Navigation By Dead Reckoning

"In the midst of this chopping sea of civilized life, such are the clouds and storms and quicksands and thousand-and-one items to be allowed for, that a man has to live, if he would not founder and go to the bottom and not make his port at all, by dead reckoning, and he must be a great calculator indeed who succeeds." -Henry David Thoreau, "Where I Lived, What I Lived For," in Walden, 1854.

Back In A While.

I haven't had much of a burning desire to write lately, likely the result of reading the undergraduate papers I've been grading for much of the past few weeks. As such, I'll be back when the batteries recharge. In the meantime, Here are some fine weblogs that you may enjoy in lieu of my own:
