Where’s Neil Postman when you need him?

~LS~ — Sun, 23 Jan 2011 01:22:35 +0000

I'm contemplating teaching Neil Postman's Amusing Ourselves to Death in my Introduction to Humanities class this semester, particularly Chapter 4 ("The Typographic Mind"). I don't feel like scanning the chapter and I couldn't find a pdf or doc... Read more

My first post of the year…

~LS~ — Sat, 22 Jan 2011 16:43:10 +0000

...And it's January 22. I fear this is a sign of how the semester will be. I have over-committed myself to various things at BRCC. Some of what I'm doing is important to me, but it contains elements that are not. Others are important and I enjoy. In... Read more

Mt. Fuji Tour Guide (I’m just wild about Harry..)

~LS~ — Thu, 16 Dec 2010 19:43:39 +0000

Day trip tour guides are hit or miss, in my experience. Only two guides stand out for me from all my tours. One was very fun; he made us dowse for ley lines at the Avebury stone circle in England. The worst one was on our tour to Hadrian’s wall... Read more

Viator Mt. Fuji Tour

~LS~ — Thu, 16 Dec 2010 01:55:24 +0000

The Viator day tour to Mt. Fuji is underrated. This is an indisputable fact. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. The itinerary is pretty easy. We took a bus upto Mt. Fuji, stopping first at a small rest stop along the way. That rest stop is... Read more
