"I do not want people to be very agreeable, as it saves me the trouble of liking them a great deal."

I want to live my life taking the risk all the time that I don't know anything like enough yet.
About Me
- Chris in NF
- I'm an English professor. I completed my PhD at Western in September 2004, and was hired at Memorial University of Newfoundland. This blog started out as my way of keeping in touch with people -- giving friends and family the option of checking up on me at their leisure without the annoyance of frequent lengthy mass emails. It still does that, but has also become my personal forum for airing whatever happens to be on my mind. You have been warned.
