"All men by nature desire to know. An indication of this is the delight we take in our senses; for even apart from their usefulness they are loved for themselves; and above all others the sense of sight....The reason is that this, most of all the senses, makes us know and brings light to many differences between things." ~ Aristotle

so i don't necessarily agree with all of this statement; particularly the part that says sight "makes us know." i think there's more to knowledge than what is observable. but aristotle is more or less an empircist, so i can understand why he would make this statement. but of course this begs the question, what is true knowledge? and how can we attain it? i'd like to know what you think about this. email me. tell me what you believe.

so i'm sitting here listening to some coltrane and eating a few doritos when i should be doing homework, and i just looked at this little thing of honey sitting on my desk and thought to myself, "i wonder what honey would taste like on a ranch dorito." because for all intents and purposes, i can eat honey on just about anything. it's kind of like peanut butter or cottage cheese; i will put them on just about anything. my parents can attest to this; especially my dad. when i lived with him he used to buy jars of honey and sometimes i would just eat it by the spoonful. or like when you go to mcdonalds and they have the honey packets; i used to get five of those puppies and just lick the honey straight out of the deal. so i'll be real honest with you: honey was not made to go on ranch doritos. most of you would probably not need to experiment to agree that what i'm saying is true, but i'm just telling you for future reference. it's disgusting. and why is there a warning label on honey that says "do not feed honey to infants under one year of age"? what is it going to do to them? let me know if you know the answer.
