A collection of thoughts and asides about life. And if I think of anything that needs to be mocked, it will show up here.
"If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way."
--Bertrand Russell
Two feuding brothers in Mexico have doomed their native language. The brothers, who haven't spoken to each other in a while, are the last speakers of Zoque, a native language in the Tabasco region. As a result, the language is going extinct.
I don't know why everyone has their panties in a bunch. They should be learning English anyway.
