I quite seriously recommend them - if you already know the stuff they're good cos they're funny, if you don't their a good way to learn. Not up to the standard of larry Gonick's history stuff, but that'd be a pretty hrd achievement to match. I think they're now out as a one-or two-volume graphic.
Never heard of them. But I bet it's pretty easy to make fun of Kant and Anselm's ontological argument.

I think I've said it before : I'm a Phenomenological Existentialist. A category introduced by Colin Wilson, who has lost most of his credibility by being too gullible about ghosts and UFOs, and writing SF. His two major works of philosophy are Origins of the Sexual Impulse and Introduction to Phenomenological Existentialism.

You think you said that before ? Its a lot to forget don't you think ? Do you have selective memory loss or something ?
Strike, I hope your finals go well. I've just finished my last final for this semester. YAY! Christmas break is like my favorite time of year. We get a whole month off.

Thanks cahoots. I just finished my last final about 20 minutes ago. Now I'm just waiting for some people and I'll be gone for a while.
How did your finals go?

This question will be forgotten and never answered.
Mrs Curl is back, and her luggage caught up with her before she left Dublin, so the prezzie-shopping she'd been doing while on her lightning business tour of London, Paris and Dublin was not wasted.
No, when I posted yesterday she was in Dublin, and her luggage hadn't managed to follow her from Paris. A lightning visit to Dublin - apparently not even time for a Guinness.
Okay. I'm really bored. I was supposed to be meeting some people for a small party but apparently they had "better things to do" so I decided it wasn't worth it to go by myself so I've spent the last few hours just trying to not get bored.
