Bizarre …

… Presidents and Other Fictions - Intercollegiate Studies Institute: Think. Live Free. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)

Most of these remind me of something a character in Umberto Eco's  Foucault's Pendulum  says, that the conclusion arrived at by means of a counterfactual conditional proposition is always correct precisely because the premise is false.

  1. I am chiefly impressed by the popularity of Rex Stout--well, Jacques Barzun thought well of his books, and long ago I enjoyed the few I read.

    1. I want to thank Dr Emu a very powerful spell caster who help me to bring my husband back to me, few month ago i have a serious problem with my husband, to the extend that he left the house, and he started dating another woman and he stayed with the woman, i tried all i can to bring him back, but all my effort was useless until the day my friend came to my house and i told her every thing that had happened between me and my husband, then she told me of a powerful spell caster who help her when she was in the same problem I then contact Dr Emu and told him every thing and he told me not to worry my self again that my husband will come back to me after he has cast a spell on him, i thought it was a joke, after he had finish casting the spell, he told me that he had just finish casting the spell, to my greatest surprise within 48 hours, my husband really came back begging me to forgive him, if you need his help you can contact him with via email: Emutemple@gmail.com or add him up on his whatsapp +2347012841542 is willing to help any body that need his help.
