Ghosts
"I do believe in spooks. I do believe in spooks."
Tonight has been haunted. I just received an e-mail telling me that "Ghosts are real." Earlier tonight I was listening to Sleeping at Last's album, entitled Ghosts. Earlier, while taking that God damned test Anthony referred to, I was asked whether or not I believed that the Holy Spirit (a.k.a. the Holy Ghost) really exists. All this while preparing to order Derrida's Specters of Marx. One more creepy occurence tonight: a ghost from China's communist past has resigned control of the military. It will be very interesting to see where this move takes China. Since reading this book and having its author as my advisor I have taken a recent interest in the affairs of China.
One final note, I would like to officially welcome Jake Sikora to A Failure to Communicate. He is my friend and colleague at Garrett and I am glad to have him contributing here. If you have not taken the time to read his initial post please do it, it is the most charming story I have heard about something that really matters.
