small world/funny story about chris luna.
my niece was visiting her boyfriend at work and talking about how when he was finished, they were going to go to the red party. and chris luna overheard and was like “dudes, I’M invited to the red party!”
alas, chris luna did NOT show up to the red party.
Chris Luna never says “dudes.”
I miss him dearly. Even the Mr. Softy cabbage-patch which I hate so dearly.
I miss his laugh.
I miss his maniacal hand-wringing.

The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum – even encourage the more critical and dissident views. That gives people the sense that there’s free thinking going on, while all the time the presuppositions of the system are being reinforced by the limits put on the range of the debate.
-Noam ChomskyThe Scrabbled is a group of people blogging about and linking to all manner of things. Usually we argue and make fun of each other. Everybody knows everybody through somebody so there are no strangers here. Most of us have even met in real life! If you happen to personally know someone here and would like to start arguing with and/or making fun of someone, shoot John an email and ask to sign up. Otherwise, you're just going to have to read in relative silence. Sorry.
