Update on my Wife’s Surgery

I tweeted that I was going to the hospital with my wife for surgery – it was not anything big or unplanned – we’ve known about it since a little before the baby was born.  Thanks for all of the well-wishes, prayers, thoughts, emails, etc. The surgery was necessary (and successful) – we went in on Thursday around 11am and came home from the hospital on Saturday.  My wife is walking around (she has to four times a day to prevent blood clots), but has good medication and is resting a lot.  It’s not easy to do this with a three month old baby, but we’re doing it

humanbeing1940 on ‘Do philosophy and the humanities serve any practical purposes?’

Philosophy or more so practical wisdom can be benificial in one’s life with all the stresses of living and pursuit of happiness through false means. Being philosophical can definately help towards opening the mind towards self-knowledge and realising most of the stresses of life is down to us. Philosophy should be also used to liberate the mind to perceive the unneccesary pressures we put on ourselves to conform to modern living, and ultimately one could derive contentment (happiness in philsophical terms) and peace of mind from within

Vomit: What’s (not) Great About Unemployment Insurance

I was surfing around looking at stuff when I came across Penelope Trunk’s Brazen Careerist website.  This is a site where all kinds of people blog about Gen Y job search and career management issues.  I found a post called 10 Things To Do When You Are Unemployed , and thought “I’ll check that out, I’ve written about that stuff before.” The first line just about made me puke: I am lucky enough to be able to survive quite comfortably with the unemployment checks that come in every week. Oh my gosh.  Did Joshua really just admit that he is thrilled to be living on the dole ???  He goes on to say that he had a tough job at a hotel, and needed to take a break.  His words: “ I have taken the time off to do the things I love to do. ” You have taken time off?  Dude, you are about to lay out 10 things that you are doing while the Government (I mean, my) tax dollars pay you to just chill out.

The Many Benefits of Student-Led Writing Workshops

Having tried with little success to coach college freshmen on better writing skills, the idea was brought up to have them workshop with one another rather than have myself or another teacher edit and respond to their papers.

Virginia writes: I am looking to change careers from the clerical and retail fields into working full-time with animals, people, or plants/flowers, as my career counselor has advised. I don’t know where to begin — any advice? The Career Doctor responds: I think you are on the right track in identifying a new career field that you want to change into — one based on your interests and abilities — but I think you need to take a two-prong approach to make a successful transition from your old career to the new one
