Gone but forgotten - NOT!
Longtime Classical Values blogger Dennis and I got together last night, and had dinner at the official Classical Values restaurant. This picture was taken later: The reason I'm looking a bit askance is because I had to balance the camera on the uneven banister post at the bottom of the stairway, set off the 10 second timer, and run into the picture, all the while worrying that the camera might fall off the banister post (which is raised and slanted so there's no flat surface for the camera). It made me feel nostalgic for the old times when Dennis had nothing better to do than write posts! (But at least he wrote one last month; maybe there'll be more...) Dennis related an interesting anecdote involving a recent Google image search for "classical scholar." He was looking for someone else and the last thing he expected to find was a picture of himself. But page 2 of the Google search bought up this picture -- of Dennis holding an odd-looking object: Looking back at the post, I'm realizing that I should have been more forthcoming. It's one thing to play guessing games and have fun with mysteries, but I probably should have made it clear what the object is. It's an onion ring! But not the kind in the famous Clinton Sopranos "Don't Stop Believing" video. The onion ring Dennis is holding is more, um, chaste. So.... whether your preference runs for traditional or classical onion ring values, don't stop believing! MORE: Coco has just reminded me that her picture is on the FIRST PAGE of the Google search for "classical scholar" and it shows her in this post reading a very important book! Take that liberal arts snobs! posted by Eric on 11.17.07 at 04:33 PM |
