I can do the 29th or 30th.

So 'On The Road' @ 50 gets all this attention. What about Atlas Shrugged? (Thanks, BTW, to TGL for the libertarian URL posted earlier)

Rand was a lovesick fascist.

There was a cartoon in The Atlantic awhile ago that supports my claim... can't find it.

POTD. Saw her protégé Leonard Peikoff speak at Northeastern a few years ago. What a tool. I'm paraphrasing here, but this is how the evening went: Audience Question: You claim that _______; why is that true? Peikoff: Beacuse Ayn Rand said so. (repeat...) Objectivists = Lamest "philosophers" ever.

What time/when should we meet up? I might have to help a friend move at around noon.

Maddie Nigs has ballet @9am-10amish in my neck of the woods. We were thinking of going out to Lowell from the ballet place, but we could just as easily go back home and hang back for a few hours, fix lunch and head out around noon / noon thirty. I am guessing that means we would be there @ 2:00 ish?

hours of operation are 10am - 5pm

We'll be helping Mimi move at noon; not sure how much stuff she has to move or how many people will be helping, but I doubt we'll be good for more than a couple of hours of lifting and carrying at the most--G Lib has a cold and I've done something painful to my back. So the odds are we can get ourselves to Lowell by 3 at the latest. Is that too late for you?

I was thinking that we could have dinner afterwards someplace in town, too, if the fam would be up for that-- Chippy and I have to buy you a 'congrats on the new job' drink. PS-- Anyone else want to come? The chipster can fit another two (and 3 in a pinch) three in the 1992 Subaru.

3 sounds good to me - I will be in touch...

I'd like to join. Call me to help with the moving.
