University lecturer and uneven blogger. View my complete profile. The Weight of Autumn. What am I reading? Monday, September 04, 2006. What am I reading? So far, apparently, not much. At least not much that I have wanted to write about. This will all change soon - it has to. Goodbye, August. Here's hoping that September manages to make me begin again. Posted by spike 8:55 am.

University lecturer and uneven blogger. View my complete profile. The Weight of Autumn. What am I reading? Sunday, October 22, 2006. The Weight of Autumn. The dreariness of these sentiments has lately been matched by the expected, and late, changing of the season here in the Northeast. Friends in my previous Northeast have told me it is similar, but worse, there: we have rain and more rain, they have snow made leaden by rain. Fall, leaves, fall; die, flowers, away;. Lengthen night and shorten day;. What ...

Dangerous and True: June 2006
http://dangerousandtrue.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Revelations that are dangerous and true are what I want from others and what I'll offer you. Thursday, June 29, 2006. Why Are People So Uninterested in What Disinterested Means? This is another one of those really fastidious distinctions, but I am annoyed that most people can't be bothered to use disinterested. Correctly. The primary definition of disinterested. Is "free of bias and self-interest; impartial," as in, "the decision should be made by a disinterested. When they should use uninterested. What ...

Dangerous and True: March 2006
http://dangerousandtrue.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Revelations that are dangerous and true are what I want from others and what I'll offer you. Wednesday, March 15, 2006. Et al, et cetera, et ux. I just came across a document in which the author used "et al" when he should have used "etc.". This is a mistake common among people who are trying to appear smarter and better educated than they really are, and it annoys the crap out of me. So as a public service, I'm going to explain what these three phrases mean. Please make a note of this. Speak of the Devil.

Dangerous and True: January 2006
http://dangerousandtrue.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html
Revelations that are dangerous and true are what I want from others and what I'll offer you. Tuesday, January 31, 2006. OK, I'm going to complain about something else that happened at school. This semester, two of my classes are lit classes: a senior-level class for English and creative writing majors on contemporary nonfiction prose, and general education class on women's literature. One is Through the Narrow Gate. But I stood firm. And lo and behold, when they came to class after the weekend, they said...

Dangerous and True: May 2006

Revelations that are dangerous and true are what I want from others and what I'll offer you. Wednesday, May 31, 2006. Sometimes Technology Really Does Make Everyone's Life Easier. I recently called a good friend of mine. When her partner answered the phone, I asked to speak to my friend. Her partner then said, not all that politely, "She's unavailable. Who's calling? So fucking there, you fucking fuck.". Maybe next time, if the message isn't urgent, I will. Posted by bluestocking at 11:22 AM. Contrary to...
