Well, having lost to this ferschlugginer machine my
one long post for the day, and perhaps my sole post on
topoi recently introduced in re: globalism,
capitalism, postmodernism (which, a la
modern/modernism/modernity isn't quite the same thing
as postmodern and/or postmodernity, something to keep
in mind), and maybe even the texts of one Thomas
Pynchon, will bow out for what might very well be the
weekend with this ...

on a piece of the action? Obviously, I'm in desperate
need of something constructive to do ...
