that is interesting. it is often said it would be very interesting for all ILP guys to meet all together. so,PG,was it very interesting for that to happen even on this scale?
PG: “Hi, you’re James No2 right…?”
J2: “In as much as one could represent the essential duality of the quasi-itinerant self under the maxim of a single utterance… Yes.”
PG: “Can I ask you a question…?”
J2: “Quid pro quo, but I would point out that the very existance of your teleological retroinfarctive conjecture, pertaining to my current state of decision-making capability, sans coffee, is an assumption without adequate knowlege.”
PG: “So… Can I ask you a question, or not…?”
J2: “Sure.”
PG: “My question is this: 'With reference to the cultural progression of philosophical thought down the ages, and assuming if you will that it is dynamic process…”
J2: “Yes-yes, go on…”
PG: “… and hence making the temporary assumpion that philosophy is naught but a kind of socio-contextual ‘shorthand’ for the existential ‘longhand’ of life in any particular moment…”
J2: “Interesting, interesting…”
PG: “My question is…”
J2: “What is it…! What is it…!”
PG: “… Does my bum look big in this…?”
well James is nice and prefers chai tea…well he loves coffee and also loves chai tea…so he had chai tea and I had an iced cappucino. We rattled on about philo a bit, i scolded him for his patronizing posts, and then we chatted on, etc. etc.
James/PG - come on, we need more details, like who made the first vaguely flirtatious gesture, were either of you confident enough to swear, who paid or did you go dutch, you know, details. You’ve got to realise that there’s at least a hundred sad, lonely people reading this thread, you’ve got to play to your audience…
I was holding up an ILP sign and wearing a shirt that says “Philosophy rules”…I do live somewhere in cali though I won’t say exactly where. Yes I did dye the hair (its looks OK, not like I wanted) and remedied the bangs predicament with a bobby pin. I think all OG is saying is that you would be next on James’ list since you live in Cali…
