As has been perhaps obvious, my brain has been on vacation for the last month. Finished the Nz book, went to Disneyland, played Wii, drank the kool-aid, etc. Now I’m expecting my brain back any moment. I’ll need it, since as I finished writing the syllabi for my classes in the upcoming term, I realized that I’d better get some thinking into motion. Short-term projects include two scholarly essays on Nz (on his perspectivalism and naturalism). Medium-term project is the book on Spinoza’s theology. Silly, long term project is a history of the philosophy found in a neighboring possible world. (I might contract out to Erudité Ridiculosis for that one.)

“Finished the Nz book, went to Disneyland…”
That is a delightfully incongruous series of events.

Yes, as I was riding through “It’s a Small World After All” with my daughter, I had this visual of Nz riding along in one of the little boats, head in his hands, on the verge of collapse. Hilarious, in its own sick way.

I’m sure he came out stronger for the experience.
