its late!!!

Non-Stop is the song i was thinking of 5 mins ago.

"Alexander joins forces with James Madison and John Jay to write a series of essays 
Defending the new United States constitution
Entitled The Federalist papers
The plan was to write a total of twenty-five essays
The work divided evenly among the three men
In the end, they wrote eighty-five essays, in the span of six months
John Jay got sick after writing five
James Madison wrote twenty-nine
Hamilton wrote the other fifty-one"

Salem Witches

I find the Salem Witch trials fascinating on multiple levels. The first being that I like to believe that magic does exist in the world, somewhere.

Secondly, I think that it's amazing, and mortifying, to see what happens when people let other people do awful things. How can the human race, as a culture, watch this happen repeatedly? Japanese interment, Hitler's Germany, African slave-trade...

Below is a link to a video experiment on social conformity. I understand that we are evolutionary programmed to fit in with the herd, but can't we evolve a little faster please?

I am a tortoise.

It took way too long but the blog is here... I'll get my life together one of these days... probably after Coppélia starts college... provided that I didn't decide to undergo this insanity a second or third time.
