What the Philosophers say about reality is often as deceptive as when you see a sign in a second-hand store that reads: Pressing Done Here. If you went in with your clothes to have them pressed you would be fooled; the sign is for sale.

| Just a cool video that The Google showed me the other day. Thought you might all be interested. (The song is from a band called Lemon Demon, the video is not directly associated with the band. The video guy's website is http://www.eviltrailmix.com/; I can't vouch for the quality of the rest of the videos.) | |
A fire broke out backstage in a theatre. The Clown came out to warn the public; they thought it was a joke and applauded. He repeated it; the acclaim was even greater. I think that's just how the world will come to an end: to general applause from wits who believe it's a joke.
