But here there are no cows

High temp today, here: 1. Dewpoint then: 0. High dewpoint: 0.
High temp today in TO: 3. Dewpoint then: -1. High dewpoint: 0.
Low today on the balcony: 0. High: 1.1. Current: 0.1.
CPA paper sent. (Actually, I sent two, since the cool kids last year were giving three (so this year they instituted a rule that you could only send two, which led me to believe, which I didn't really before, that it's actually kosher to send more than one). The other one was already in the can, having been rejected by the APA last year. I sent it to the CPA now because I don't know what else to do with it. It's on Aristotle and happiness.)
Here, for your amusement, is its title: "The Glass Shatters and Ducks Turn to Rabbits: Bad Faith and Moral Luck". And here is a sentence: "He is all duck; I was duck with flickers of rabbit."
And to think, Canadian taxpayer, right now, I'm writing this stuff for FREE. This is worth way more than yer twenty-five bucks a week for beer and popcorn.
Yeah, if, as is looking not-impossible (though I still can't quite believe it), we end up with the shortest-lived Conservative government since Sir Charles Tupper's, one good thing might come out of it: the institution of The Beer and Popcorn Supplement. (I'm surprised Tupper's Wikipedia entry makes no mention of the Nova Scotia secession movement--Canada's original secession movement--which opposed his taking Nova Scotia into Confederation and which briefly ran him out of office as premier of Nova Scotia shortly after Confederation. I wouldn't know anything about that had I not read the Supreme Court reference on Quebec secession for the philosophy of law class I TAed last year.)
And now, the invention of more imaginary courses, and fantastical research programs, for improbable jobs.
Oh yes, oh yes, the end is nigh or something: today someone (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tam_phd, in fact) posted a link to her/his eljay on the Foucault list. Eventually it will all be eljay. Only eljay.
