The pic of me was taken yesterday, and it's how I look with next to no hair now.
Some of other pics on that page really scare me, though...

reconstruction of the symbol system that must underlie the Reactive Mind
Date: 2002-12-17 08:26 am (UTC)We live together, we act on, and react to, one another; but always and in all circumstances we are by ourselves. The martyrs go hand in hand into the arena; they are crucified alone. Embraced, the lovers desperately try to fuse their insulated ecstasies into a single self-transcendence; in vain. By its very nature every embodied spirit is doomed to suffer and enjoy in solitude. Sensations, feelings, insights, fancies -- all these are private and, except through symbols and at second hand, incommunicable. We can pool information about experiences, but never experiences themselves. From family to nation, every human group is a society of island universes.
Exterminate all rational thought --
That is the conclusion I have come to.
