Yeah, you really can't make this stuff up.

Thanks, party of fiscal responsibility!

Honestly, not trying to tell you what to blog about. But crucially important to the future of the academy, it seems to me. And only superficially about Israel / Palestine. (Although it's a real scandal in that dimension too; perhaps you're inhibited through conflating the scandals. I certainly understand a reluctance to broach the subject of I/P.)

I hope I don't come across as patronising ot controlling. Thing is, I really appreciate Tha Blog.

Plus, y'know, history. Hunter S Thompson said of P J O'Rourke, 'We have fought back to back with iron bars against people who wanted to kill us'. That's very much how I feel about you, except, you know, I didn't do any fighting.; 11:30 PM

Though, for the public record, we were only going to get our asses kicked, not get killed...

Anyway: you're right.

It's huge.

Huge enough that I'm not sure what to say...

But I should at least link to it/bring it up.; 12:59 PM
