In case you haven’t seen this video yet of Katie Couric self-consciously imitating the Youtube video of Dan Rather:
I would like it better if she didn’t seem like a teen who really wants to get caught shoplifting, but you have to admit this video is weird in a way that would give Baudrillard like five boners. And then render him obsolete.
Speaking of the postmodern condition (and when aren’t we over here at the MC), I want to share with you all an observation that Nick made during one of our intellectual discussions, or “salons” as I like to call them, about Lyotard:
“That dude’s name is Lyotard.”
Here’s another one to point out: 16th-century writer and translator Hieronymus Boner.
Now is the time to make the MC your homepage, if you haven't already.

I rendered Baudrillard obsolete one time. What I did was smoked pot and watched TV. Also, I got a BA.
Also: Peter Gay's standard translation of Nietzsche and Freud have made for a lot of papers that include "translated as 'creativity is the soul dancing in chains' (Gay 100)."
In this paper, I will draw on Lyotard, Boner, and Gay, to show how the sublime can "shatter the conscious like a crystal" (Gay).
Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. If is possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll, I thank. Good bye friend.
My case study for examining the Gay/Lyotard sublime will be the stunning canvases of Larry Poons.
