What is the difference between a cake pop and a dango?

Why IS a raven like a writing desk?


Remind me glo, have you read Ursula Le Guin. If so which books of her's do you recommend? I seem to recall you reading her in the past but it may have been someone else from Wotmania / RAFO.

Why IS a raven like a writing desk?

A raven is like a writting desk in many ways but not in others. I am reminding of a quote (there are multiple ways to parse this 2000 year old quote.)


Now I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly, dreaming I am a man. Between a man and a butterfly there is necessarily a distinction. The transition is called the transformation of material things.

Note arguably the most important part of the quote is not the part of the quote I bolded, but your raven / writting desk comment reminded me of that.

How are you, glo?
