Ken'th quote:
"Once upon a time there was a tavern
Where we used to raise a glass or two
Remember how we laughed away the hours
And think of all the great things we would do"
I woke up this morning and felt depressed as if in mourning and realised how
big a part of my life this list has been for the past seven years or so;
almost like losing a lover suddenly. The love of thinking-with, suddenly
blown away. Imust properly and thoroughly thank Mal for all the effort that
must have gone into keeping this (not always harmonious) list a-going (it
cannot have been easy). What now?
"i cannot go back to your frownland
my spirit is made up of the ocean
and the sky and the sun and the moon
and all my eye can see
i cannot go back to your land of gloom
where black jagged shadows
remind me of the coming of your doom
i want my own land
take my hand and come with me
it's not too late for you
it's not too late for me
to find my homeland
where a man can stand by another man
without an ego flying
with no man lying
and no one dying by an earthly hand
let the devils burn and the beggar learn
and the little girls that live in those old worlds
take my kind hand
my smile is stuck
i cannot go back to your frownland " [Beefheart from 'Trout Mask Replica']
What now, if frownland is to be refused?
How can we re-group and start a new heideggerlist? I know it is possible to
create new ones (Topica springs to mind...) and there's always the other
existing list (heidegger-dialogue@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx). Is anyone here
interested in starting again, a new beginning? Or shall we dissipate like
dust, 98 particles, something passed...?
Those were the days: *my friends*
au revoir
