I knew that Brazil, Russia, India and China were BRIC. I did not know that Portugal, Italy [Ireland/Iceland], Greece [Great Britain], and Spain were PIGS. Axé.
Reviewing Reeducation
08/05/2010
I dislike invasion very intensely, yet I am easily invaded. This became evident in the third grade when I could not handle a classroom bully. My mother realized it was destructive and asked whether I would prefer to home school for the rest of the year. I said yes and experienced a great sense of … More Reviewing Reeducation

The Blackguard Visits
06/05/2010
All the majors in my main department take certain required classes together. This semester two such classes were given, one by me and one by the Blackguard. This week the Blackguard visited me with a magnanimous air. “My students really enjoyed your class,” said he. I understood I was meant to be grateful for his … More The Blackguard Visits

Rosa divina

We have recited this poem before. Rosa divina que en gentil cultura eres, con tu fragrante sutileza, magisterio purpúreo en la belleza, enseñanza nevada a la hermosura; amago de la humana arquitectura, ejemplo de la vana gentileza, en cuyo sér unió naturaleza la cuna alegre y triste sepultura: ¡cuán altiva en tu pompa, presumida, soberbia, … More Rosa divina

Olodumare

Each day is so unique and so unrepeatable, and I would so like each day and night to last and last. Every scene so much like itself. The vegetables from the organic garden are not at all like those from the stores, and do not even resemble the ones from the farmers’ market very closely. … More Olodumare
Ce moys de mai
01/05/2010
This weekend we are not supposed to be singing, but Jazzfest is streaming on. I signed up to volunteer for coastal restoration. Et bon gré mal gré, on chantera comme on chante toujours le “moys” de mai. On chantera des renards. Now is the month of Maying. “The Spring clad all in gladness / doth … More Ce moys de mai
