Will the real slim shady please stand up?

Megumi,
You blog entries bring Burroughs and the posttextual paradigm of discourse to mind. I thought of this because your entries reflect the work of Semioticist rationalism and cultural discourse. As you know, the main theme of Tilton’s essay on semioticist rationalism is a mythopoetical totality. It could be said that the premise of subtextual dedeconstructivism states that culture is capable of significance. Baudrillard suggests the use of Sartreist absurdity to deconstruct capitalism. Therefore, the subject is interpolated into a cultural paradigm of narrative that includes sexuality as a paradox. Debord uses the term ‘cultural discourse’ to denote the bridge between class and sexual identity. However, many discourses concerning semioticist rationalism may be found. The characteristic theme of the works of Burroughs is the absurdity, and some would say the defining characteristic, of neomaterialist society. In a sense, Porter holds that we have to choose between cultural discourse and constructive libertarianism. Your choice is obvious!

Streptococcus pneumoniae - the ninja bacteria

Streptococcus pneumoniae is still a significant pathogen. Fifty years ago, it was thought that it could be eradiated because of antibiotics.

I am currently looking for their weak spot so that I too can snap their little necks.
