"The limits of my language means the limits of my world."
-Ludwig Wittgenstein
"An error does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation, nor does truth become error because nobody sees it."
-Mahatma Gandhi
Segal's Law:
A man with a watch knows what time it is. A man with two watches is never sure.
"Well, art is art, isn't it? Still, on the other hand, water is water! And East is East and West is West and if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce they taste more like prunes than a rhubarb does. Now, uh... Now you tell me what you know."
-Groucho Marx

All done!
On Friday afternoon, shortly before Shabbat, I finished the last application essay I had to write and sent it off in all its electronic glory. Nine minutes later, I received an e-mail from the dean of admissions saying he received it, and now he can finally invite me for my interview. I guess he was doing his last flurry of e-mails before Shabbat, too. So anyway, I have an interview with RRC on Thursday, the 15th, and a placement test the previous day. Now I just have to figure out how to take public transportation to Wyncote, PA, which is about half an hour away from Philadelphia. This will be fun. :)

Now that I have finished my essays, finally finally finally, I can do other things I've been putting off, for example, playing stuff on accordion, writing letters, cleaning my apartment for Pesach, sewing a vest for Ring O' Bells (sewing party this afternoon), going dancing (at Irving Plaza tonight, with Harlem Renaissance Orchestra), writing about the time I spent in Boston several weeks ago, and telling you all about the octopus. But the octopus, like the Boston Report, deserves a separate post.
