Keep it short- not much to report, except that I am beginning to think that academic jobs may be worse for my creative life than construction, simply because the former is to engrossing. I had students in my office hours until 11pm last night, and teaching two classes 2-hour today wiped me out. Bithc, bitch, bitch, moan, moan, moan.

I started a new file this morning for "Philosophical Notes", which is something I thought I had put down for good. Here's the new addition:

'One thing you might want to say is that the rule of universal generalization, where you go from any random instance to all instances, can’t be justified in all cases, or that it in fact establishes something different than either “for at least one case” or “for all cases”. This is why, for instance, "The American Dream" is paradoxical.'

I have to keep tinkering it, but that's all for today.
