Professor, get this all out here on the board. So you don't bring it with you to Dino. :)

Right. For Monday, we should shift our focus to the role language plays in thought processes and concept formation. Required reading (listening): the Radiolab podcast Words, which includes a good micro-segment on Shakespeare and English. Not quite Wittgenstein, admittedly, but Jonathan will be able to help us bridge that gap.

If we're doing Wittgenstein and Shakespeare, everybody has to read Tom Stoppard's Dogg's Hamlet, Cahoot's Macbeth and the relevant section of Philosophical Notebooks.

And (local boy) Bruce Duffy's "The World as I Found It."

Nice novel, but nothing in it about Shakespeare that I remember.
 
Dino's is on the west side of 19th, 'tween T and U, n'est-ce pas?

Corkage shows as $7.50 per person, unlimited bottles, which seems pretty reasonable.

They're also featuring a fixed-price, five-course menu now, fwiw.

Looks like a nice place.
 
Good morning comrades,

The six-week-old decided not to abide by his parents' sleeping preferences last night, and so I am not quite my usual cheery self today. I am afraid this means I would only be a drag on the group tonight and I must therefore withdraw.

I hope the wines show well, and Larry, I will have to meet you next time you are in town. Enjoy.

I sure liked it, the image of Moore floating in the sea stays with me.

My memory is correct on the subject, right?

Take a nap so you can join us. I have an Allemand with me.

Tempting (especially given the Allemand retirement thread!) but, alas, it is just not in the cards tonight. Perhaps we should have an Allemand jeeb sometime soon.
