Blogalone Dies
2008-07-09 06:20:00 The ghost of Beckett hangs in the air. In the dim light I can barely make him out. It's getting dimmer. Soon it will be dark. Things are almost blind already. Never. Never turn the light. Leave the light alone, spare and cold, hanging from the ceiling, never to turn on, never to illuminate, never.Furthering nothing. Signifying nothing. Meaning nothing.I go on. I go on and on. I go on and on and on and on. I fell down in the mud and I could not get up. Just me and the man with the bloody hatchet. He won't hit anyone with it. Not now, not no one, not anyway. I saw Malone in the hospital and Malloy sucking on a pebble.I must go visit mother. Mother before. Mother before she dies. Dying soon, she will die soon. Then I will see her, after she dies, before she dies. I get my things in order, there is nothing left to do.I get up and do it again. I don't know why, but I do it. I do not care, I lost the will to care.Me. Me again. Me again and again and again. Me till the end of time. Me t...

Wikipedia Jews Again
2008-07-02 07:55:00 The latest death toll figures from Hurricane Katrina can be seen on this website here. The famous Russian neo-Nazi video is on this blog here. Updated July 12:Looks like some of the Wikipedia Jews (see this blog here, here, here, here and here for more on them) are operating out of Israeli government computers and the Israeli Embassy in Washington DC. Well, I guess Wikipedia has really hit the bigtime when the diplomats and spy-types start trying to write it.This blog has obtained a secret copy of emblem of the Wikipedia Jews, used by them in internal communications via instant messenger and email to ward off spies and infiltration attempts. They make sly references to this motif throughout their communications with each other. This is the first publication of the cabal's secret sign, and hopefully it will stimulate further research into the workings of this very secret and devious cabal.Even read Thomas Pynchon's book The Crying of Lot 49? It's quite difficult to read, but if yo...

WHAT IT MEANS TO STUDY THE BIBLE AS LITERATURE
2008-06-07 17:09:00 WHAT IT MEANS TO STUDY THE BIBLE AS LITERATUREA Review of Leland Ryken & Philip Ryken (Editors), The Literary Study Bible, English Standard Version (ESV) (Wheaton, IL: Good News Pubs. [Crossway], 2007) ISBN: 978-1-58134-808-8 1913 pp. $49.99By Forrest Wayne Schultz I first encountered Leland Ryken as an excellent commentator on C. S. Lewis, one of my favorite writers and thinkers. With the passing of Clyde Kilby, Ryken assumed the mantle of the leading American authority on Lewis, and, indeed, quite appropriately, Ryken, is now the Clyde S. Kilby Professor of English at Wheaton College. I learned of Phil Ryken after he became the senior pastor of "Tenth Pres" (The Tenth Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia, PA), which I discovered by means of a visit to the Tenth Pres website.

Robot Week Day One: The Best Robot In Literature.
2008-05-19 17:49:00 I have declared it Robot Week on The Best of Everything. Why? Several very good reasons:1. Robots are cool.2. It's going to be a short week for me because on Friday I'm taking a whole day off to spend with Sweetie to celebrate our anniversary, and3. When robots start doing more work for us, we'll all have short workweeks.So Robot Week will be only four days long to presage that; but we'll spend those four days celebrating The Best of Robot-dom.Today: The Best Robot in Literature. There's really only one possible nominee for this honor; I say that because I can think of only one possible nominee for this. Let's face it: Robots are a little under-represented in the world of serious fiction. Or even in the world of nonserious literature. (I'm excluding from this category robots in books that are based on TV series or movies; television and movie robots will be featured later this week.)In fact, if you google "Robots In Literature," as I just did, you get a bunch of Wikipedia jun...
