The other day a new friend, a colleague, was driving me from the airport and we had to cross a bridge. She hesitated in her speech, looking flustered. She then revved up the car. She turned to me and noted she hated bridges. Rather, she hated driving […]
I do not like circular arguments. I do not like catch-22s. I do not like people who engage in circular arguments to appear as if they are smart. If you have to try hard to appear a certain way, then you truly are not. But I rant and […]
