helvetiusPosted something of a joke with evolutionary psychology in it yesterday before I realised it was the sort of thing that one has to be there to get it. So it went Houdini.
When I was ten, I was let loose in a museum in Christchurch. I can't really recall what it was that I actually saw, but I think the one collection I spent an hour staring at was the one featuring Mistakes People Made. Which means to say what you get are weird things like an ostrich skeleton with a raptor's skull. Very bizarre. I had and still have no idea what it was all about, but when I browse through my cousin's evolution books and when my tutor natters on about evolution psychology, the memories of the museum and the particular collection keep coming to mind.
.
I finally bought a 512mb mp3 player. It's small, it's a 10-in-1 and it's under eighty dollars. Except I'm really an old school CD sort of person. I mean, what does one do with 100+ tracks during bus rides? On the other hand, you could just listen to 10 odd tracks on repeat to catch details and squiggly bits you missed the first time round.
Yes, I feel dumb too.
.
Is it very wrong that reading up on Yakuza makes me feel all warm and fluffy inside?
