Aardvark: THE AGE OF UNREASON
http://augietheaardvark.blogspot.com/2005/11/age-of-unreason.html
Thursday, November 03, 2005. THE AGE OF UNREASON. The Cheney Administration either has a collective pathological deficit of brain functions, or, like the reaction against reason and rationalism in early modern Germany, we are bearing witness to a fundamental shift to unbridled emotionalism. Sturm und Drang. The Germans called it. For Germany, it was a fateful turn of culture and society, eventually taking them right to Auschwitz and their long death march to historical infamy. To return home. A term ...

Aardvark: SEE SAW
http://augietheaardvark.blogspot.com/2005/11/see-saw.html
Tuesday, November 01, 2005. Light blogging for the next few days while I settle into my new job as document specialist- basically trying to coordinate dozens of different company procedures from dozens of different people into a single, readable format. Much like trying to teach a band of toothless, drunken paddies how to speak perfect Oxford English. The good news is I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance. Tut tut. Cheerio. And all that sort of rot. Posted by Augie at 7:33 PM.

Aardvark: RHETORICAL DEFLECTION
http://augietheaardvark.blogspot.com/2005/11/rhetorical-deflection.html
Sunday, November 13, 2005. Just a quick note before I return to the pressing responsibility of revising my (never ending) dissertation. Moral point: When you see this strategy going into overtime, you can be quite sure that there is some truth to the accusations against the fulminating character assassins. Like the child caught red-handed eating the stolen cookie: "He's lying. I didn't take it.". Posted by Augie at 10:38 AM. Commentary on Current Events, Religion, Politics, Culture and Philosophy.

Aardvark: RANDOM THATS
http://augietheaardvark.blogspot.com/2005/11/random-thats.html
Sunday, November 27, 2005. Whether or not you've been following the debate between evolution and intelligent design, this article by Justic Webb of BBC News. Is very much worth reading: a short summary and some key questions at the heart of the matter. And in the Harvard Divinity Bulletin, Kenneth Miller. Sums up the Catholic position on the weird science. I guess I'll have to forego my valet's Christmas bonus. And Jeeves' was so looking forward to that new gold-plated shoehorn. Takes us back to Watergat...

Aardvark: DIRE WARNING
http://augietheaardvark.blogspot.com/2005/11/dire-warning.html
Wednesday, November 30, 2005. Posting here at the blog has been pretty sparse lately because I recently began a new job, and I'm still making requested revisions to my dissertation. But this morning, before I head out for the 35 minute drive to work, I wanted to weigh on an impending crisis-cum-tragedy. Seymore Hersch in the New Yorker. Posted by Augie at 6:07 AM.

Aardvark: September 2005
http://augietheaardvark.blogspot.com/2005_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 28, 2005. Instead of champagne and cavier. I'm now a doctor of philosophy. The successful and enlightening oral defense of thesis was quickly followed by a rapid descent into the bedlam of gastro-intestinal infection, be it virule of parasitic. In other words, I got stressed out. Spoke with committee members about necessary revisions. Passed. Came home. And fell ill to some germ making the usual rounds. From the Latin Torquere, to twist. Posted by Augie at 2:16 PM. Has an informative...

Aardvark: THE FABLED WAR
http://augietheaardvark.blogspot.com/2005/11/fabled-war.html
Friday, November 04, 2005. This morning, Billmon over at Whiskey Bar. Has (as usual) a must read post based on a conversation he had with history professor and blogger Juan Cole of Informed Comment. What this means is that the Pentagon's ' fly paper' strategy. Go read Bill's analysis. It's a sobering assessment, and frankly a damning indictment of the Pentagon's complete ineptitude and campaign of disinformation. Posted by Augie at 5:51 AM. THE AGE OF UNREASON.

Aardvark: IN MEMORIUM
http://augietheaardvark.blogspot.com/2005/10/in-memorium.html
Thursday, October 27, 2005. Teresa Wright (1918-2005). She passed away this past March 6, but I heard nothing of it in the news. She was one of my favorites from the black and white era, starring perhaps most famously as the outspoken Carol Beldon in the 1942 classic "Mrs. Miniver. My favorite of her performances, though, is in Hitchcock's " Shadow of a Doubt. Beautiful. Classy. Intelligent. Witty. And a striking contrast to the trash we have today parading around on screen.
