The University of Muri: A dictionary of shit
http://www.universityofmuri.com/2013/05/a-dictionary-of-shit.html
The University of Muri. A dictionary of shit. A lie Often discussed as "complete horseshit". Not quite the truth, but not a lie in the same way as horseshit. To be a "bullshit artist" is not entirely negative, as society recognizes that these people often become rich and famous. Someone who is scared. Something that obviously must be boring. From one of many classic Robin Williams lines in Good Morning Vietnam regarding a man who was "boring as whaleshit". Yet to be validated empirically. To care, or not...

http://www.universityofmuri.com/2007/11/war-between-transportation-community.html
The University of Muri. War between transportation, community development planners enters its fifth day. Loud shouting, flying acronyms and rampant gesticulation marked the fifth day of internecine clashes between transportation and community development planners, sources tell Saturbia.

With faux-colonial McMansions. The land use p...

The University of Muri: Friends in France

The French are much more polite than you would be led to believe by the ignorant traveler set, but it is true that making real friends can be hard. But you know what cuts the loneliness? People come and visit, like, all.the.time. She has even started reading some back issues of TRB and now drops "mode choice" whenever she can. Show off.).

The University of Muri: DSK
http://www.universityofmuri.com/2011/05/dsk.html
The University of Muri. This is a fact that seems somewhat lost on the American media, especially in the days following the crisis. Perhaps this makes sense - we are far more fascinated with the universal questions of gender equality, misogyny, sexual harassment, racism, power, the impunity of the elite, and the presumption of innocence than the more temporal questions of who will run France. There have been some great pieces in the NYT. All photos are the author's, unless noted.
