Evening, Moonbats
Is this about Hitler jerking off or Lee Siegel?
After my recent trip to Iraq, I am even more convinced that the situation there is precarious, but hopeful. I see hope in the Iraqi people. I believe this hope will be the foundation of a new Iraqi society. Much remains to be done, and I think we need a plan to turn this country over to its citizens. I will continue to work with the leaders in our country, as well as leaders in Iraq, to find a solution that protects the future of Iraq, and the pride and dignity of its citizens.
IOW, If elected, you bet your worthless ass I'll bomb the everloving shit out of them untill they democrasize themselves.

One of the more enjoyable moments I have had in the course of writing my diss was when I was able to show how much less radical Norman Mailer's first novel was than many pulp novels of the day.
Irony is too puny a sword in this epic battle.

Es verdad.
Siegel is obsessed with jack booted fantasies of Hitler jacking-off, it's ironically ironic.
I can't read that entire review. I simply cannot. Too much prose.
Siegel:
Somewhere along the line, Dieter remarks on "that curious human nature, which forces its way into existence between the hazards of urine and excrement, yet will later dream each night of a noble life." Inter faeces et urinam, another of this novel’s themes, is a further twist on "nakedness" and on mortal helplessness.

Well, you are not a Republican so I think you fail to have the proper perspective.
If you're Jewish, there is no non-observation to be made about the Holocaust that is too empty, stupid, ahistorical or laughable to be rejected. One wonders what would happen if a kraut wrote a comic book about the extermination of Jewish plague rats by cartoon cats or "Everything is Illuminated" or crap about Hitler's masturbative habits being somehow important. If an Armenian wanted national attention for a fixation on how Kemal Ataturk took his coffee and what that meant in terms of Turkish government policy would anyone pay attention to him? Lee Siegel is an embarassment and we predict he will die richer than any of us.

One of our favorite features of the Howard Stern show, the Black Israelites, would jabber about how the Nazis had four uniforms. They introduced this fact one Great Nazi at a time -- Goebbels had four, Goering had four (we're pretty sure he had more but we know what they meant), Himmler had four even though he had his own service and all theirs were black, etc.. This quartet of uniforms was terribly important. We do not recall why (although, and this prolly isn't it, in East Asia the Chinese for death puns with the Chinese for four, making four unlucky. Also "happiness" puns with "eight."). If we submit this same idea to Lee Siegel under different names, how much money do you think is in it? A numerical kabbalah thing about four being bad, in light of the unique horror of the Nazis.

The Iranians have been reporting many UFOs lately, some crashing. They're speculating it's American spy planes and new technology...
UPDATE: There were preliminary reports of a possible huge explosion in the Iranian desert on Thursday, but these have not been followed up in the general media. Iran News reports that the object was glowing brightly as it crashed in the Barez Mountains in central Iran on Wednesday morning. The object was observed to be on fire as it crashed, and was emitting thick smoke. Similar incidents have been reported all over Iran for the past year, and many officials believe that they may be US espionage devices.

A day without beauty is like a day without sunshine
I never leave the house without it
the beautiful is not possible without mortality. or, death.
Does mortality look fat in that dress?

No such thing as too much chocolate.

I would die to look like mortality!
my point is that beauty makes sens only with a limit on experience.
Sorry to hear it, euph.
If they nuke Iran's supposed nuclear bomb making facilities, there would never be a way to verify that Iran was actually working toward building a nuclear weapon. American and European scientific teams wouldn't be able to examine the sites because they would be "too hot."

Who gives a shit if Iran is working on a nuke? Frankly, they'd have to be six sandwiches short of a picnic NOT to be working on nukes, because nukes are the only thing that keeps Little Boy Boots at home with his armymen.

And though she tried her best to help me
She could steal but she could not rob
and though she thought i knew the answer,
well i knew what i could not say
and so i left the police department
and got myself a steady job,
and though she tried her best to help me,
she could steal but she could not rob.

It's crumbelievable.
Culture of TrÜth
blame it on RJ Crumb
There are a number of really odd works from the late 18th century devoted to defining the "beautiful" v. the "sublime."
The sublime is that which is large, and curved, and far away, according to one of the, um, authorities on the subject.

Dr. Who seems to be able to appreciate beauty.
"There were now and then, though rarely,the hours that brought the welcome shock, pulled down the walls and brought me back from my wanderings to the living heart of the world. Sadly and yet deeply moved, I set myself to recall the last of these experiences. It was at a concert of old music. After two or three notes of the piano the door was opened of a sudden to the other world. I sped through heaven and saw God at work. I suffered holy pains. I dropped all my defenses and was afraid of nothing in the world. I accepted all things and to all things I gave up my heart. It did not last very long, a quarter of an hour, perhaps; but it returned to me in a dream at night, and since, through all the barren days, I caught a glimpse of it now and then. Sometimes for a minute or two I saw it clearly, threading my life like a divine and golden track." Steppenwolf - Herman Hesse

Charm’d magic casements, opening on the foam
Of perilous seas, in faery lands forlorn. 70

No, no. Not at all. Many very nice people stay downstairs.
mena, just realize that you are allowed and have every reason to feel the weight right now.
Nancy, darling. Are you up for some email?
Holy crap! Has anyone read the wikipedia page on bi-polar disorder?
dammit mena, I can never stick around long, gotta pick up the kids from the movies. Take care and know that you have a lot of people who love you, both here and elsewhere....including all of the students you've touched.
And including people who just read what you write. Like me.
I am asleep yet strangely awake...
I tried to comment on your homepage RM but I don't have a password, drat.

I had thought only those on the Right spent so much time spewing venom. I was wrong. As for Mailer: as the very fine critic Richard Poirer has said in his book on Mailer: Mailer is more interesting when he is wrong than most writers when they are right. Go forth and condemn the article for what it sayhs and not the man because yhou are snarkyh smarties. Siegel is right on when he claims that Mailer's Executioner's Song is a great American classic. But you have not read it, right?
"Brilliant, mesmerizing, a dazzling achievement that successfully challenges the conventions of fiction. You don't read Tours of the Black Clock so much as surrender to the dizzying stream that rushes past conventional boundaries, straight into the wounded lives of its characters."
