Have Wit, Will Travel: Rules are Meant to be Broken
http://carriagewit.blogspot.com/2010/09/rules-are-meant-to-be-broken.html
Have Wit, Will Travel. Saturday, September 18, 2010. Rules are Meant to be Broken. Today my youngest sister told me she was reading a book called "The Rules". I was only vaguely aware of this book before, but the more she described it, the more I did not like it. The book argues that in order to attract and marry the man of her dreams, a woman should be 'hard to get'. The underlying philosophy of which is that women should not aggressively pursue men, but rather ought to get the men to pursue them. 6 Don...

Have Wit, Will Travel. Monday, October 26, 2009. Vacation, all I ever wanted/Timeless Movies. I realize that my past couple posts may seem like I am having a bad time out here, but I'm really not. I just write about the things that get me thinking, and usually that has to do with human nature. And that's my list. In short, I value inspiring soundtracks, the hero's journey, powerful messages of morality, and I seem to be a sucker for heroic sacrifice for a lost cause (The ending of the Last Samurai, f...

Have Wit, Will Travel: May 2012

Have Wit, Will Travel. Thursday, May 3, 2012. The diaper is in actuality a whitish pair of briefs, sometimes accompanied by a men’s sleeveless undershirt, (colloquially known as a ‘wife-beater’). He does indeed have a bow and arrow, but rather than the cute little plunger-like darts one sees on cartoons, his arrows are jagged, designed to inflict damage when removed. These serrated arrows are then dipped in a love-inducing venom and fired with precision towards his victims. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Have Wit, Will Travel: June 2010

Have Wit, Will Travel. Tuesday, June 15, 2010. Free Market Mind Trick. I hate free market economies. Or rather, I hate the innovations that come from them. More specifically, I hate having to choose between two high price items that both seem equally great. Its like all of a sudden everyone's got little computers in their pocket, like Penny from the old Inspector Gadget cartoon! The future is now! In this example, the future is a cartoon from the late 80's, but you get the idea). Then one day, out of now...

Have Wit, Will Travel. Tuesday, August 24, 2010. The Return of the King. Warning: In case you couldn't tell by the title of this post, I'm going to geek out a little. If you're geeky enough to read blogs but not geeky enough to admit you enjoyed the Lord of the Rings movies, you should probably stop reading. ;). From Enya's "May it Be" (The Fellowship of the Ring soundtrack):. May it be an evening star. Shines down upon you. May it be when darkness falls. Your heart will be true. You walk a lonely road.

Have Wit, Will Travel. Tuesday, March 30, 2010. Ostensibly, one of my projects out here has been to research French folklore for the thesis I am writing. I like looking at the legend and then finding out what parts of it come from history and which parts are myth. Unfortunately, in the case of the story of Bluebeard, the truth is far more disturbing than the fiction. Warning: The true story is deeply disturbing. If you have a weak stomach, stop reading when the fairy tale ends. Once the war hero retired ...

Have Wit, Will Travel. Wednesday, February 29, 2012. Idiocracy: The Corruption of the American Dream. Note: When I use the word "Santorum" in this piece, I am talking about the politician, not the more common definition that shows up when you google the word. I'm a bit of a Francophile, and I'll use France now by way of contrast. France is a country that values its intellectuals. Philosophers are rock stars to the French. When Sartre was alive, his opinion was sought out on matters of social ...Carl Saga...

Have Wit, Will Travel. Friday, February 19, 2010. Carriage Wit Classics: Paris, Its Not Just For Lovers Anymore (Day 1). In today's Carriage Wit Classics, I'm revisiting my first trip to Paris, two and a half years ago. Paris: Its not just for lovers anymore (Day 1). I decided I would be 'roughing it' this trip, foregoing a shower and change of clothes in favor of traveling light. I had my wallet, cellphone (unusable except as a watch and camera), train ticket, and my visa on my person. Before yo...After...
