower, I?ve decided to commence a series of posts that explain a little more thoroughly some aspects of philosophy. Think of these as your personal?and very general?philosophy lessons. I will consult my own knowledge from previous philosophy classes and discussions, the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, my own, personal philosopher, and, when all else fails, Wikipedia.
Because I, myself, would probably get too bored with a series of philosophy lessons if they were to be posted every day, I will intersperse them weekly with other posts.
Philosophers, you will love these because you can comment after the post with all sorts of points that I leave out or misrepresent. Then, you can complain to your non-philosophers about my post and explain to them what exactly I should have said, which will open up all sorts of healthy, philosophy-communication.
Non-philosophers, I will make these as unintimidating and interesting as possible. Perhaps there will even be illustrations. This post is not a philosophy lesson, though; as I need to do some research tonight first.
Please feel most free to message me with suggestions, either for topics that you would like to know more about or topics that you think that non-philosophers need to know more about (by email or on this post; my email address is on the left sidebar).
As far as real posts go, I was too busy with real work during lunch to come up with something, so I'll make sure tomorrow's post is extra cool.
I will probably start with some topics in Metaphysics tomorrow, because I really need to get over my first traumatic experience with Kant (Fall of `07). Perhaps a study of metaphysics will help me get over that.
Here's a picture, to apologize. For those of you who have lived in Texas, you know that the bluebonnet picture is a must for every Texan family.
