Are you talking about philosophy or the committee?

And courtesy of [livejournal.com profile] shweta_narayan, the webcomic that ate my life yesterday: Family Man. The Enlightenment! Judaism! University politics! Theological debates! In-jokes about Ovid! In-jokes about Rousseau! Careful research of taxonomically appropriate pine trees! Our half-Jewish protagonist just tried to defend a dissertation on Spinoza at Göttingen in 1768. The werewolves at his new lectureship are the least of his problems.

In the meantime, Kate Beaton has been reviewed by The Economist.

I am not doing anything near that interesting today. I still have this book, though.

If The Economist called me "resolutely silly," I'd be over the moon. Mind you, I'd have to be as good as Kate Beaton.

Family Man? All that and gorgeous. I will try to set aside a day to fall into it.

Everyone: that book is fabulous.
